Storyboard
Brief
Our teacher tell us to do music video. My group choose Time Alone - Jacob Collier.
Relection:
For this project, it's little bit complex because song choice that my group pick is like 5 minutes long. 2 stars act need to be expressive and lip sync need to be precise.

Smartphone role on January 6
Significance of Smartphone in the January 6th Capitol Riots
The riots use smartphone to spread the information to gather protestor during the events. They post it to social media like twitter on what's happening. According to The New York Times website, there were 100,000 location pings for thousands of smartphones, revealing around 130 devices inside the Capitol exactly when Trump supporters were storming the buildings. About 40% of the phone track near rally stage on the National Mall during the speeches. On social media sites uses by the far-right, such as Gab and Parler, directions on which street to take to avoid the police which tools to bring to help pry open doors were exchanged in comments.

Moodboard
This our group moodboard.
Reflection: Combination with 2 different colours orange and black which give different mood. Orange colour look more warm which indicate chill vibe and black look dark which give sense of struggle. Our group did it messy, we put random the picture randomly because when we listen to the song it's groovy. Groovy song often crowded like responding each other answer.
Development
This is our concept idea for music video project with the location where we plan to film.
Outfit:
- Soft colour outfit (2nd star) stay the same all day.
- More colourful outfit (1st star) would change. - Dhera
During intro part when only the keyboard sound we have 8 shots before 1st verse start.
Set in 2 different time on day time and night time. In the day time 2 star would be more relax but for the 1st star would be more excited when he sing the higher pitch tone. During night time, 2nd star show less relax side on the lyric:
The most beautiful girl in the whole wide world
And she's mine, all mine
And I want her to know that my feelings showI need time
(Gimme time alone with you)
Back to verse
Location
Possible location to film:
- Lapangan renon (night time)
- Beach (day time)
- School for indoor at chill out and outdoor at field area
Due to rainy season, we have an alternative to record it would be indoor for both day and night time. For indoor might be in school.
Reflection
I took this pictures around 8 p.m. Our plan when it's night time, we want to record it at Renon park (lapangan renon). There are 2 pictures of an ideas (I might add more) of which spot we want to record it (whether it going to be sitting down or standing up). Background for 2nd picture is crowded, there are lot of vehicles passing by and solution for this case would be picture 1 or finding place to seat on the different side. Problem might be the lighting because our phones camera wouldn't be good as camera. We might bring extra lighting like flashlight or use my handycam if the video quality good. Other ways we can record it, in case if it's rain is to bring an umbrella.

Statement of Intent
Statement of Intent
Genre | |
Pop jazz | Our group decided to pick the pop jazz genre because we want to popularise it since this genre seems underrated and it has a combination of 2 genres which give more colour. |
Song | |
Time Alone - Jacob Collier | The rhythm is enjoyable,the message behind this song is talk about spending time with someone special and it is enjoyable for everyone that listens, especially teenagers or university students like age 19 or above. That's the time where they most likely start having a relationship with someone special. |
Primary Target Audience | |
Demographic | Our target audience is mainly for men in teenager age like 19 or above because the song overall talks about spending time with someone special (girl). |
Psychographic | Based on interest for those who like to spend their free time listening to music while doing some task or chilling especially in the pop jazz genre. |
Secondary Target Audience | |
| Base on hobby and interest. | Audiences that like to enjoy music. |
Theme/Message | |
For the theme is relationship. For the mood it's depend on the time whether it's on day time or night. | We need to put more effort when we love someone. We represent this message by set it on night time and act less relax (more expressive) showing how much wanting that girl. |
Star, Personality | |
Star would be 2 Depending on the rhythm sound like. One of the actor could be more excited when the rhythm gets more crowded and the other actor is still calm. | 2 actors in this music video because we want to make it like the 2 actors are expressing their feeling to spend quality time with someone special. |
Representations (groups, places, events) | |
Place most likely would be record outside like in a beach or park and set into 2 different time (daytime and night time) . | We record in 2 different time. In the daytime, the set scene is where the person wants to be alone with their special one and spend time doing fun activities. For night time, where the person needs to put more effort to their loved one. |
Dominant Reading | |
| Base on the cast expression | 2 cast would act differently. 1st cast would act be more excited especially when sing the high pitch tone. 2nd cast would act be more relax and there is one part where he act less relax to show how much he want this girl. |
Audience interaction / Engagement | |
| Provide a world tour concert on the website and post where we have been perform on social media. | Most audience would like to see their idol on the spot, so we decide to having world tour concert on our website with the price on it to notify them where we're going to perform. Having social media, will build much closer connection to audiences compare from the website. |

