Critical Reflection Questions

   1. How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent in social group issues?  For my film I did it on a song which can connect to everyone in a sense of feeling. There are millions of songs that have been made and each one of the song writes strives to be the best whether its's country or pop. This also goes with the music video of the song. Everyone wants the music video to not only have the same energy as it would have in the song but, be something you can watch or replay in your head every time you hear the song. Most if not all music video's you see a lot of different angles which make it look and makes you feel another way towards the video. This song wasn't a song the you just rhyme words like rap and not saying rap doesn't tell a story in a lot of the song but raps usually don't tell a story like the song we used. This song can be compared to Memories from Maroon 5 and See you again from Wiz Khalifa ft Charlie Puth. These three s...

Music Video Blog

I'm really proud of myself for this music video I think me, and my partner did really good job. I wasn't nervous this time when it came to filming it. I told Liliana that we were going to do better on this project compared to the other ones and I think we did really good. It helped a lot that I've known Liliana since we were little and I'm comfortable working with her. I think the way we did the project is better than what we originally intended on doing. The biggest issue was adding the song when we were editing but I figured it out at the end. That honestly stressed me out because I was downloading a lot of things to try and get it, and nothing was working. It also made me mad because when I had to add extensions to my chrome browser just to try and get the song and at the end it was trying to make me pay. I had to delete a lot of websites that I was downloading for that and thank god nothing bad happened to my computer. Overall, everything turned out good even when w...

Editing Blog

To start off there were a few ups and downs when editing this film. After we got done with the music video which took place at my house we went back inside and we started editing. We edited this film on Liliana's computer so we didn't have to do it on two. It's better to just edited everything on one computer makes it faster. Editing this film didn't take too long but we didn't do it that fast either. Liliana's part of the editing was to do the transitions and I was in charge of the song. Liliana's part wasn't as hard as mine and let me explain. When you work with a song that could be copy write along with it, it took me some time to find the song. What I mean by this is I thought it was as easy as putting the song for my commercial film into the that project but it was harder. When doing the last project, I made sure it wasn't a copy write song so it was easy to find it. But, for this song it took some time and it took me a while. One of the options...

Filming Blog 2

To start off the filming so far is going well we have done most of the scenes that we wanted to do. Before filming we came up with a better plan for our scenes. We didn't want to do just car scenes anymore and so we thought about some better ones. We both pitched in some ideas and we wrote is all down on paper so we don't forget. We change some of the scenes because we thought they would fit in better such as instead of going into the car at the beginning we are instead doing to pictures first and the car later on. We also changed them because we were thinking about certain edits that we wanted to implement into the music video. Also, we based most of the song on me and I turned out to be the main character. Some other changes we made are that we did different scene such as now we are doing a scene where I walk to the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror and then I walk out to the car. Before I walked into the bathroom the scene before that was, I was in bed and that's...
