As she lands on a photo of her and David, who is going to play our love interest, the song heather by Conan gray starts playing. This is where our flashback begins and the camera starts zooming in on the photo. Second scene                                                                                                                                                                                             - The second scene begins where the first left off.

Planning begins

 Hello Everyone! Welcome to my Planning Blog! Amid conducting all the necessary research to produce our music video my group developed our plan to produce our video... The key components to adequately plan our music video is to set up our costuming, props, locations, backup plans, and a schedule costuming:  the video will focus on average teenagers so costuming will be standard clothing for teenagers, casual wear props:  the hoodie that serves as a costume will also serve as a significant prop in the music video, there is a significant line in the song that reads, "I still remember the third of December, me in your sweater..." This hoodie directly corresponds to the line.   Schedule:  November 12 - my group and I selected our song and genre  November 12 - research was conducted to gain insight and idea on our music video November 16 - the planning phase of the music video began November 19 - my group and I create our storyboard for our music video  December 3 - filming begins

Music video research

  Hello everyone! Welcome to my Music Video Research Blog! Before conducting a professional, well produced media segment, commercial, film, or music video, adequate research is needed prior to production. To produce the Heather music video, my group and I took on the extensive research process. The first step was to review our sing and look at the lyrics to help us develop the story behind our song. When songs are turned to music video, the videos commonly portray the central message or story displayed by the song. So to properly convey a message we went through listening and re-listening to the song to get full interpretation.  To take our research to the next step, we began to watch numerous music videos using the sing to its' correct context to gain further insight. The artist of the song Heather, Conan Gray, released a music video, however his music video was not the most cinematic for research processes. However, this was alleviated by our group taking on watching over recreat

Meet my group

   For this new project, I have a brand new group. My new group members are AJ and Mac. AJ is my friend from my AICE euro class, I met her around 2 months ago and we hit it off immediately and decided to work together on this new project. I met Mac a few months ago as well. Except we share second period English together. We got closer over time but now, whenever we're together we're always laughing. We decided to pick a feminine yet fun and romantic song for our music video. We think it's going to be a lot of fun to execute. I'm super excited to start filming and editing with them. I already know it's going to be tons of fun. I think we'll have a hard time staying focused though especially since we laugh and joke about anything and everything. Even though I know there are going to be challenges in the future, I'm sure the video will be successful. AJ will be the perfect director keeping us all in check and keeping things orderly. And I already know that Mac

Back Again

 My name is Sarah Samuels, I am 15 years old and attend Fort Lauderdale Highschool. I am a first-generation immigrant with Parents from Jamaica. I have 2 siblings and 1 dog, whom I love very much. I was born September 28, 2006 and am a libra. I enjoy reading, talking with friends, cycling, shopping, and trying new foods. But more than anything I love meeting and talking new people. I feel like it allows me to immerse myself into the thoughts and feelings of the people around me. My favorite color is black because it is a staple in everything. My favorite food is French fries (contrary to popular belief). I have dreams to be a doctor, more specifically an orthopedic surgeon. I love the idea of being able to help people through surgery and scientific knowledge. My favorite subject is math and science. Math because I enjoy plugging in formulas. Though I also enjoy science I am nowhere near good at it. I hope to one day be able to major in biology to achieve my dreams and reap the rewards
