Introduction to the Music Video Project

 Hello Everyone, Happy Friday.

The next project I will be working on is a music video. In the music video that I will be working on, I will be working with my best friend, Melissa. I chose Melissa to do this project because we work well together. We have worked on other projects as well and received passing grades. We also help to support and motivate each other in other school work and projects. Plus, we live close to each other so it is easier to come together if needed to shoot, edit, and research. Furthermore, we are also in the same AICE Media class so this is quite convenient for us as well. We would not have to teach our siblings and parents how to shoot the angles and shots because we would already know how it is supposed to be filmed. This saves time and everyone's energy as well because sometimes taking that perfect shot requires a lot of patience and work. The song we chose to do for our music video is The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars. We chose to do this song because every day we always take part in some type of procrastination. Whether that be playing a game on our phones, watching tv, or just talking to each other about random things. We also often feel tired and lazy and just want to stay and sleep in bed all day long if we could. Sadly, we have worked so we cannot procrastinate for too long. Anyways, we hope that our project will turn out good and we are already thinking of possible shots that we can do as well and if we want our siblings involved in the video or not. It took us some time to think about the song that we wanted to choose. We didn't know what message or story we wanted to demonstrate. We knew though that we wanted to do a video that demonstrates how we feel on a day to day basis or about the things going on in our life. We found this song through the inspiration of creating the weekdays for spirit week and thought that this song describes us. Then we agreed and said yes this the perfect song.

Genre Research: Thriller and Drama

 In the genre of a thriller, many things add to how a thriller film will come out. The angles, camera movement, Mise en scenes, etc. The most used lighting in thriller films is low-key lighting. It adds an ominous and mysterious feeling. The common angles used in a thriller are low and high. High angles make a character seem small or inferior. Low angles make a character seem big and powerful. Mise en scenes typically used in thriller movies are darker tone makeup as it sets a dark mood or props that help to build suspense. Elements often included in thrillers are suspense, anxiety, or excitement. This helps to bring viewers to the edge and draw their attention to the film more. Likewise, in the genre of drama, many things add to how the drama film will play out. The lighting, angle, and camera movements all add their spice of flavor. The most common lighting in the genre is high key lighting and three-point lighting. They both add to the mood changes during the film. Common angles...

Great Value Water Bottle Commercial

In doing this project I have learned a variety of new things. The first thing I learned was a way to do transitions. From watching many other commercials and clips as examples, I realized the way they did their transitions that made it more smooth and easy. In almost all of the videos, I watch they used a median to transition to the next scene. For example, making the camera pass a rock, or go into the water, or pass a cloud. In this way, they were able to transition to the next scene, in which you saw the camera coming out of the water, or finally passing the rock or cloud, and then it is like BOOM a whole new setting. This makes it look cool and pleasing and changes it up than from just using a direct jump cut. I also found out ways to crop a video without having to leave out the beginning or end. Meaning that I found a way in which I could crop out the part during the clip that I wanted to be removed without having to go from that clip and everything after or before. This was extrem...

The Process of creating my Walmart Great Value Water Bottle Commercial

On Thursday, October 29th, which was my brother's birthday, I started filming my commercial. Originally, I was supposed to be the actor and someone would have been filming me. However, my parents are at work during the day so they cannot help me. Teaching my younger brother to take the shots would also have been too much of a hassle. Therefore, I decided for me to film and my younger brother to be the actor. For the scene, he was wearing gym shorts and a shirt with a pair of sneakers. I told him what to do and showed him how to do it for some scenes. He gave me a bit of trouble to do some of the scenes but I was patient with him and we got through most of the scenes without much hassle. In the first scene, I had filmed the area of my backyard so it did not require his presence yet, so he was inside putting on his sneakers. During the second scene in which he was doing the running scene, we had to take it a couple of times. Sometimes we had to retake it because I forgot to end the s...