This is for the magazine (Component 1, but it is still useful)
The demographic for my media product are females in the late teens and twenties.
In terms of psychographics, this audience likes fast-fixes of celebrity gossip but also want to delve beneath the superficial filters and representation of the Instagram generation. They want something more considered. When it comes to trends, they poke fun at the ridiculous crazes. My target audience would be the fun seekers and armchair rebels of the Youth Facts IAOs: work hard, play hard and have attitude. VALS (Value Life Styles) classification would place audience on the outer-direct category: they are belongers and achievers.
There is also the secondary audience of males and a similar age range to the sceptical main audience.
Since my target audience have a natural and healthy suspicion of the world, they are not victims of “fake news”. Therefore, humour and irony will be a key element of my branding and representation. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs suggests that “lack of prejudice” is part of the self-actualisation classification of consumption. This freedom of thought will be an important motif in my narrative.
I would like several of my images to shock the audience and take advantage of the hypodermic needle model of conveying the message. This should “attract” their attention in line with the AIDA principle.
There will certainly be disequilibrium throughout the narrative. I will use enigma codes and sustain the audience’s “interest” (AIDA) until the final reveal and the equilibrium is restored.
I think it is important to use celebrity endorsement. This one of Gillian Dyer’s Lines of Appeal. This idea also utilises the Two-Step Flow Theory so my message mediated through my fake celebrity.
Representation is incredibly important. I will use well-known signifiers that will immediate connote excitement and glamour. My actor will pose appropriately, directly gazing at the audience to grab their attention. The mise-en-scene will reinforce the sense of fun. Even some angles will be tilted to create that playful tone.
This Statement of Intent is intentionally vague so it can apply to many different briefs. However, you would need to be more specific and focus your ideas on your chosen brief. There are so many other theories and theorists that can be used, so please do not limit your own Statement to the ones in this example.

Media Ecology Plan
This is my plan on media ecology.
Explain what you think is the most significant change in the media in recent years.
What is AI?
AI otherwise known as Artificial Intelligence is a software which simulates human intelligence in a computer
Deepfakes - in March 2022, a video portraying President Volodymyr Zelensky calling his citizens to surrender to Russia was broadcasted in Ukraine24 - one of their national TV channels. The video was later on confirmed to be fake by the news channel who stated that it was in fact Russian hackers who broadcasted the video. This is a sign of the future weaponization of information. AI is a tool integral to the creation of deepfakes and as AI progresses, it will soon be able to produce more realistic images that could deceive vast amounts of the population. We would soon not be able to tell what is real or fake, we wouldn’t know what news to believe or not, pushing us to live the rest of our lives with scepticism. According to hypodermic needle theory, people may believe everything that the media tells them, This may be more true as this is on national television where people are conditioned to believe whatever they say as true. An oppositional reading of this would be to not give up the fighting, this may be held by Ukrainians or those that are media literate. In an attempt to make Ukrainian audiences more media literate, the Ukrainian Intelligence Agency has released a video guiding people on the dangers of deep fakes
Chatbots - With AI simulating human intelligence, they are able to simulate some sort of sentience like that of humans. By learning our speech patterns, they have learnt to perceive, respond and create conversations like that of a human. This has resulted in AI replacing humans in many sectors. One example was the creation of Kupid AI. A website which allows its users to interact with eligible bachelorettes created by AI. All interactions, profiles and voices are generated by AI They target those that are incapable of finding partners in reality. They provide a more instant sort of romantic diversion (uses and gratification’s theory) than that of traditional dating websites which leads to people preferring Kupid AI over traditional dating. As a result people are more chronically online. This issue is not endemic to a certain population but a threat to the entire planet as with the increase in access to the internet over time means people are more exposed to this AI. Kupid AI has the capability to target large variations of people as their AI can be adjusted to suit the different tastes of men across the planet.
More efficient with AI - Since AI was introduced, there are a lot of tools that can be used to help human work like Chat GPT. Chat GPT released on November 30, 2022 is an AI language model which allows you to give more accurate answers in a short time. In the globalisation era, more people are relying on technology. They use ChatGpt to give ideas about a certain topic or certain roles. For example, they could ask ChatGPT to make scripts for film production or certain topics for presentation. Another version of chat GPT is Chat GPT- 4 that is able to generalise and write some simple scripts. Chat GPT has potential to change the way we interact with technology, people are more attached to technology and they become more individual. People prefer having relations with an AI because AIs are designed to be friendly as humans.
