Production blog

 I am really excited to start this new project! This is my first time blogging about it, and I can't wait to get into all the details. First, we had to decide what each person was doing, which was a little hard. A particular member of our group wanted to be included more. Even though this person agreed to just film and edit. They felt a little left out which I can completely understand due to the music video being about friends. I would feel the same way because we aren't just groupmates. We are friends outside of this project. We ended up coming up with a solution. The solution is that we change whose filming from time to time so that everyone is included. I liked this solution because no one will be left out. I rarely run into hiccups like this when I work with people. I was glad to see that would resolve the issue and keep on moving forward. Another smaller issue we ran into was when we would start our first shoot. We couldn't decide on a day which was hard. We each do lots around the school and have jobs so we had to figure this out. Eventually, we all agreed on a set day where we would film. We are filming 2 of the 3 parts on this day, making it easier. I can't wait to start filming. I just hope it isn't raining when we do.

Storyboard blog

 Hi! For our music video, we needed to create a plan which is why we created a story board. In scene 1, we will be recorded from the backseat… so you’ll be able to see the back of the driver and passengers head, singing the song two seater by Tyler the creator at 3:47. At that time the song goes “can you roll my window up”. In scene 2, at 3:53 they’re still arguing about the window being down and she says “because it’s windy” etc. still recorded from the same angle. In scene 3, then at 3:59 of the song he says “but I love when your hair blows” and the video will be shot from her passenger seat window. She’s smiling as they ride down the road. In scene 4, 4:05 it shows the same thing… her smiling and staring out of the window but it will be from a different angle. In scene 5, the group (Nijah, Callie, Imani) will be playing at the park while Adrian (Camera Man) records us. There will be no dialogue here only the song playing in the background. In scene 6, 4:17 still no dialogue but ...

Introduction to the Music Video

 Hi! I am done with the first project and it's time for the next. I really did enjoy the first one and it was fun. To introduce myself again, my name is Callie Brown. I am a junior at Fort Lauderdale High School in the Cambridge program. I love hanging out with friends and going to Barnes and Noble. Barnes and Noble is one of my favorite places because I work better in workspaces. I love hanging out with friends because it is a way to destress after doing lots of schoolwork. I took Aice media studies because I love movies. Watching movies is one of my favorite hobbies, and Jordan Peele is my favorite director. My favorite film distributor is A24 because my favorite movies are from them, such as Waves, Moonlight, and Mid90s. A24 produces the best movies for me because they are all so deep and have a significant meaning. Another reason I took this class is because of the high passing rate, thanks to our great teachers.  I also love listening to music because it fits every feelin...

  1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?  My friends and I chose to defy genre traditions for our music video. During the research process, I looked at various rap songs' music videos, specifically those by the same artist (Tyler, The Creator). Because Tyler, the Creator, is such a well-known artist, my initial assumption was that I could base our music video on his general themes. Tyler has a very unique way of producing music videos with surprising outfits and outlandish setups. For example, in the music video “See You Again” Tyler has a set on a naval ship and a small boat at sea, so the idea of trying to make our video similar to Tyler’s music videos was abandoned. That would ultimately be unattainable for my group. We didn't have any money to spend on costumes, sets, or activities. This is why we decided to focus on the fundamentals of our relationships. Friendship. Rather than creating a video about money,...
