Main Filming and Editing

-

 As of today, I have started filming multiple clips for my music video. I got most of the clips for my introduction of the video. I have to add a few more parts to the first half but for the most part I have it finished.  I started by filming the sunrise over my dock and through my yard. This gave a very nature like vibe and fit perfectly with the song. I then recorded some clips with my parents and brother. I got some clips of them hugging and other of them just casually interacting. My brother wasn't super cooperative but I finally got him to accept the fate and just do it. I was only able to get a few clips though because my parents were busy. I am hoping in the next couple of days I am able to get a few more with them and my brother. I need to also find some news paper articles either online or on paper to record, to use for a part of the song. I have some more ideas besides what I have previously stated that I might create and use in my videos but, I am not sure yet because I might just stick with the original plan. I have about half of the clips filmed, which means, I need about 30 seconds left of filming. I am planning on either finishing this today or tomorrow so that I will have enough time to edit. I'm hoping by the time I get to editing I will have plenty of video footage in order to complete it all at once. When I get down to editing I am going to upload all of my video clips and mend them all together. I will have to time up the visuals with the music so that it all makes sense. I will also have to make sure my video doesn't go over the minute mark so that I get full credit. I need to stick to my planned schedule in order to complete my project on time.

 This website starts off with lots of information about different great directors. As you scroll through it gives you popular titles that are being used right now and information on them. They then present  featured films, event titles, tv shows, and other categories of titles. They break their website into different subsections which include title sequences, designers, and studios. I like the way they break their website up into the categories because its easy to find what you are looking for. They also have a search bar where you can look up any movie and it will pull up information on it. On the website they have interviews with different directors where you can learn more information on how they decide to create different titles. Overall its a very useful website and I really like the style of it.

Research Blog: Music Video

 My Music Video is going to be for the song Six Feet Apart by Luke Combs. This is a country song that directly addresses the ongoing Coronavirus crisis and the social distancing aspect to life currently. In most country music videos, the singer is usually the main feature of the video. Most stereotypes lead to these music videos to involve trucks, boots, beer, and country scenery. Most videos are filmed in and outdoor environment with people playing around or dancing outside. Montages are often used as fillers for parts of the song when there are no lyrics or a clear message of what should be going on. Some camera shots in Country videos include medium shots, long shots, and close-ups.  Long shots could be a scan across a field as a truck is driving by. Medium shots could include someone sitting by a fire playing a guitar. Close-ups could be the singer with a microphone as they sing. The Mise en Scene is these videos is usually a natural ambient with very bright colors. The pe...
