Packaging 2

Here a better idea for the packaging... (Open version and closed version) think the one with the flap (version 2.2) is too fiddly, where the other version (2.1) is more practical, but doesn't protect all of the dvd (shouldn't be a problem though). In the first version (no flap) the dvd will not fall out and it's easy to take it out and put it back in.

Graphic Elements – INTRO – CREDITS

Use of graphics for packaging

















































Just an idea for the the DVD and the case (thinking card slip case maybe, then in poly sleeve with closing lip so DVD can't fall out. Chris - can you muse over the options that your suggested company can provide?) The DVD looks better without the lettering but I'm supposing it would make sense to stipulate the contents. Colin/Eleanor may feed back on this point - any other directions of things that need to be on there? General comments please. Looks maybe a little too much like an music album cover but hey, they're academic pop stars after all..

Credits

PhotoIreland Festival 2011 Teaser from PhotoIreland on Vimeo.

Just watched this little film and noticed the credits were simple and too quick but still did the job they needed to do. Using different faces and sizes is not something I think we need to worry about, but the simplicity and fade in pace are quite apt I though.

NOTE: Discussed the 'crediting' with Colin (as in cloud chamber and John's film) and he thinks having rolling credits is enough at the end. So it's a stylistic and informative choice - do we think it adds something visually to the look of the films and does it help the viewer to understand what they are watching?

Graphic Intro – Test 1-3



First (3 variations) experiments for the graphic frame of the film(s).

Crew: Philipp: 4h

Temujin Doran

The Tweed Run from Studiocanoe on Vimeo.


When we were discussing Jane's work and moving footage of her still photographs, it put me in mind of my friends Tem's work. His use of 'stills' or static camera shots in his films is something that I've always liked. As a photographer, that's not surprising and it might not be suitable for this project. But worth bearing in mind the power and potential suitability of the still.
