AICE Media Studies

Hello! I’m back again with very good news. Our video is complete and we are very proud of it. My group and I had a lot of fun times making this video and put a lot of effort into this. As you know there was some bumps in the road but we worked through them as a team and got the job done. I still hope to improve more as I continue on in this class for the rest of the year. I believe I have improved more since our last video which was the commercial. I hope to keep this work ethic up and get good grades along the way. This was a great learning experience because it was a different type of production than the last. I like to learn all these different ways and types of filming. I can’t wait to learn even more next semester! Thank you for going along with me for this music video journey, and can’t wait for the next! 

   Hello again! So today was actually very productive. My group and I finished up the last parts to be filmed. So we actually are done filming! We are now going to edit the video and look at all our of finished scenes to see if anything needs to be fixed or changed. We finished filming the beginning scene where darrow and allison get in the car, and just them walking around, and also them on the phone with each other. We got a lot of clips so we might need to trim some up for it to fit the time requirement. We actually used different parts of the song so the chorus wouldn’t be too repetitive. So we could have some different lyrics to present in the video itself. Like I said while we were editing the clips were too long so we had to cut some of them down to fit the time. We did this perfectly fine and we trimmed them. We also used a split screen for the phone call scene, this looked so good! After we actually finished editing, we had to once again, cut the clips a bit shorter because we

 Welcome back to my music video journey! I am excited to update you that more progress has been made. My group and I this time around have filmed the stargazing scene of this video. This scene was more difficult than we thought to film because it had to be dark of course. It took a different couple places to find with some street light to get a clip you could actually see allison and darrow in. We found a good place near Allison’s house that worked pretty well. We filmed from different angles to test it out. We found that the high angle of them was looking the best and most professional. It is hard to get good quality of stars on camera, especially with an iPhone. We all agreed we would probably have to edit in the stars on this clip. We do live in Fort Lauderdale where you can’t actually see stars very well because of the street lights. We did the best we could with what we had. Other than a little bit of difficulty, we had a lot of fun filming this as well. We also managed to film a

 Hello! I am back again with some much better progress than last time. I happy to say that we have started our filming and it had been very exciting and fun. My group and I got together over the weekend and got some good clips for the music video done. We actually had so much fun doing this and it’s not even over yet! So, moving on to what we did, we filmed the scene where Allison and Darrow are in the car singing the chorus. They were in very country style outfits boots, hat, jeans and a flannel. They looked perfect for this video. It took a few times but this clip we got was pretty good. The first couple times we tried to get the clip, there was some difficulty with remembering the words. They kept stumbling and it didn’t look the best on camera at all. They finally got it together and got the words right and we got the clip we needed! There was a lot of footage we took to have options when finalizing that specific scene in our music video. In the end it looked very upbeat and profes

   So today my group and I decided that we would start to film. Or so we thought. Our plan was after school to go to allison’s house and begin the scenes where allison and darrow are in the car. When it came to the end of the school day we began to look and call Darrow, but we could not get hold of him at all. That being said, we then just drove to Allison‘s house and proceeded to wait for his call. After almost 2 hours of waiting, Darrow finally answered and said he was sleeping at his house, and that he was ready to film, but needed a ride over to Allison‘s house. We all got in the car and grabbed him from his house and then proceeded back to Allison‘s house, because we really needed to get our work done. I was very frustrated and very determined to get this video started because I was very excited. So needless to say we were all very upset and annoyed. Anyways moving on from that, we started to pick out outfits with Darrow and Allison for the car scene. We are doing a country music
