Starting the Final Task

Image
   Hi, my name is Jenna Lytch, I am a student at Fort Lauderdale High school, and I'm in the 11th grade. After completing 2 full filming projects I am now on my final task! For this project, I will be creating a 2-minute opening sequence for a film. I look forward to seeing what I choose to do. Because it is the longest project I will need to use a lot of ideas. While completing my final task I'm choosing to work alone. Although working in a group gives you more help, during the pandemic I find it would be hard. Working with others I would have to rely that everyone is able to meet up and film. However, because of the restrictions of parents or even safety, meeting up may be difficult.

Additionally, even if I don't work in a group, I can still use my friends as actors. This would help because we a...

Planning Storyboard for my Music Video

As the song is starting out the main part says "do you remember" this will be symbolized through the video as Actor #1 is remembering her night on September 21st. Frame number 3 will now have a up close shot of her hand. When the shot is up close you can now clearly see the two people standing in the picture. The picture is warm and colorful and looks as if it was at a dance. The photo is know extreme up close and is in the same position. As the video goes on you can see that the photo comes to life. This photo is now "moving" because Actor #1 had a flashback. In scene 5 you can now fully see actor #2. This actor is seen putting on a record for the music. Scene 5 is still up for d...

Research Blog: Music Video Conventions

 The song I chose called  "September" was created in 1978. This song was known as being catchy and it even reached number 1 on the US R&B chart. Because this song was created so long ago many of the outfits and themes has changed. Because this song falls in the R&B and disco category many techniques were used to give it that "soul"  effect.  Some examples include A narrative and story line structure, this means the song and video lyrics of the song usually has a story to go along with it. In this genre the singers would dance around and preform on stage. This meant that the camera angles would range from up close, to mid, and to long shot.  Because most Disco and R&B singers would dance on stage the music videos would usually be filmed during a concert. For example the song I am doing was filmed while they were performing as a group. These cameras would most likely use eye angle shots and low angle shots when groups preformed in the 1970's. -Popular ...
