 Props: Since my group has decided to do a a country love song, our props will include a car, cowboy hat, phone, and flowers. We are going to incorporate those to make the video feel like a typical country music video. This will add to the theme we are trying to portray.  Costumes: In the music video 2 group members will be the main characters while the other 2 are filming. Our actors will be wearing country style clothing such as, jeans, flannels, cowboy hats, and boots. These clothes are typically seen as the country asethetic and will add to the country love story that is being depicted. The jeans will be navy blue and the flannels will be red and checkered. They will appear casually dressed and not too clean, we are going for an authentic cowboy and cowgirl look.  Schedule: On 11/17/21  my group and I will further our research on conventions of country music videos On 11/19/21  the group will have a clear idea of what we want our music video to look like. We will begin making a lis

My group has decided to do a music video to the song "Meant To Be" by Bebe Rexha, featuring Florida Georgia Line. This is a country love song, I researched a few similar country songs with love stories in order to get a better understanding of what is expected from a country music video. ●  Costumes such as flannels, jeans, cowboy hats, and boots were apparent on the men and women in these music videos. The lightning tends to be brighter, establishing a sunny setting. The music videos also had a tendency to be set on an open road or field.  ●  Shots vary from establishing shots to wide shots, and angles such as middle close up and close ups are used throughout the videos.  ●  Editing such as split screens appeared often in my research and were used to display the male and female singers, harmonizing and singing back and forth. Fade in and fade outs were featured in these music videos, as they were used to shift scenes smoothly.  ●  Diegetic sound can also be heard in these vi

   Hello again! For this Music Video project I will be working with three of my classmates, Allison, Darrow, and Sophia. We are all really excited to work on this music video together. We have all actually known each other since elementary school. So we really know how each other are. I feel with all of us being very creative, this will be a great and fun project to do. Our goal is to use at least a little of everyones opinion and creative sides. We really want to make the video upbeat and happy. We have already began to brainstorm on who we want in the video, music etc. We have of course yet to come to a decision, but we have some ideas to say the least. With Darrow being the only boy in our group, we will incorporate things he likes to do also. We want to make him feel comfortable and included of course. So far, we have agreed on most things. I have never actually done something like this before. I have filmed videos but specifically not a music video. When I was younger I also use t

    Hi there, my name is Ella Wills, I am a junior at Fort Lauderdale High School. This year I am excited to be back in school with my teachers and classmates! I am seventeen years old. I like to think of myself as an outgoing person, but I do enjoy the company of myself more than anything. I consider myself pretty independent. I do really love to spend time with my family as well. I live with my stepdad and mom. My dad lives in Ireland and is still very close to me. I visit him twice a year there and its very fun. My mom is from England and we also visit there a lot too, as all my family is in the UK. I absolutely love it over there. When I'm older I would like to explore more on that side of the world. I definitely have a passion for travel. In school I try and be very focused on my work and put all my attention to getting my Cambridge diploma. All my AICE classes so far have been challenging, but I have been learning a lot and feel as if I have improved in my learning. In my med
