Intro to Music Video

   My group finished our commercial. Now, we are moving forward and beginning to start our music video. While working on our commercial, we faced some difficulties when editing our footage. We struggled to add music at first. But, now after doing our commercial successfully we know how properly edit our video and add music. We are planning on using iMovie for our music video. The filming process was very easy for us when doing our commercial. It only took us a few takes to get the ideal clip. We are going to be using our phones to film our music video instead of using the camera. Everything will most likely go as smoothly with the music video as it did for the commercial. 

   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.
