POST #34 - PLANNING: DIRECTORIAL STYLE

Image
My choice for directorial influence is slightly unconventional, but it fits with my unconventional theme. My chosen style is the style of Jack Douglass. Jack Douglass, also known as Jacksfilms, is an internet comedian, singer, musician and all around entertainer. His brand is mostly known for memes and jokes, both of which are main focuses of his channel. Over the 10 year lifespan of his YouTube channel, Douglass has made numerous music videos, covering almost every single base possible. He's made songs spanning holidays (including Thanksgiving, somehow), historical figures, the YouTube landscape, etc. While his original songs aren't going to break chart records at any point, his music videos have amassed millions of views individually; impressive, considering that most of the time, it's a one man operation involving Douglass himself.  His editing style allows for jokes to hit harder, usually due to the deliberate cutting off of dialogue.

POST #23, #24 AND #25 - AUDIENCE RESEARCH

PREPARATION From the audience research, I would like to Investigate what the general public consumes typically, in terms of digital media Find opinions on different types of digital media from a range of age groups Find out which platforms and services are typically used to consume media, and if there's any correlation between services used by whichever age groups use them The questions I plan on asking are as follows; Which do you prefer; music videos or short films? What was the last music video you watched? What was the last short film you watched? How often do you consume either piece of media? Do you ever consume either piece of media as a part of a group?

POST #28 - PLANNING: CAST AND CHARACTERS

There are 2 main characters who appear throughout the entire music video, and another character who only appears at the start; - ALAN HAMLIN  - The main character.  AGE - 19 GENDER - Male INTERESTS - Memes, playing guitar, drinking Starbucks with friends FAVOURITE MOVIES - Shrek , Mystery Men , Digimon The Movie BACKSTORY - He's been on a bit of a downward spiral as of recent. He lost his girlfriend to a guy name Chad from a poor loss in a poker game. Curiously, he never bet her in the game; she bet herself after seeing how loaded Chad actually was. Alan had usually been good at poker, with all sorts of strategies and a dead-on poker face. But apparently, it wasn't good enough against Chad. So he's been awfully lonely. He's lost 90% of his savings to Chad, and Lisa won't even treat him as an equal anymore. PERSONALITY - Cocky (but he's working on it), doesn't give up easily, sentimental POTENTIAL CAST - Blair Liversidge, Eddie Pratt, Ellio...
