 Hey bloggers as you may know I've been working on my music video with my groupmates. As a group we decided to separate and each do our own style of editing. We did this so we could have many drafts and we would choose one for the final result. So I began by watching what we recorded. I did this many times so I could pick stuff out and see what needed help. After that I began to check out different editing apps and soft wares that I could use for editing the film. I was mainly focused on Cap Cut as I was more familiar with it and it was free and easy. However I got some suggestions from my groupmates and other sources. Getting clips from Constanza was a very difficult process unfortunately. Everything was glitching, clips wouldn't go through and we tried with many methods. After what seemed like forever, it finally worked but there was one issue. I ran into a storage problem on my phone and deleting photos and videos wasn't working. So I decided to send it to my laptop and ...

 Hey bloggers as you may know I have been looking for equipment for the film. Like I said before I did research on equipment and other items the group would need for the video. But as a group a final decision was made to start filming today. With that in mind we got straight to it and set up the scenes as to match the storyboard. As I didn't have any role in the video as a character in today's filming session I helped with other things. I helped set up the area and make things look neat so that the video would looks organized. I also helped a bit on recording some of the scenes. The film was taken at Constanza's house using different actors, props, and more. We got Enzo to dress up nicely and got him to use a white button up shirt and dress pants to make him look mature as he was playing as the father of the girl in the story. Then we had to figure out how to make the dog cooperate with us so that we can start recording as he was part of the story. This was a tedious proces...

 Hey bloggers today was another day I worked on things for my music video. So today I decided that I would look into what we would need to make our video. For the video we would obviously need props, costumes, and other equipment like cameras. So these items would need to be bought unless already acquired. This is where I started my research. I started to look online for things that we would need for the group and make sure it isn't anything too expensive. I would also look if the items were highly rated and make sure they weren't just scams. While doing all of this I also made sure they applied to what we were doing for the story. So I looked into high quality cameras that weren't very expensive and I found some that were around 100 dollars.  I looked more into the cameras to see if they had good reviews and more and I found some that might be useful. I added the cameras with at least 4.5 stars to the cart to give our  group different options. I also had to look into lig...

  Hey bloggers today  I started the production of my music video. Very excited and nervous but hoping me and my group do well. To start it off our group got together to pick a song that would match with our story. After we picked the song I did some research on the song and other songs similar to it. I looked at other music videos for some inspiration. I looked at the different effects, camera angles, sound affects, and more. Doing this made me get some sort of a understanding of the standard my group would need to meet. Our next step was to figure out where we would be filming this video and of we are going to be at multiple locations. We also figured out a schedule so we could meet up and work on the video. We also went and figured out the props we would use in the scenes. We had to know where to get the props and see if they would fit in well. Then we started thinking about costumes for the roles people would play in the video. Then we discussed the more complicated things....
