Music video storyboard

  Scene 1: As a group, all the subjects exit the car. This introduces the setting. Scene 2: They walk up to the carnival again just to add some foundation. Scene 3: The male subject loses the first game. It's just to add some comedy. It's usual to lose at games. Makes it relatable.  Scene 4: All the subjects are playing around and joking. This shows the teenage experience of just having fun and joking around. This is standard for any teenage film.  Scene 5: The group is walking up to another game. This foreshadows future events.  Scene 6:  This shows the group on the ride having a good time. Again just showing the fun experience. Scene 7: At the fair, the couple is planning to get food. We want to put funnel cake. This is an iconic food for the fair setting. And it's big enough to share.  Scene 8: We want the couple to feed each other. This displays their intimacy and showcases their romance. It is a common yet cute scene incorporated in many love stories. It fits in p

Planning my music video

    Hi everyone! I'm Jack and I'm going to tell you about what we're planning for our music video. Props: Since we've agreed to do a childish Gambino 3005 music video we are keeping the fair theme from the music video and adding a love story twist. The props will be the carnival ride and games that are played throughout the video. A car will be for the opening scene. A stuffed animal that someone will win for another. And a funnel cake for them to share. Costumes: Our outfits will be winter clothes. It is the season of Christmas and it starts to cool down and get chilly. We want to be dressed comfortably but at this time do not have decided clothes as going to a fair is very casual. Jeans or sweatpants and a shirt with a possible jacket is the idea.  Schedule: On 11/14/22, our group research conventions blog was completed for the video. On 11/14/22, our group completed the planning blog to establish the props, schedule, location list, and backup plans. On 11/17/22, our

Music Research

  Since this is a music video the first thing we need to do is look into how they are made along with some examples. I think it is important to look at what others have created to see what we can do. It is also very helpful when planning our own project. Hopefully one of these videos will give us a good idea.  The first music video I watched was 3005 by Childish Gambino. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tG35R8F2j8k I love the fair theme. The video mainly takes place on a Ferris Wheel with a stuffed bear next to him. He casually sings the song while gazing at the view. The video was very simple yet beautifully made. You can see all the lights and colors from the fairgrounds. This is something I would love to recreate and expand on.  The second video I watched was See you Again by Tyler the Creator and Kali Uchis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGgcC5xg9YI It starts in a bedroom. But not your traditional one, he was on a ship of some kind. The video mainly takes place on this ship. He is

Group blog: Take 2

 This is the first time anyone in our group has done a project like this. Some of the aspects may be new to us but we hope to complete it with no major dilemmas. One of our group members Sean has some prior experience with video editing and the rest of our group is ready to learn what needs to be done. Sean will be our main editor as his experience makes him more valuable in that aspect. Editing will be a large part of this project as we only have so much as for resources. For the rest of us we will be actors as well as writers and or planners. Brianna one of our other members is a part of debate and has to write scripts for competition. She has wrote many speeches and performed them as well. Her prior experience in writing and performing makes her an asset to the group who will be helpful with writing and acting. As for the rest of our group it is randy and I. I will probably be acting as I have little to no experience with editing or writing and am not afraid to be on camera. I will

  Hi I am Jack lynch I am an AS Media Studies student. I was raised in south Florida and spent my entire life within the united states. I have been around the country a few times but have yet to cross the border to another country. For me the use of media is a way to grasp things that cant be experienced in real life. I use media as a way to be somewhere I've never been or a time in which I wasn't born into.  Its a way to connect with the things I normally wouldn't be able to. Its the Spanish movies I watch with my great grandma or the comedy I watch with my parents. It is a means for connection. Normally I wouldn't be able to connect with some of my family members do to the language barrier but through movies I get to feel what they are feeling even if there were no words exchanged. The emotion created from such experiences is universal and I wouldn't be able to have such a deep connection otherwise. Another important aspect of media that I find myself drawn to is
