Introduction to the Music Video Project

For this project, I decided to work by myself. Because of COVID-19, I haven't had an in-person class. I haven't met anyone in my class, so I wouldn't know who to choose to be in a group with. Also because of COVID-19, I didn't want to see new people to film. I have a close group of friends that I have been seeing, so I will most likely ask them to help me. I normally never work alone, but honestly, I've been loving it now. I don't have to worry about anyone else getting their assignments done or not being able to film. I get everything done on time and my grades have been a lot better than when I used to work with other people. I love coming up with my own ideas so it's perfect in my opinion. Filming and editing without having someone else's opinion makes me love it even more. For the Music Video Project, I'm choosing a song called TiK ToK by Kesha. I chose this song because I really like listening to throwback 2000s music. I know every lyric to this song and it's a really upbeat song also. The song is clean so it doesn't have any bad words, which is perfect for a school project. The lyrics in the song TiK ToK are good for being used in a music video because there are lots of scenes that I already have in mind. I can do a lot of them in my house too, which is perfect considering we're in a pandemic and it's only getting worse. Some scenes are going to have to be filmed in the car. Others are going to be filmed in other outside areas. I might also get a few friends to be in the video with me. I hope the process of filming and editing goes as smoothly as it did for my last project of the commercial.

Starting the Final Task

Image
Hello, my name is Paulina Moreno. I'm in twelfth grade and I'm heading to college in the fall of 2021. I was originally born in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, but I've moved a lot since then. I've lived in many parts of Mexico, and also in Georgia and Florida, here in the United States. I've never really stayed in one place for too long, but that's what makes my life so fun. Everything I have experienced in the past has made me into the person I am today. My life is kind of like a movie, there are many ups and downs that shape the character into the person they are. That's why I love Media Studies. I want to learn how movies are created and all the different things that are incorporated into the film industry. I also want to learn how movies from other countries are made because I used to live in another country and movies are really different there. For the final task assignment, I decided to work by myself. Because COVID-19 is still a big problem in the United States...

TiK ToK (Music Video)

"TiK ToK"  For the music video project, I was actually really excited, but I had many questions. What song am I going to choose? How do I want to film it? Do I want more people in the video or just myself? What would I wear in the video? What props would I use? I had many more questions but I had to think quickly. I ended up choosing a song called "TiK ToK" by Kesha. I chose this song because I needed to choose a song that I knew the lyrics to, and I can never go wrong with a 2000s song. I posted my intro blog on November 13th. This blog was all about my song choice and if I was planning to film with anyone else. Then a few days later I started researching the pop music genre. I posted my research blog on November 16th. The day after, I posted my planning blog. This blog was about my filming schedule, my props, and my costumes. In the days after, I drew out my storyboard and posted it on November 20th. This blog is the most important in my opinion. Without the story...

Production Blog: Filming is complete, now continuing to edit

Image
These past few days have been really productive in regards to my film. I finished filming all of my remaining scenes over the past two days. I did this on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Tuesday, I went to the beach to film the driving scenes. I have a couple scenes that take place in my car, so I had to film a lot of angles and views. I went to the beach with my mom, because some of the clips don't take place inside of the car. She drove my car, while I filmed. She doesn't know how to film, so since the clips were from far away, you can't tell who's driving the car. On Wednesday, I filmed the scenes that take place at my house. Either in the driveway or inside. I was waiting until Wednesday to film these scenes because I didn't have the props for them until earlier this week. I used a cardboard box for one scene. For this scene, I had to be packing up my clothes, to represent my packing for the move. In another scene, I used a "for sale" sign in my driveway. Th...
