Intro to Music Video

Today in class we closed on commercial project to start our music videos. Some things that worked well for us were planning with story boards. Our group working together was really easy. Issues that we can fix is how we edit our project. 

We will be working on this project for a few weeks. We will be filming off campus at the beach and around town. We will be studying the conventions for what is in a pop song.

 The song that we chose to do is “I lived” by One Republic. The song was released in 2014 off of their album “Native”. This song is upbeat with music drops and fun lyrics. I’m really excited for this song because my group have exciting ideas on what we can film. Our whole group generally agreed and likes the ideas we’ve brainstormed this far. We are telling our own story with our ideas. We think we can express the fun of being a teenager and living in the city!

1)Costumes that will be included is casual beach wear and going out clothes 

2)Lighting will shift in between shots because we are thinking of a mashup type of separate clips 

3)Acting will be fun and more showing us having fun rather than being scripted

4)Makeup will be natural and everyday where

5)Props can include things we like accessories and brands 

6)Setting will include the beach, downtown and around our city

The sound will be overlapping the shots that are playing,

Some angles that will be included are high, POV, pan.The editing will include things like jump cuts and fades in between the shots.
