Genre Research: Action

-

I was given a project to choose a genre I'm interested in and follow through. It was done in a PowerPoint and I needed to identify the key characteristics and conventions within it. Such as lighting, camera angles, and how does CLAMPS contribute to the theme.

Planning Storyboard for my Sunglass Hut Commercial

-

  Creating a storyline for my commercial goes right along with my vision. I've looked at other commercials from Sunglass Hut to get an overview and inspiration of what I'd like in mines. I hope I'm not reaping more than I can sow.  For the beginning of the video, I want to have a variety of glasses pop up on the screen in a random order just blinking over each other. Its a cool and flashy into automatically grabbing the audience's attention.  Then have someone walking outside near trees or just in front of the mall with different angles and shoots. Ill do these in a long or aerial shots for range then zoom in on the glasses. Maybe it'll include an outfit change during this shoot for versatility. In the third box, I want someone driving, and once the sun shines SUPER BRIGHT, the actor will grab some trendy glasses and smoothly put them on and smile. The next scenes will be like a catalog screening and pan of the glasses in different settings. With ...

Music Video Conventions

The song I choose was "Boys Aint It," by SAYGRACE. This song falls under the huge, trendy, genre of POP! This genre is most commonly used amongst teens and young adults. Through this many artists get to share their vibe, personality, and emotions while having fun. With its range, Pop music branched out to disco and contemporary R&B.

  After thorough and difficult planning, I finally put together my storyboard and linked it to timings in the music video. The music video starts off with the me dropping/placing a cherry on top of milkshake because it links directly with what the lyrics are saying. Then switches to a scene with the male character on his phone texting different girls and answering the phone. Afterwards is another direct quote from the lyrics, where I'll place a box of ice-cream and slide in a slice of cake. The next scene is the artist singing along to the song with half of her body in the visual.  In box 5 is a scene of a group of girl friends that are gossiping to each other about boys. They're agreeing with each other and interacting. Next scene is a girl living her best life shopping and being happy without boys. In box 7, its a continuation of girls living their best life but i a different setting. She's at the beach enjoying herself.   Then, another girl or the artist will do a...
