Additionally, this plan is only just a guide, as it's expected that we may go over a bit on time with recording the songs. But it is important that we stay professional and be the most productive when we can. It is difficult within the easter holidays to do recordings, but instead, we will turn our main focus on researching why are music videos important. and the aesthetics we would like to achieve. I think the most challenging part would be editing to videos as well as finding ideas for what to do, as we do not want to overcomplicate what we want to as we do not have a lot of time. But on the other hand, if we start to feel like we can not achieve two music videos then we will draw our focus on one instead. 

Additionally, we have not done as much planning as we should have done in the first week of starting our FMP and we needed to start making arrangements. In the last week before Easter, we wanted to make some arrangements with our music videos. Therefore we went to speak to Prim who is a TV and film teacher about booking some dates to use the professional  TV studios. Therefore, we have made some arrangements for when we go back to college which is positive forward planning. The dates that are available for our usage come to only two at the moment, which means we would have to make the most of each session, because we are using another department's equipment, we will need to be respectful. Making the music videos will be the most challenging, as we all don't have much experience with creating high-quality videos. I have probably the most experience, as I did film studies at A levels and I know my way around lighting and angle placements that I think will work out best. Overall this was the beginning of our first FMP week, we have not done as much planning as we should have done, regarding recording the songs on the EP and arranging recording time as other pupils will need to use the rooms as well. The planning process is still ongoing,  such as planning our logo and cover art which we collaborating with Harry Rawlings. This planning will be mainly made in the Ester holidays, as while we are at school we want to do as much practical as we can together.

Within the Easter Holidays, we had the Friday off college and this was a great opportunity to start talking about our cover art and logo design. We are with Josh's brother Harry Rawlings, who will be doing the art work. Both Fin and Izzy have been the main designers with creating the cover art and have done the communication on snapchat for the rest of us to be involved with. Fin designed the cover art that we can give to Harry as a reference, as well as characters and colours to use. We found that the Easter Holidays would be a good time to focus on our research and artwork as we will not be able to meet up as often as in college. 

Advertising our EP is very crucial, as we want to attract as many listener as we can. This means that our social media needs to be active, as well as having entertaining content to post. Originally we wanted to announce our EP to our followers on different social media platforms. We found the perfect opportunity to for this when we are all together, but because of schedule clashes we are not able to do this. I was the only one who was able to meet up with the others, so we wanted to come up with another idea instead. Which was to pretend that I am facetiming the others and then say to me "Freya have you heard about our upcoming gig?, it is our EP release gig" and then I will be reacting to it. This would have been a humorous way to tell our followers, but this idea did not end up happening. Therefore we have unsuccessfully been able to actually announce the exciting project of releasing an EP. 

Another part of pre-production, other then recording and creating social media content, would be creating the music videos. We have already started the filming process with the music videos, but there are some key pre-production elements that need to be considered. This area of our FMP is led by myself and Fin, I have already started looking at music video research, such as why they are significant and why people like watching them. As well as people we have had help from. The beginning starts with a plan and timeline. As a group we have sat down together to discuss ideas and locations. On of them being the TV studios in college. This studio has high quality cameras which we can have access too and get some really good shots of us playing. As well as another location is Kyran's field, where we can make the video look enjoyable and that we are having fun which is the main idea of the song 'Get Busy'. Also in the pre-production o the music videos, would be the change in plan as originally we were going to be doing two music videos, but found that making one would mean we ca put all of our focus on working hard on one instead of multiple. Overall this is what we have so far done for the pre-production of the music video, as well as me and Fin working together to come up with angle ideas as well as colour palettes of the lighting and maybe props. 

After we have successfully recorded the video, we will then work together with Izzy and Josh who are leading the social media content with teasing the video. Surprising our followers with a video we had fun creating. Therefore, this is the beginning process of making the music video.
