UNIT 4 Clash of the concerts

UNIT 4
Context
In unit four we are working on the production works of what goes into a live performance.
Our assignment is to create productions for a live tour for a chosen band and create a live tour and we have to be the production group behind the scenes of a live tour.
Our first task is to create a group poster and a individual poster to advertise the live tour of our chosen performer.
My group chose to do Queen as it was a easy choice and we had a lot of examples of there old poster and live tours before and we could have a choice between if we chose to do the old Queen group or the new Queen group or a mix of both.
For our group poster we did a basic idea whee we could get ideas from to do our individual posters.
I chose to do my individual on paper as I'm not that skilled in photo shop and i don't have those equipment's at home. My poster was a drawing as i enjoy drawing more than photo shop and i believed my poster would be better that way.



The is my Queen poster chose the robot as a main focus as I've seen these robot in a lotto Queen live shows and old posters. The gold title makes the group name eye catching which entices the audience and led them on to read more about the information and let them read on more about the performance.
After our posters were complete we were given the task of doing a set design for the live tour of our chose performer.









Research
On the first week we watch a document on Britney Spears live tour in Vegas. We saw what goes into in live tour and how much work is there.
We had to research what the past Queen posters have looked like and what style they did there so we could have ideas of what we put into our posters.
I researched old poster of the Queen and i saw a recurring theme of a robot on there posters so i decided to put that into my poster.
On our set design we had to do a lot of research of live tours of the queen and try to see what there set look like and see what ideas we can get from them.

Planning
With the poster my planning process was to first get ideas of past posters from Queen from the internet once i got some references and ideas. I decided what to do on my poster for our first group poster a lot of my ideas was all put into one poster i didn't like it as i thought it was a lot of things that didn't match onto one poster.
For my individual poster i had a concept but i didn't know how to put it onto paper. I had to do a few extra more research of posters from Queen to see how they set out there format on posters. Once i had those i decided to put Queen name on the top and then the detail below so the audience eyes would go to the top and then work down.

Problem solving
One of the major problems is that Queen was a very old band even though they have been playing today there wasn't a lot of footage or pictures of there sets or live tours. When Queen was playing in the 80s being filmed at live performances wasn't as big as it is now where every minute of a live performance is filmed


Evaluation  
We started this unit as having a idea of putting together a concert for a band or singer. My group chose Queen i think we chose that as they were a famous group.
At the start of this unit we were told of production roles and organising a concert which we have not done before. By the end we had produced posters and a whole concert on our chosen performer i enjoyed this Unit as it involved Art as well as art is a extra hobbie of mine.
