The Gang’s All Here

 

                 

 Our group decided to stay together for this project. Joshua Newell and Aidan Jones are my two partners. Working together was easy and we agreed on many things. Joshua was great at acting in the last project, and Aidan was a great help with the directing and editing.

    In the next project, our roles are most likely going to switch. Depending on what song we choose, either of us will be acting. All of us will most likely partake in the direction of the video. I will most likely continue to edit, unless I am acting in the video. Our song choice will most likely determine who will do the acting. Our last project only required one or two actors, but the same may not be true for this one.

    The group has many different ideas on what we should do. We all like a vast majority of music genres, and that makes it hard to decide on what song to pick. Another issue with picking a song is whether or not we can produce a video that aligns with the song’s genre. Music videos on average are very expensive, and we of course have a low budget. Getting around that will prove to be a challenge, but I’m hopeful that we can produce something of quality. 

This project is gonna be much longer than the last, so we need to upgrade many different things. New editing, new shots, new locations - I’m hoping to try a lot of different things with this new project. Our song choice must reflect that.

Each group member is determined to bring something new to the table. We had a great time working together and want to extend that onto our latest project. Currently, we’re brainstorming ways to make that happen.

Our Pitches

      The group has several ideas on what we should make our video about. We have narrowed them down to three in order to make the decision easier for ourselves.      The first pitch surrounds two high athletes that play volleyball. The two are inseparable, but different in nature. One was always extremely passionate about volleyball, determined to improve and become a major player of the sport. For convenience, we will call this character Character A (or CA for short). The other character was never very interested in sports and was more intrigued by online endeavors (phones, gaming, etc.). This character will be called Character B (or CB). One day, CB is sitting on the stairs on his phone when CA is going down them. CA drops the volleyball in his hand, yelling for CB to watch out as it moves towards him. CB is caught off guard, dropping his phone as the yelling startles him. Miraculously, he is able to pass the ball back to CA perfectly and catch his ...

The Conference Call

       Unfortunately, the group could not come together to film this week. This was extremely frustrating because it set us behind for a few days. Many of us were working, and when we weren't, others had obligations they couldn't miss. Despite this minor setback, we still made time to talk about our film. The group decided to do a phone call to work out the details of the project. Again, we were focusing on the opening. We are unfamiliar with the formatting of the intro. As a result, we all had many different ideas on how we should execute it. All of us provided input on how we could change certain scenes and dialogue to accommodate the opening. Though small decisions like the font have not been ironed out, we have a clear idea of how we want the names and titles to be displayed. This may require some of the scenes to be reshot, but we are perfectly fine with making this adjustment to get the best product we can.      The group agreed that we should im...

All About Me

       My favorite things are art and pop culture. As a result, many of my hobbies are related to both of those things.       The main things I enjoy are music and fashion, which conjoin the two aforementioned topics. My favorite brands are Mugler, Maison Margiela, and Diesel. I spend a lot of my time watching fashion shows from these brands. A dream of mine is to become a stylist or creative director of some kind. I also enjoy thrifting clothes and looking for vintage pieces online. My favorite periods for fashion and general inspiration are the 90s and 2000s.       As a result, I often reference iconic moments in those eras in my art. I make a lot of different kinds of art. I have been painting and drawing traditionally for most of my life. Recently, however, I’ve been drawing digitally more often. I prefer it because you have an endless amount of colors and brushes you can use and you can correct mistakes easily.  Some ...
