Editing blog for music video project

 Hi, everyone I hope those who are reading had a great week so far, and welcome to a new blog. In my last blog, I talked about my partner and I being able to start filming for our music video. We got done with filming this week. Overall the filming process was fun but it took some time. It is because my partner and I  had to show my sister how to shot the scene and we usually had to practice acting out the scene. We are not experienced at acting but we tried our best to act out the scenes. There were times when we had to redo the video because we were either not prepared or we just kept on smiling or laughing. We also took many retakes so that we had a variety of videos to choose from when it is time to edit. When we finished filming we took all of the recordings and dumped them on Kendia's computer. Prior to dumping them, we had to crop most videos since we left them running to practice acting out a scene or to show my sister how to record. For editing, we used the Clipchamp video editor app, and we crop videos through my sister's phone. We preferred the Clipchamp app since we noticed from our commercial video project that it made editing easier compared to the VSDC editing app I originally used. Once we got all the videos onto the Clipchamp we had to look for a site where we could download the audio version of "The Lazy Song" by Bruno Mars. We used mp3 juices to download the song and upload the sound on Clipchamp. Then we had to crop the song since our music video can only be a minute or less. After, we then dropped each video to see which one went along the most with the song. We are almost done with editing we only have to dump some of the recordings into the video and also make our credits. We are almost done with the finished product. I hope that you guys enjoy it and know that we tried our best since we had to do it under difficult circumstances. Bye and see you in my next blog.

"The Lazy Song" Music Video Cover

Image
H ey, Everyone and welcome back to another update on our video. We have finally finished the video and added the last finishing touches. As you all know, for this assignment we were allowed to work with a partner or individually. We chose each other since we were in the same class period and thought it was best to have someone to work with. For our music video project, we chose to do a cover of “The Lazy Song” by Bruno Mars. We choose this song since we can relate to being lazy, procrastinating, or the feeling of just not wanting to do anything. We did have some things in our way, however. Kendia’s mom had changed her mind about letting her come to my house after we had already done our storyboard. With her being at her cousin's house we had to rearrange some of the days that we were going to film. Regardless of that, we were able to meet up and finish the music video. In our research stage, we noticed that many people copied what was done in the original music video. They had eith...

Starting the final task

Hi, my name is Melissa Meme, and welcome😊. These new set of blogs will document my partner and I's journey as we work on this final task. Last time, I worked on a music video before the winter break. In this new project, we are to create an opening scene for a movie. This time I would be introducing myself all over again. I am currently an 11th grader who is attending Fort Lauderdale High School. I am a Haitian American who is somewhat fluent in Haitian Creole. I am plan in the future to work in the medical field. So far I enjoy this class and love that I am learning all about films and the process. I choose to work with my best friend Kendia Banks. We partnered up for all media group projects together last year so it made sense to work with each other again for the final task. We are best friends and I work well with her so it was good to know we can group with those we knew. Seeing this is our final task we can then push each other to get work done. I also choose her because the...

Genre Research: Action

  Earlier this year, I had to create a PowerPoint on a genre of my choice. We were also given the choice to work with a partner for this project. Hence, for this project, I worked with my best friend. I talk to her every day and we are in the same class, so this was the best option. When picking our genre, we chose “action” as this is the type of genre we seem to watch a lot in the past year in movies and shows. When doing our research we watched and looked at trusted websites to acquire knowledge of what methods or materials are used to produce action movies. We researched what lightings are used in action movies. We also researched the angles that are used in action movies. We also researched the camera movements, mise en scenes, and sounds involved/used in action movies. From the information we obtained, some common lighting in the genre of action is low-key lighting and backlighting. Low-key lighting emphasizes dark tones and shadows and creates an ominous and suspenseful mood....
