Introduction To The Music Video Project

I was given a music video project for my second one and I think it's going to be exciting. I think this one is going to be a little bit better than my commercial project because now I know how these filming project work for the most part. For this project I am working with my friend Liliana Rubio. Liliana has the same class as me and in the same period too. Since classes are all online, I don't know anyone else in my class other than her. I've known her since I was little, early elementary. She has been my friend ever since and that is one of the reasons I am working with her. Another reason I am working with her is because she lives really close to me. We both live next to the elementary we went to and that is good for this project so we can film together. The song we chose is called Don't You Worry Child by Swedish House Mafia. We took some time trying to pick out songs and which one would be better to use. At the beginning we wanted to use a Spanish song but then we realized that the translation of that would've took some time and usually when you translate music from Spanish to English it doesn't song how it's supposed to. So, we just decided to stick to trying to finding an English song and we found one. This one sparked interest in both of us, we both like the rhythm of the song. Another reason we chose this song is before of the story that the song has inside of it, you can hear it or read the story when you look at the lyrics. In this song he tells us about his past of his life changed. All the memories he has or had about he was little and growing up are in this song. I thought the song was pop or something similar but researching the genre of the song it says its "Progressive house, Big room house, Dance/Electronic," which I haven't heard of before but considering this is an 8-year-old song it makes sense. I'm excited to make this music video and I'm mostly excited to edit everything together. I think this filming project will be a lot better than the first one I did. I also finally found another two editing software's that I will be testing out to see which one I like better.

Genre Research: Thriller

Thrillers will use any film aspect that emphasizes the suspense or excitement of the film. Some camera angles used in Thrillers are close-ups: which are typically used to show a character’s expression or reaction to an event, point of view shots: which engages the audience in the scene by putting them in the character’s position, high angles: which could symbolize looking down on a character in thrillers, and the opposite, low angles: which could portray the character as someone more powerful of superior. High Angle Low Angle Camera movements commonly noticed in thrillers include tracking, pans, and tilts. Tracking is used to build suspense. The camera follows a moving object or character and allows the audience to anticipate what the scene is leading to. Pans can be used to show a comparison between two or more characters, or just to show the scene’s setting more. Tilts are also used to showcase a setting, scene, or character. Tilts sometimes focus of one subject, and the camera moves...

Today we final met up again to add some final touches to the film. Not going to lie, longest drive of my life. Actually i might have driven more. Either way that was a long ride but you already know I had music so it wasn't to bad. Even though that's gas money which isn't cheap if you use your car a lot. That made me realizes things. I should've just stayed home lmao. No I'm just kidding they needed me there. Wouldn't want to disappoint them when we needed to see each other one last time. I'm use to long car rides but when you're in the car alone it gets boring even when you have the music blasting. But loud music does wake you up so I never fall asleep even when I go to work early in the morning. Music is life and I love music. I should up around 3:30 nothing to crazy. I left my sister with my mom since she came home early because I told her I was going somewhere. We had to finish editing but it all turned out fine. So there was a problem uploading the ...

Sadly notice again we haven't been able to meet up this week. I sound like I'm making so many excuses and I hate it. You guys are tired of me talk about not being able to film all the time. I've only had one blog that was actually about filming so you can probably see how little free time we have in order to film. I also just remembered I have to go put gas in my car in order for me to take that longggg drive to Isabel's house in order to film. I'm happy at the moment though because tomorrow is my birthday so i'm excited about that. I asked for a book for my birthday from Warren Buffet. He's one of the wealthiest people in the world and I really want to become something big in the future. I want to get out of my 9-5 and be financially free and help others out. How great it would be to get my parents out of there jobs. My group is busy again like usual this week but I mean so am I. Isabel has games and practices like usual and I want to spend the weekend with...
