Week 13 blog

Posted on your blog, describe how your project relates to the rubric for the project.  Specifically, talk about how your project includes design elements (audio, textual, visual, motion),  CRAP principles (contrast, repetition, alignment, proximity), and MAPS (mode, audience, purpose, situation).


My project will show how the Beatles music has changed over time. In the beginning the Beatles were a popular local band but when Brian Epstein became their manager the Beatles became a phenomenon. Then it will show how their music reflected change after his death and let the their break-up. The audience of my project is any Beatles fan or anyone who likes the Beatles music. For people who are not as familiar with the music I have stats and explanations for why each clip is significant.


Contrast:
Through out my entire project I am going to keep the contrast black and white. All of the backgrounds will be black and all of the text will be white. Black and white keeps it simple and allows the audience to better focus on the music. 
Repetition:
All of the text will be white through out the movie. I will use all of the same transitions when displaying pictures. All of the music videos will have scrolling text which will explain the significance of the song for people who dont know the Beatles music.
Alignment and Proximity:
All of my photos will be aligned right in the center of the movie, same with music video clips. Text slides also are are centered.
