Producing Our Music Video- Choosing our scenes!

Image
 Hey guys! So my previous blog talked about how we needed to relocate to accommodate our possible issues that we may have ran into considering our location was at such a public place. Today I’ll be talking about how we will be using cardboard cut outs and other household items to mimic our setting that we couldn’t go to before. For the airport, we are planning on creating a larger frame-type prop that’s labeled “ airport” to get the message across that that is our desired setting. Along with scenes that require us to shoot in a car, we obviously have access to a vehicle that we will use accordingly. As said in previous blogs, the song really plans it out for us step by step chronologically, so that we have somewhat of a format and structure to it that we can follow. Now this doesn’t mean that we don’t have any room for our own creativity, we can still incorporate smaller aspects to the video to make it unique so it isn’t so copy and paste to the original. We’re really hoping it all wor

Producing Our Music Video!- Figuring out Location

Image
 Hey guys! Welcome back! So we have officially set up and figured out our props and how we’re planning on building our miniature set for our different scenes, which will mimic the pop music video style of the song. The set shown in our storyboard in our scenes, will be a dialed down version of what we are capable of doing, but we will work to make it just as fun as possible and as similar to the original as possible. So for the location, our original plan was to go to Fort Lauderdale airport, to record certain scènes, but we realized that we have some slight complications with that plan. We had an alternative airport to film at, but it is private and an executive airport so we also didn’t want to be too dependent on this one, because it might fall through. So we settled on one of the group members houses. Our props will try to mimic the video and setting as much as possible, but as I said, considering our original plan fell through, we will do the best we can to deliver the most accura

Production for My Music Video

 Hey guys! For the music video, we’ve mainly been focusing on laying out the foundation for our schedules, our props, our location and all of the tiny pieces to put together this project. We’ve been analyzing the song lyrics to mimic the story of the song with our video, which is helpful because the lyrics are in chronological order of the events in the story, so it makes it very easy for us to be able to map out what we need to do. Our group hasn’t started filming yet but we are in the process of getting everyone together to make a schedule and a back up plan if we aren’t able to have our first choice location work out! For our editing we’ve already used Capcut so we are going to be using that again! We’re so excited to put this together for you guys! See you soon! 

Researching For the Music Video!

  Song- Party In The USA- Miley Cyrus CAMS: Tracking, panning, two shots, close-ups, point-of-view, high angles, eye level shots, zoom, wide, medium long, establishing, and aerial shots.◦    Action match, insert, eye-line match, jump cut, cutaway, shot/reverse shot, and cross cutting◦  Lip-syncing◦ Acting matched roles; for instance, Taylor Swift plays sassy and confident while the opposing people in the video behave angry and discriminating.  COSTUMES: Costumes were beautiful, vibrant, and bright, matching the characters. The entirety of the video's makeup is bright and vivid, matching the characters' general aesthetic.  PROPS: complement the settings by being vivid and striking, frequently serving as focal points that draw the eye. Sets fit the outfits, go well with the props, and draw attention to the main point and upbeat, cheerful music. Call Me Maybe- Carly Rae Jepsen  CAMS: eye level, high angle, low angle, tracking, medium long shot, medium shot, establishing shot, t

Planning The Music Video!

Hey guys welcome back! I’m going to be sharing some of the key components that will go alone with our music video!  Song: The name of my groups song is Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus.  props:  For this project me and my group will be using props. We will be using a number of different cardboard and paper cutouts which we will be drawing on.  Costumes: For the costumes we will be using a sweater and normal clothing besides that.  location: For our location we will be filming at one of my group mates homes and possibly the airport, however I'm not sure if we will be able to make the airport work so we've planned it so that a house is all we really need.  schedule: For our schedule we plan to film every Saturday or every other Saturday depending on how our schedules work. As we still are in a bit of a planning phase all of these factors may have additions or subtractions to them that we will figure out as we go along.

Introduction: I’m Back!

 Hi viewers! I hope you missed me because I’m here to share that I have another project for you all, a music video!  I’m really excited for this one because again I get to choose my  song. It’s also a group project which means I get to include my friends in this as well. Im not sure what song I want to use, and I’ll probably take my time choosing it. It needs to tell a story, and so I want it to be a good one. Music is one of my favorite things and I either am always listening to music, or am thinking about it. This project isn’t going to revolve around myself as much as the first one did. I’m sure the song will have some kind of representation of myself because I want to include that as well. I haven’t decided who to include in this project either, but I want it to be fun overall. I love Frank Ocean so the song is most likely going to be a Frank Ocean song. This is perfect because all of his songs tell a story about either himself or a common experience that many people have, making h
