  Scene 1- Features all actors getting in the car, and will show the actors facial expressions specifically, as it is imperative they look excited.  Scene 2- A close up shot of everyone in the car. It is meant to convey the sense of travel, so the car will be moving.  Scene 3- The actors will walk towards the fair. This shot will show the fair, and it will let the audience know the setting for the rest of the music video. Scene 4- Actors receive their wristbands. This will be an extreme close up, showing the details of the hands and wristbands. Scene 5- The next shot is important, since it will show the environment that the video will take place in, along with specific rides. Scene 6- Tracking shot of actors walking to a game.

  My group is doing a music video for the song "Good Days" by SZA.  In typical music videos, the lyrics are portrayed through actors, objects, or things in the different scenes. Music videos are generally meant to bring the lyrics to life in a visual manner. SZA's music videos use close-ups as the main camera angle to show her lip-syncing or extreme close-ups where lyrics are linked to visuals. Every music video, in general, employs a range of camera Shots, Angles, and Movements to create various moods, reflect various genres, and accentuate specific parts within the video. Each director and/or cinematographer develops his or her own distinctive style, which is reflected in the final result. A variety of shots are used in music videos for a variety of reasons, including relating to the audience through expressing thoughts and feelings, as well as showing the spectator what is going on. The camera pans to follow the artist or to depict the artist's performance. A filmm

   My chosen group for this project will be: Willow Rivera, Lucia Rodriguez, and Kai Lobban. I know these three personally, and this helped me chose them to be part of my group. In particular, I noticed that they each are very good at time management, an essential skill when it comes to the production process. I will be able to trust that they will each do their part to complete the project. With a team built, the production process should be much easier. Different parts of the workload can be assigned to each member so that less time is used up. As opposed to an individual doing the entire project, where one person has to handle, filming, acting, and editing all on their own. Teamwork is very important when it comes to a task like this, so I have made sure I have chosen team members that all get along well, and that are each capable of understanding their workload. For example, it has been decided that Kai will be filming the project, and that I will be editing. Now, this does not mea

    My name is Jacob Pineiro. I am a junior in high school and I am enrolled in the AICE Media Studies course. I have chosen this AICE Media Studies class because it piqued my interest. Film is always something I was interested, so this class was an obvious first choice as an elective. This class also offers an AICE credit, which is something that will help me obtain my AICE diploma. My goals for the future are to obtain my AICE diploma, so this course was chosen to help me achieve that goal. I hope to learn about the filming process in this course. In particular, I am excited for this music video project because I would like to edit. It has been something I have wanted to do for quite some time now, so an assignment is the perfect opportunity to do it. This project, creating a music video will have documented progress in the form of blogs. As for the music video itself, my peers and I have decided on an idea. The current idea is to make a video with the song "Good Days" by S
