Music Videos Rock!

My teammates are Raiden, Jhoanna, Ashley, and I. We didn't have that much things done but we still stay productive. For our music video my teammates contributed by helping out. Ashley helps us film, Jhoanna tells us some advices on what to do, me and Raiden does our parts in the music video which is about half of our plan. Raiden is a hardworking teammate, he makes sure that we get things done and tells us what we do so we can stop doing it. Jhoanna is like a person who cheers for us when she isn't doing anything but when it comes to her part she will work. Ashley likes filming so she is somewhat our filmer and does a great job at it. Were eventually going to do Ashley and Jhoanna's parts when we can, for now we are doing me and Raidens' part first because we have a lot to do and we should to the hard things so everything else is easy work.

My opinion on which part our audience will enjoy is the story. The reason why is because its about love and you know people will find one, one day. It can probably relate from your past or your upcoming future. That's basically the part that I think you guys will enjoy, there are some other parts to see but I don't know if your going to enjoy it. Either or I think this music video is going to be enjoyable for all the people out there. I find it interesting that most of the teams has to do something about love. Love is such a strong word to start off with, so we will probably encounter some problems.

For this music video it will show what we learned this whole entire school year by our editing. How we use transitions, effects, etc. because that makes everything more interesting. Also how we can use simple effects to make such a great impact on to the film. For example slow-motion can make things all dramatic and adds emotion. To make this music video awesome we have to work together and put together our brains to make it work. Even though we learned a lot of things, I forgot some of them. That's why we have teammates! To make us remember things. This project I think tests our skills, if we listen closely do Mr. Sanderl's demos, and to have fun. There is some ups and downs doing this project but we will work it out.

Lyrical Livelihood



In this new project my teammates are Raiden, Ashley and Jhoanna. We had the choice to picked a song to lip-sync and we decided to pick Sugar by Maroon 5. My favorite lyrics in Sugar is the chorus. In most of the songs I listen to my favorite parts are mostly the chorus. I am in-charge of part of the chorus which I will lip-sync. The lyrics of this song makes me feel hyper thinking about sugar.

Our music video is Sugar by Maroon 5, we picked this song because we agreed to it. How this song is organized, by the beat and all makes it a remarkable song. We know the song and it's lyrics so we don't need to spend our time to memorize it. Also, this song has a very catchy chorus that we can easily dance too, but we don't know if we are going to dance. It does have some high pitched points but we can deal with it.

Our visual story for this music video is about Raiden "chasing" me which relates to love. If you listen closely to the lyrics it talks about how he needs loving. Although he is singing to people who is getting married it still relates to love. We are re-creating that by having Raiden as the man who chases a girl (me) because he wants her back. We are going to add some flashbacks to make it look like they had loved each other.
