Music Videos Rock



Everyone in our team all cooperated well in this project and we split the work up. I will do all the editing, Michael did all the filming, Lester did most of the production plan and Kaz will do the album art in photoshop. After all the filming is done Michael will help me edit the piece. Lester will then go and help Kaz to do the album art. This is one of the rare times where everyone in the teams I've been in, where everyone has all contributed.




                   
                                                                                                Kaz, Michael, Raghav 

                                                                                                                                                         

I think my audience will most likely enjoy the comedy and acting. Me and my teammates chose the song because it was upbeat and we could do something creative with and like we said funny. We made sure everyone was equally included in every scene. I think the audience would like The fact that we expressed ourselves in the group lip-sync. We made it so there was some giggles in the audience. I think the funniest part would be the bloopers which already proved to be successful in the rough cut.



We used intelligent effects in the right place and in a creative way.
We used the ken burns effect which is when you make an edit to a picture so it zooms in a specific way. We used text layovers for some parts and made it better.
Another thing we learned from the year that we used was expressing ourselves. 
This was the only video I ever expressed myself a lot.

Lyrical Livelihood

My favorite song lyrics make me feel sad but happy at the same time and I like those kind of songs the most. It was about these friends that were splitting up and going away and the song was called "See You Again". It was in a movie and the song had a lot of meaning to it. The song also related to me because that's what happened to me when I left Austin, Texas and left my friends. It also has a lot of meaning and I love songs liken that and it also has a mix of rap and slow music which also my favorite.

Our team chose the song "When Can I See You Again" From Owl City because it was an upbeat song and something that would be fun to make a music video out of. We thought it is what people think in there minds a lot after a fun time with there friends. We wanted to choose a song that was upbeat yet was relatable. This song was easily memorable and is easy to lip sync to. This song also was pretty relatable, especially for middle schoolers. The last reason we picked it is because we can make funny things out of it the song which would be entertaining.

The visual story will be about your average middle schooler now days having fun together on the field. Soon it gets late and the friends must now all go there separate ways and go home. The friends are consistent and try to plan another day to meet up and have some fun. One of the kids talk to there friends and plan on a calendar. They then get back together at the Basketball Court and have fun again.
