Intro to Music Video

We have just finished and turned in our Nike commercial. My group liked the story boarding the most because it was an easy outline for us to plan our video. Our filming process went well and it was quick to film because we had all the footage we needed. The thing we had trouble on was the editing on Pinnacle Studios. We are planning to use iMovie for our next project because easier for us to edit. Pinnacle Studios was slow and difficult to use. For our next project we are assigned to create a music video. Today we are planning what song we will choose without group and pick ideas of what we wanna do in our music video. We learned a lot about our previous project so we are ready to make our music video better, we have enough notes to make out music video great.

  For our music video, we are doing the song Slide by Frank Ocean and Calvin Harris. It is an upbeat and happy song. We are planning to make the music video very outdoorsy and fun. We chose this song because we like that it is a happy song with a good beat. We also chose it because we believe it will be a good song to make a music video for. The genre of this song is Pop. 

   For costumes, we are going to be wearing basic, every-day clothing. We want the music video to look modern, so we are going to be wearing normal, modern clothing. For lighting, we are going to be using natural lighting. We are also going to be using color changing LED lights to add a good vibe to the music video. For actors, it is going to be me and my other two group mates. We may include a few friends from outside our group to use as background characters. We will be wearing natural makeup. The natural makeup look adds to the laid back feel of the song. For props, we will be using a car, beach supplies, and blankets. We will also use phones as props and a skateboard. For setting, we will be going to use the beach, a bedroom, and a car. We may also use other locations that we find while editing. We will be doing pan camera movements, medium close up, and tracking shots. There will be no sound because the music will be the sound for the video. We will use jump cuts to show the transition between different settings and scenes.
