My Group for the Music Video

My group?

Just myself

I will be working by myself, To be honest, I wanted to work with someone else. I did have somebody in mind, but I ended up by myself as always. I will work on a solo music video, portraying a personal emotional view of my life. Working by myself will be better because I will be able to function at my pace without any possible interruptions. I will be able to use any app I want and according to my personal schedule, which is rather pretty short. Working with someone else is more difficult because you have to debate what your choice will be for the final product. It will take time trying to work together to make it work.

My song

The song I will be using in my video is titled 'Could Have Been Me' by Halsey. This song I first heard in the new movie that came out recently in the past 2 years, sing 2. I loved the tone and feelings conveyed by the singer's voice, it conveys emotions. When I first saw the presentation of this song in the movie I didn't get it for I didn't pay much attention to it. However, once I focused on the lyrics and their meaning, I understood the meaning and actually related to it. I chose this song because it is relatable to how I feel about certain points of my life. 

Why...

I have a connection to the song. Life is something precious that shouldn't be taken advantage of. I feel like many times we get different choices for something, involving debating over your personal want and another which is probably better for you. Seize your moment, don't say no, or deny what you really want just to end up regretting it later, choose what you want. Do what you like in life, don't care about being judged, and if others have opposing opinions, this is your life. It is about taking risks, and not living a life of regret.

Seventh day: Film Review

Image
February 27 / 2024 For the review, I had my friend Kayla review our progress and take notes on it. Here are her following, exact words: "I absolutely loved the title, Housekeeper, I just feel like it gave a suspenseful vibe like The Beekeeper. It was a type of one-word yet not a one-word title, and it made it very interesting. I also liked the slanted title design. However for the designs, instead of three, I wish it was two because I feel like the two bold choices, to use the simple bold with the more slanted one, and not the one all over the place. I liked the plot, it was pretty good. But you know, this is a high school film, and productions are not too perfect. Besides that, it's a really good film. It used a good amount of conventions. Definitely make sure to redo that opening focal point, to make it more clear that this is where the scene is taking place. Make sure that the audience knows what they are watching." The speaker expresses admiration for the title "...

Title research: "Underwater"

Image
January 12/24 What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? "Underwater" inserts its title following after a small speech. With an eerie soundtrack in the back fading in as the text appears. Then the title fades in, the letters in a crossed pattern. The credits are shown after in a thin font type, with a pure white color making it stand out in black. What images are prioritized in the opening sequences? It provides us with the specific water body and where the movie takes place. Inserting map markings and newspaper publishing about incidents and information about the place. Images of the structure found in it. And the probable sea monster, which is the main reason for the movie. How does the film establish a feeling of a genre from the outset? It helps establish the feeling of the genre, however, it gives off more first as suspense rather than horror. However, as it keeps on going, the information and images provided in the video bring up the feeling that there is s...

Fifth Day: Editing Overview

Image
February 25 / 2024 So far, my group partner and I are quite satisfied with the progress we've made in filming our project. We've been able to come to a consensus on the various shots we need to capture for our opening sequence, which is a relief. However, upon transferring the footage to our computer for editing, I noticed a slight change in lighting that obscured some of the props, making them less visible on camera.  Furthermore, as I reviewed the footage, I observed that our actors weren't always reacting appropriately with their facial expressions to the unfolding events. For example, our antagonist is meant to initially appear as a good character before gradually revealing their evil intentions. However, during the editing process, it became apparent that the villain's malevolent nature was evident from the start, which affected the pacing and reveal of the plot. I had to work closely with the actors to adjust their performances to align with the intended character...
