We finally finished our commercial that was on Gatorade. Now, we are starting our new project where we are going to make a music video. I am so excited to make a music video and be able to do it now my group members and I decide. We also get to pick the song that our music video will be on. In our commercial, we had to film on campus, but for our music video, we have to film off campus. This gives us many more options for where to film which will allow us to be more creative with our film. While making our commercial, we had some things that worked and did not work. We filmed our commercial outside so we had natural lighting. This worked for us because the lighting in the commercial looked good, so we know that we can use natural lighting for our music video. For our music video, we need to work on editing since this didn’t work so good during our commercial. We had so many problems with the editing process which led to us loosing time for the development of our commercial.
The song we chose to do was 8TEEN by Khalid. We chose this song for a few reasons. This song is chill and also exciting. Since the song is like this, we thought that we would be able to film what the lyrics are saying to go along with the song. Picking a song like this was our best choice since we will be able to film it and it will be fun since it has a good beat.
The genre that our song is in is R&B/Soul. This genre usually consists of medium shots and close-up shots. These camera angles are normally the most popular and are used a lot in this genre. They film slowly and the camera doesn’t move very fast. The sounds are are mainly smooth and calmly but sometimes can be more up-lifting.
1. Costumes: The costumes are generally normal attire. In the music videos, the people wear everyday clothing.
2. Lighting: The lighting normally used is natural lighting or indoor lighting. They use this lighting because in the videos, they are mainly outside and indoor.
3. Actors: The people acting appear to be normal people and appear as friends to the music artist. This is mostly because in the videos the people seem to have some form of a relationship.
4. Makeup: In most music videos like ours, there doesn’t appear to be much makeup. The girls would wear everyday makeup.
5. Props- The props used are usually cars and items that fit the lyrics in the song. This is because the lyrics tend to tell a certain story.
6. Setting- The setting in these type of music videos are at normal places depending on what the lyrics are trying to say. They can vary from houses, the beach, or the mall.
