Planning Blog for Music Video

Props

All members of the group decided that there will not be any use of props in the music video. We only intend to use actors and costumes during the filming process.    

Location(s)

  

The music video will be filmed in a few places. Two of them being the beach and a restaurant close by to the beach. The video will also be filmed on a boardwalk with all the actors walking together in a group.   

  

Costumes  

For the music video that actors will be wearing costumes to fit the setting. For example, because the video will be held at the beach and other locations, the actors will have to wear swimsuits or beach clothes. In other scenes like when the actors are at the restaurant and the boardwalk, they will be wearing casual clothing styles.   

  

Schedule  

  • On 11/13/2020 all group members will work individually on their introduction blog for the music video.          

  • On 11/15/2020 the group will work on the research blog together by adding their inputs of research and checking their groupmate’s work for accuracy.   

  • On 11/15/2020 after the research blog is completing the group will work on the planning blog and checking in on another to be sure of mistakes or limitations.    

  • On 11/17/2020 the group will create the storyboard of the project and make the blog along with it to post.   

  • On 11/21/2020 at 4 pm actors and groupmates of the music video will meet up at the proposed location. Filming is expected to end around 6:30 pm.   

  • Throughout the dates 11/19-12/3, the filming and editing process will begin. At this time all group members will work together to add the finishing touches to the project.   

 

Backup Plan  

Considering that we are in November we decided that having three locations will turn out to be better than one. For instance, if it turns out to be cold the day we film, we decided that instead of going to the beach we will film at the restaurant and boardwalk instead. If we must change plans, due to the weather we will also change the costumes to Fall/Winter attire to avoid sickness to the participants of the filming process. Not to mention, we decided to film two weeks before the blog is due just in case a group member cannot attend on the said date due to whatever reason they have.

Filming Blog for Music Video

Image
     My group and I have not decided when to edit our video yet. Looking back on the filming day it was very fun. I am both sad and relieved about the filming. I feel this way because it was really fun to work with my group but I am relieved we got it done. I had a great time filming especially because we are all friends. We were all in contact and started to plan everything immediately. I feel like filming is better than editing for us because we can't meet up this time to edit. It was a little hectic because the storyboard was not really matching up with our scenes. In the end, we found a way to make it work because we were not going to leave until it did. Luckily, in the end, before the sunset we got all our shots done. I am grateful to be able to work with them because they really know how to get work done. We have talked before about working together for the commercial but we had already paired up. This time we actually got to work together and it was very easy to se...

Genre Research: Action & Thriller

The action and thriller genres have many similarities and differences, especially when it relates to CLAMPS. Action Films Action films tend to use different aspects of lighting such as, three-point, low key, natural, and high key lighting. Like thriller films, action movies contain excessive use of make-up and costumes to make the movie seem and realistic as possible. Not to mention, directors use make-up and costumes to separate normal and abnormal characters within the film. In action movies low-key, high-key, natural, and three-point lighting are commonly used during film. During the editing process, editors of action films are more likely to use graphic and action matches, slow motion effects, and plenty visual effects. Especially in movies like Spiderman, Avengers, and Iron Man. As for camera angles action movies are usually seen with using aerial shots, high angles, low angles, and canted (Dutch) angles. Common camera movements would be pan, tilt, dolly, and crane. Moving on,...

Planning Blog: Scripts

  Writing the scripts was easy for our group.  Our group already had ideas in mind for what we wanted in our film and it all came down to write these ideas in a script.  To create the script our group has used PowerPoint.  Using PowerPoint has made our  scripts  easier  to  read for the group and for the actors.  We successfully made t he  shooting script  go hand in hand  with the sound and dialogue script . The scripts are always very descriptive when it comes to sound, lighting, camera shots, and camera movements.  Not to mention, that there is enough dialogue to keep the movie scenes mysterious and  intimidating.  All that’s left is to film and edit using the scripts and storyboard as our guide.   One of the group members  Anayah  oversaw writing the two scripts, however, everyone pitched in to throw in their own ideas. For example,  Kadia came up with the last scene in the opening and...
