Unit 32 Assignment 2

Production Diary

I started my mind map and began developing ideas for my idents. I added images to it which show my initial idea for a music channel ident. Im finding it hard to come up with two more ideas which are different and original because of all the idents that have already been made. I want to come up with 3 ideas that are all different, where one uses just graphics, one only live action, and the other a mixture of both, so that I have a clear understanding of which one will be most successful and creative.

It took me a while to come up with my idents but I eventually came up with three initial ideas which I could easily make successfully. Hopefully they're clear enough to the audience and interesting enough to keep them watching.

Ive decided to go with my first idea which is the music countdown ident. I just think I can create this one really well and make it very successful as its not too difficult, but in the edit i'll be able to add lots of fine details which will enhance the quality and make it look more professional. I do like my other two ideas but i just feel like they wouldn't turn out the best quality. Also im not the greatest at effects so I wan to orientate my ident around live action.

My Ideas

ITV Guitar Pick
This is a mixture of live action and editing. Its set on some form of stage, in frame is a guitar amp, and the bottom of a mic stand. The performer then walks past with the guitar and his pick and places them on the amp, then walks out of shot. the camera then tracks up towards the pick which has the itv logo printed on it. at this point it fades to the logo on a one colour background.

Reality walk through
For this ident I will have the female actress sat in her living room, the would then get up and open the door into a completely different set which has similar aesthetics to a reality TV show, she will then walk through other doors and she will enter different reality TV settings which are famous and well known. Finally she will sit back in her living room with her TV remote in her hand. The camera will pan 180* to an over the shoulder shot of her TV which will show the itv logo in a separate ident, in essence we have "ident inception". 

Musical time travel
This ident will be all editing and will consist of many different music stars from past to present, all merged  together in a slow paced montage to their music. It will show their iconic logos which are all different and unique which will add variation to the ident and it will make it easier for the audience to recognise the musicians. It will be in chronological order from the oldest artists right up to the current up to date artists. It will show the development of music through time and give an idea of the types of programmes that will be aired on the channel.
