AICE Media Studies

My Music Video represents the LGBTIQQ community. It does this by showing two people of the same gender being in love with each other. In the music video it shows Sofia as the popular cheerleader trope crushing on Jenna the Nerdy girl. It also addresses the challenges of the social status in high school. It used the last scene to show the love between the two girls. The Song was originally addressed to a male, but it was shifted toward a girl. This Music Video engages with the LGBTIQQ community helping them have a voice. It gives them a sense of comfort knowing that they have a Music Video they can relate to. This brings attention to the struggles of the LGBTIQQ community and makes them aware this helps attract and capture the audience. The Music Video will be distributed through YouTube. Also, the Music Video will be distributed through blogs and media sources online. In the beginning I did not know how to edit on apples editing software. Now I've learned how to edit on apples soft

 

 I have finally finished the music video. Now it is time for the fun. After finishing the music video I had time to relax. I showed my family members the music video and they congratulated me. I also  decided to look at it during study hall with my friends and they loved it. After that I had a good tine focusing on other classes. I conversed with my group members of how well of a job my group did and celebrated. It was finally complete all the work and the steps it took was worth the final product. I was ecstatic about how much better my group did. After learning the process now the music video was a total success. I got to stay after school and practice basketball. Before that I went to star and studied for the day. When I went home I decided to look at how to upload the video on Youtube again. Now I am sitting writing about today's events. After completing the video there is less to talk about. But, I feel like the video really captured the power struggles of the LGBTQ community.

 Today I did not meet up with my group. I could not see them because of my school schedule. Production has ended and editing has started. I still have kept close contact with my group members. I and my group members are still watching videos to learn editing strategies. On the music video we have finished the transitions. I have had basketball games and practice so my time has been minimized. My group members are still in the process of lighting. The goal is to make the music video more appealing and interesting. Jenna has had a classes with me where me and her watched the video and looked at things the music video can improve on. I think that lighting and quality features is something that can change. Also the group can only meet on certain days due to schedules. Afterschool most group members have clubs and sports. I think that the Music Video has come together quite nicely. I think that the bonding the group did was great. It has helped the group speed up the production of the music

 Hello today me and my group were in class going over clips. I and Sofia went over a few clips and picked out the ones to use in the music video. After I sat down and watched Youtube videos on editing. I learned how to use cross cutting and doing split scenes. After that I passed on my knowledge to Sofia and Jenna so that they can edit. After that I moved onto learning how to overlap audio and create a music video that is in sync. Then I came and helped Sofia put the audio clips together. Afterwards I set up memories of the behind the scenes. Me and my group watched the videos and felt great. Sunday's meet for production was great. My group talked about all the fun stuff that occurred. Also my group looked at other music videos by people known mutually. It was great to see example from peers it really helped my group see where they were at. I loved Omnia's music video it was the same song with a twist of best friends instead of lover's. Also Savannah went over all the backg

 Me and my group finally met up to shoot the music video. I went to Jenna's house to shoot the film we had different areas for different scenes. Also I and my group members brought in multiple people to shoot the film. While walking into Jenna's House I was greeted by her 3 dogs ands made my way to her room to go over our storyboard and review how we want scenes to come out. Next after every person made it to the house to shoot I started recording for my groups production. I recorded behind the scenes and recorded multiple scenes. The first scene was taken place in Jenna's room with her and her ukulele. Second scene that took place was a kitchen scene of Jenna arguing with savannah over the phone. After I went into Jenna's brothers room to record Savannah being yelled at over the phone. Next I went and shot Jenna picking out clothes in her room. Afterwards the group went and shot Jenna and Sofia in the car while listening to Taylor swift. After that the group took a bre

 I have not been able to film because of my tough and strict schedule. Because of my practice right after school I haven't been able to get with my group. Either way I have volunteered to use my camera. I also have volunteered to record most of the scenes. I plan to use my previous skills with making youtube videos to help me. With me only being able to meet on the weekend and my parents work schedule and distance between location the recording process has taken longer than expected. I've studied some shots of taylor swift videos and i've tried to imitate the techniques with some of my friends I live near. I also have looked at music videos that i've found interesting. I started to realize that I listen to music all the time. But I never actually payed attention to the angles and the shots. In the recording process I plan to have my music video taste seen in a new light. My variety in music taste allows for me to have so much freedom and thoughtful ideas. These ideas ca
