Music Videos Rock!




My team consists of Tu and Meagan, I have worked with both of them on previous projects.  We all contribute something to the production of the music video.  Meagan was the person that chose the song she's also the person who films most of the music video.  Meagan is also my best friend that I get in a fight with at the very beginning of the story.  Tu is the person I go to when I need a friend, she becomes my new best friend.  I am the main editor and the main character in the story.  At the beginning of our story Meagan and I get into a fight, I then find a new friend but "the end of the world" is coming and I want to spend the last little time with both of my best friends. Towards the end of the story we begin to make up but not everything is working out, in the end we all become friends.

I think the audience will probably enjoy the part where Meagan and I fight the most because it's really funny. When Meagan and I fight it's supposed to be serious but both of us are trying to keep a straight face and it' really funny to watch. I think they will also really enjoy watching the bloopers, they are pretty funny.  I also think people will enjoy our story because it is very relatable, everyone get's into fights with friends for doing something they regret.

We used photoshop and created a poster for our song, we also used all the knowledge we have about the rule of thirds and other types of things you need to know for filming.  We also used the knowledge we have about how to use the cameras safely without hurting the cameras.  I think one of the most important things I learned in this class this year is how to work with people better and how to develop strong friendships, I think this was used a lot in this project!

Lyrical Livelihood

Music is a huge part of my life, it's where I go when I'm upset,  it's where I go for comfort, it's where I go when I'm happy, and it's where I go when I'm excited.  My favorite song is "I'm Your Angel", by Celine Dion, the instrumental part of the song is amazing but the lyrics touch you in a way that's indescribable.  The song talks about how there is someone there for you no matter how far you think they are.  My favorite part in the song is when she sings "I'll be your cloud up in the sky, I'll be your shoulder when you cry, I'll hear your voices when you call me I am your angel, no matter how far you are I'm near it makes no difference who you are I am your angel."  This song is amazing, I also really like "Human" by Christina Perry.

Ariana Grande is one of our favorite singers so we all wanted to do a song by her, we also wanted to do a popular song.  My team picked "One Last Time" by Ariana Grande, we chose this song because it's a popular song by an artist we all enjoy listening to.  I really enjoy listening to this song and I am beyond excited to work on this project! I think this project is going to be the best we've done this year.

Our song is talking about a girl who lies to her boyfriend and realizes her fault, she wants to spend one last day with him.  We are going to make the story about a girl that gets into an argument with one of her friends.  She finds a new friend but it's the "end of the world" and she wants to spend her last days with both of her friends, they make up and all three of them become friends.  Every thing turns out fine and they are all really happy!
