Introduction to the Music Video Project

-

 Hey guys, I back with another journey I want to take you guys along with me on. First it was an interview, then a commercial guess what I'll be working on now. If you guessed a music video you're right. Unlike the commercial, I decided to work with partners. I teamed up with Sydney woods, St. Flore Vernes and Julie Sanon. At first I was going to work alone, but than I remembered how working with Sydney Woods during the interview assignment. Working with her took some of the stress off of my shoulders, so I decided to work with her again. Later that day St. Flore and Julie wanted to work with us. I thought, hey 4 minds are better than 2. I've also known them since middle school so working together won't be something hard for us. That's how the group came to. We're four African American females in America. The most disadvantage group of people. In this world, if we need something, we have to fight that much harder than another group. This is why we choose the song Independent Women by Destiny Child. This song is catchy and also has a strong message. This song empowers women to work for their own and not to depend on anyone. Another plus side is the song is school appropriate unlike many of the songs out. Even though we hope to get the message across properly we also hope tohave a fun time during shooting.

Genre research: All the Bright Places

  Welcome back to our next and final genre research movie. The movie we chose was All the Bright Places.     The first thing we noticed about the opening sequence was the location since they were on a bridge.     The viewers can automatically assume that the bridge has some meaning to one of the main characters since she was standing on it. We want our location to have importance to the opening scene. We want people to be able to guess that the location holds an importance but not exactly what’s going to happen just by seeing the location. Viewers don’t learn the true meaning of the location in the opening sequence however they do learn the meaning of it by the first 10 minutes. Since we’ll only be filming the opening scene we will show the true meaning at the end. The opening scene only was at one location. It did go by fast but however our video will need more time to make sure the point goes through properly. The Mise-en-Scene matched perfectly. The male main...

Planning Blog: Commercial

Hey guys, I'm back with another blog. I plan on showing two different story lines. One story line will follow 2 track stars whereas the second storyline will be about swimmers. The actors for the track portion of the commercial will be seen on the track for majority of the shoot. They will be seen interacting before running and seen running.  However there will be a clip where they are seen at the store buying the product, Gatorade, after they are done racing. These actors will be wearing tights, leggings, or gym shorts paired with a t-shirt. If their hair is long it will either be put in a ponytail or wearing a headband so the hair could be out their face. The swimming clips will only take place in a pool. These actors will be wearing bathing suits, swimming caps and they maybe wearing swimming goggles. On October 22, 2020, I started my research. On October 23, 2020, I finished my research and planned out the commercial. On October 27, 2020 , I plan on recording all the track clip...

 Welcome back to my blog. All the fun and exciting parts and things are done. Only thing left now is for Saint to add the finish editing touches and getting it peer reviewed. From what I’ve seen the movie doesn’t seem choppy. The clips bounce smoothly from one to another. The sound also lined up nicely and it didn’t look like we were stuttering or anything. I hope Saint doesn’t realize anything wrong with our clips. If she does find mistakes I hope they sent big ones. If they’re small ones we have enough time to fix them or leave them as they are. If they’re big ones I work everyday this week except Monday. Hopefully she finds the mistake before then so we’d have enough time to either come together and fix it or enough time for us to fix it separately at home. I’m already starting to think of the next step, the CCR. Writing them out has already been hard enough. I feel as if making them into a video will only make the task much harder. I might completely write down a script and tha...
