Editing & Creating the "Boys Aint It" Music Video

-

 

I created two versions of the music video. I often try to create two because, it gives me the opportunity to share my ideas with variety.

For the entire video, I filmed on my Apple iPhone 8+, holding the phone horizontally. Majority of the films had natural lighting during both the day and night times. Leading me to edit the night scenes to have lighter tones. For editing and putting pieces together, I mainly used the platforms; iMovie, PicsArt, Lomotif, and the Video Editor App. 

For quick collage parts of fun photos, I used lomotif. To create or add colors/drawing I used PicsArt designs. Video Editor App allowed me to crop and edit the videos. iMovie was used to create transitions and put the videos in order.

I kept all filming shots and clips in an album saved on my phone titled, "Music Video." Here I was able to quickly find and import clips onto iMovie to build the video and add the order I'd like it to be in. I screen recorded the audio from the song through YouTube then added it onto to iMovie for the overall song. In order for only the song to be heard, all other clips and videos had to be muted by putting their volume to zero. After all the videos were all in order, I choose the transitions and made the video flow better. 

I put the videos in an order flickering from day to night with light and dark scenes. This gives contrast while also keeping viewers interested! 

STAY TUNED FOR THE VIDEO!! Only one version will be uploaded out of the two.

Our Pitch for Project! - Short Film

      We've been tasked with a Short Film that's supposed to be the length of five minutes. I am working with a group and spent about 2 days brainstorming and came together with ideas and we collectively decided on a product.    Our main pitch and film will be about a man and his wife whom he has just killed. She's been put in the trunk of his car and it will begin with the male actor closing the trunk. Afterwards he's being mentally strained and traumatized with overwhelming guilt to where hes hallucinating his dead wife in his car and around him. Playback's of their memories together will be shown to develop character relationship. The woman's dialogue will be her soothing/downplaying the situation because his subconscious is trying to relieve him of guilt. He'll be completely overwhelmed. Wrapping up the film will be him stopping and getting out of the car to then, walk out into the road to end his life.      The entire film will take plac...

Genre Research: Me Before You 2016

  Me Before You was a full on drama influenced and led by romance. A man was living a lavish, wealthy and adventurous life until his life changed completely after being in an accident that left him paralyzed. Louisa enters his life as his caregiver but becomes so much more by loving him and wanting him to find value in his life. But in all her efforts, his mind didn't change. A necessary convention of drama was character development. Within the movie, Louisa grew personally and it's because of her experiences with Will. In my film I'll be sure to include that development. Another thing that made this movie successful was the irony in some parts. Will used to jump off cliffs into oceans and since he cant walk, going back to his old life isn't even an option. Lastly, was the unpredictable ending. The continuous drama of what'd happen next and the constant rising of issues made it interesting and I'll be sure to take that into thought when creating my film.

The Drive, Short Feature - Reflection

  How do your products represent social groups or issues?     Our film isn't vocally or directly focused on social issues however when looking for a deeper meaning, an issue that prevails is the male's mental state. To have killed someone he loves, to imagine/hallucinate them in his space, to then kill himself is a lot to receive in a short film. As we forge through an era where mental health is prioritized, this film was an easy development to portray this. Boys and men are prone to be judged for showing or expressing emotions. In the film, this bottled-up self-hatred, guilt, and uncertainty of the main character led to his own demise. Applied to society, this happens so frequently that people push it under the rug. Men should be allowed to have and express their emotions without feeling empty or weak. We are all human and it's impossible to feel anything. Dean committed suicide at the end of the film by walking out into the road because he couldn’t take anymor...
