Planning for my Music Video


     Hey blog! its me again. Today I will be talking about how my group mates an I will be planning our Music video out. Our song choice was "Are We Still Friends" by Tyler The Creator. 

Props:  In our music video we will be using props. One of the props we will be using is a cellphone. The cellphone is one of the most important parts of this music video. In our music video the cellphone shows evidence for one of the characters. Another one of our props is a friendship bracelet. This item signifies the friendship the two friends had before the problem occurred. The item shows the friends second guessing their decisions. 

Location: Our music video will be shot in two main places. One of the locations is a Maddie's house. We will shoot about 2-3 scenes here. The other big location is downtown near the beach and the beach. The closing scene will be shot at the beach. These are most likely the scenes were the video gets interesting.

Schedule:  My group and I have decided to meet up at least twice a week. We first met up on our Professional study day. That we all agreed on our song and proceeded to brainstorm on our story. At the end we decided to meet up on the weekend and one weekday. When we need to get work done online we call each other and discuss everything we need. 

Backup plan: Since our locations will vary both inside and outside we had to make plans about change of location. If we are not able to film at the beach due to certain events that happen we will record at a pool. If it is stormy and we are not able to do that either we decided to fill a tub with water and drown there. Most of the inside locations are at Maddie's house, if for some reason we are not able to film there we will relocate to another house or into a lounge inside of hotels and etc. 

Costume: In our video we will not be using exact clothing. We will wear day to day clothing. In one of the scenes we go to the beach and we will be in the water wearing bathing suits. Most of the clothing we will be using is summer time clothes. Our video is mainly in an outside area, therefore we will not be wearing hot clothing for majority of the video.   


That's most of what we have planned for our music video to run smoothly. Till next time, Karina logging off.

critical creative reflection

     In this music video I have learned a lot from my groupmate's and technology. The process wasnt easy but it was done. In our music video my group and I decided to challenge the conventions. In the genre most of it follows what the song is saying or shows two scenes but goes back and forth. In our music video we made a script in which we acted out what the song felt like for us. One meaning we had of the song was drifting apart from a relationship and learning to let go, the other was realizing your actions and feeling guilt after. An issue this music video represented was jealousy and how it can come over your actions. The girl (maddie) realized that her friend and boyfriend were cheating behind her back and she took action by drowning the girl. A group this video could affect would be jealous people or people who cheat and lead people on. It could help them to understand how their actions can really affect people from the other side and be considerate. This music vid...

Our Pitch

 Pitch A:  three friends get a ride home, one still waits. Who is the man that picks her up? Pitch B: Two friends get lost in a mirror maze but they see death in their reflection For pitch A it would be really interesting filming this, I believe that it would be easier filming this than pitch b. This film would be filmed at night because it adds more of a dangerous tension to the film. What I do not enjoy about this film is that its a basic storyline where the person gets kidnapped by a random car ride. On the other hand pitch b is more unique and creates a better tension. Also choosing a location to film this would be difficult as well. Pitch B would be a really fun film to be filmed. It would take place at a carnival and there will be a killer. We found this pitch be very unique compared to our first. This film would include a lot of tone and facial expressions when being filmed. The only bad thing about this film is that it may be difficult to film due to different availabl...

production blog: time to start acting

 Hey blog! its me again, today I will be talking about how my group and I worked on our project on Tuesday. I got dropped off at my friends house so the filming could begin. My group and I shot some scenes that needed to be filmed inside for about 30 minutes. After a while I asked if the video would be done today and my groupmate Maddie said that she would be busy after 4. This became a problem because one of our scenes is during sunset, which sets a certain mood to the audience when watching. After resolving that out we began to walk to the beach to continued filming. Once they reached the beached they recommended recording the scene off the sand First. it started off with us filming walking scenes mixed with facial expressions. After filming a few of those scenes I realized when we film the water scenes we will not have enough time to record the sand scenes in time. So I told my group that we should begin on that. So after some talking my groupmates agreed. In one of the shots th...
