Group Blog

Hey everyone, it is finally time to begin this wonderful music video. As I mentioned in my previous blog, I will be selecting my group members for this project and explain why I made that selection. In addition to that, I will also mention our song choice that we have chosen as a group and also explain why we made that selection. So to begin with, the group members that I have selected is Joao N., Enzo P., and Constanza C. I am extremely excited to work with them not only because they are my friends but also I know that they are very productive when It comes to school. They end up getting their priorites done and are super responsible which is why I am trusting them and selected them to work with me for this exciting music video. The roles of each individual have not been selected yet as we didn't have that much time to discuss about that. However, the next time we discuss, selecting out roles will be our first priority so we can organize and have this project flow smoothly. Furthermore, me and my group members are all in differenet periods so we decided to create a group chat so we can have a way to communicate to each other. We facetimed each other so we can brainstorm and talk our ideas out to come with a final conclusion. So first, we had to come up with a genre for our song selection. As we talked it through we came up with 3 options which are sad, R&B, and hip hop, which are all very different from each other. We researched a couple of songs in those genres and we came into a conclusion of two songs which are 7 years by Lukas Graham or How to save a life by The Fray. Our final decision was 7 years by Lukas Graham because we though about the idea of our music video being about a boy growing up with his dog and as he gets older, the dog starts getting ill. This will bring out a message that time is treasure, use your time wisely with the ones you love the most. I found this message fit in very well and I loved this idea that we came up together as a group. Also some other ideas that we thought would help our video is using a bald head wig and fake mustache. We also plan on using Constanzas dog as the dog of the video and we will use some toys like a tennis ball and etc. After we brainstormed the ideas of the video we then started deciding on the location that the video will take place. We came up with a variety of different locations for instance, communities, dog parks, and some other places outisde of our school. This video will turn out amazing, I can already feel it. We made great progress planning virtually almost every detail of our film, and I can't wait to see the finished product. So stick around because it will be worthwhile, I can guarantee you. Thank you.

Production Blog: Getting started

Welcome back once again bloggers. As you all may know, me and my group are working on a short film. It took us a lot of time to figure out what we wanted to film about. We had to make sure that whatever we decided to film, would be able to be adjusted if we have any change of minds. We also thought about what props we would need for the filming process. We figured out what clothes and props we needed to make it look very realistic. So when we decided on the roles we would play, we also thought about them matching our personality. For Joao, "PJ" in the film, is the nerdy guy, the guy that comes up with all the ideas. He is the smart one of the group. We thought he fit that role very well because everyone else in the group is very hyper. We were really stuck since Joao and myself could both play the role and it was overall a pain to decide on who would play who. We stressed a lot trying to figure all of this out. We decided to go to starbucks to lock in on our work. We started ...

Production blog: Website

Hey bloggers! We're back with another blog and today is another exciting news. Today we will be talking about our new website for our own movie. As I've mentioned before we were tasked with a website and a post card with our short film. As we have just completed our post card, we had to plan on how to work on the website. The website task is a little longer than the post card, so we have to start it early. We planned to go again to Starbucks but we didn't want to do that again. What we did was we stayed at Connies house and worked on it. At first we were struggling to find a good website template but after a lot of time looking we finally found something nice. We found something that matches our theme of the movie. So after we found it we began to fill up all the information we needed for the website as we had to include a summary, facts, date of release, actors, photos, etc. It took us quite some time to work on it as we would get distracted easily. But even with distracti...

I consider myself to be very optimistic, social, and energetic, besides many other qualities. Being active is something I particularly acknowledge when it comes to soccer as it is my favorite sport. I am a highly curious person, which is a quality that everyone has said about me. I constantly enjoy learning new things and expanding my knowledge. Moving on, this year I will begin a different task than last year. Last year as you may remember me and my group members had to complete a beginning to a movie, however this year will not only just be a beginning but a beginning, middle, and end. Im extremely eager to work on this project as it should be really fun. I've decided to work with a group for this project aswell. Nevertheless, I'm committed to making an excellen...
