We were set a project a couple of weeks a go called ‘Type rules.’ We got together in groups and each group were given a type rule, ours ‘don’t overuse capital letters’ which I think was a good rule, it had to be 60 seconds long and could be done anyway we liked as long as it was a moving image. My group was made up of Amber, Lucy and Tasha…. best group ever? I think so 🙂

Our original plan was to do a music video but it turns out we are absolutely rubbish at re writing lyrics to a song so it evolved into a nightmare sequence where lovely Amber was being taunted by too many capitals…. just imagine the terror!

I am so pleased with the final outcome, the song we have chosen (Baptism by Crystal castles) fits it perfectly, not just the style but the timing of the shot change and chorus too. Considering we had over 8 minutes of film we have cut it down really effectively and managed to get our main points across in the allotted 60 seconds (helped by Amber’s ninja editing skills too).

Here is our final film, hope you enjoy 🙂
