I chose to use an instrumental piece for my music as I wanted something upbeat and something that didnt give out the wrong message.

I chose to use a band called the Vandella's. The music works very well for this video as it is a repetative tune and carries you along with the video.

I am very happy with my final video. I would perhaps try using a tripod next time though as I was not too pleased with how shaky the footage was however this does add to the feeling of walking a

These are for my closing sequence. I am really pleased with this and love how the student manages to turn the paper over. Each letter appears on each key frame.

These are the photographs that I took for my main video. I wanted the student to show you around the university occasionally walking towards me, calling me to them, walking behind them etc, this added variety.

I also wanted to get the values of the course over to the potential students hence the brainstorm that develops throughout the sequence, there will be a new point show and developed on each key frame.

This is my final storyboard. I want a variety of students to appear in my video however this may be difficult as I am not in university full time and can only attend after 5.30 most evenings and many students have gone home by then.

I want to show a student walking around the university and showing them at different angles. Sometimes they will walk towards the camera, other times I will follow them and then finally the camera will pan around them to show the full view of the area they are standing in.

I also want to feature them writing as I want my video to be as raw as possible and have all the type handwritten.

Taking these photographs helped me to come up with the idea for my final plan. Originally I was going to do it as a tour from my perspective but having taken these photographs I realised that this would be uninteresting therefore I needed to to feature a student in my film to help to add a focus to my video.

These were my initial story boards for my video which showed a tour of the university. Some of the focused on the different studios, some focus on students working, some students receiving lectures and also the facilities of the university.

However I wanted to look more at what the university has to offer so I decided to take some photographs to help me focus on the key features of my video.

Handwriting

I found these stamps in a charity shop and would love to use them in my final design

Handwriting

I wanted to look at vintage designs. I love the old fashioned postage envelopes, air mail and stamps and want these to be a big feature in my design.

This is the info I want on my poster

Handwriting

I looked at handwritten fonts and wanted to use Journal. I looked into using a kiss or exclamation mark to add emphasis to the phrase. I really liked the idea of using a kiss though as it was emotional.

Handwriting

I wasn't too pleased with my initial designs and decided to focus on typography as image.

As I was concentrating on handwriting I wanted to use a handwritten font. I asked several people to write out my logo and this inspired me for my final design
