production blog- introduction to capcut

Image
Hey blog! Today I will be telling you about Capcut. Capcut is the editing app that we will be using on our music video. I have never used Capcut in my life. I want to be able to edit my music video and make it better. Capcut has a lot of different templates to use. When I first started I did not know how to add videos. All I new how to do was add in photos in the templates. I then watched a YouTube video on how to add videos instead of just pictures. Once I learned how to do that the project became much easier. After I got my video in I started to edit it. It took me a while to learn how to edit it. But once I learned how to it became easy. I was able to learn how to add transitions. The transitions would make the video look like it was using multiple different shots into on big video. Once I got the editing done I rewatched it to make sure it looked good. When it looked good I then added the music over it. Once that was done I rewatched it again to make sure it was good. I then edited

production blog- changing up the scenes

Image
 Hey Blog. My group and I where talking. We decided to change a few things. Our scenes wont be the same as what we put in the storyboard. These new scenes will be shorter. It will include me and my friends doing random stuff. There will be a scene with water balloons. And one of us eating fast food. The scene of us in the car driving around will still be there. And maybe on the beach. If w have any time to back the film that one. There is a new one of us in the pool. We filmed one of my friends playing basketball. We also took a shot of me and my friends playing tag and running around. We have 100 seconds of recording time now. So we have more than enough for our music video. As I edit I will have to be cutting some scenes out. Or just making the long ones shorter. This took a long time to make. I cant wait for the final product. I hope you enjoy. Talk to you soon. 

production blog for filming

 Hey blog. My group and I don't know exactly where we will be filming yet. But we have some ideas. A few of our scenes will be at the beach. Some will be in the water. Some will be on the sand. Or us walking along the beach. There will be some of us in the car. Most likely just driving around. We just want the music video to be random stuff. Like throwing water balloons or just running around. A lot of our friends will be included in this. Me and my partner Conner will be trading off jobs. One of will film some parts of the video while the other one is being one of the actors. Or one of us will be editing and the other will be looking through the scenes we filmed and find the perfect one. We will have to film the same scenes probably multiple times to get the perfect one. There will be 12 different scenes in our video. So this will be a long process. It will be fun to do this with our friends. Well i am out of things to talk about today. Talk to you soon blog.

Production blog about filming a music video

Hey blog. Today I am going to take you through what it is like to make a music video. Filming a music video is an exciting and creative process. It is all about capturing the artists vision and bringing their song to life. The location chosen for filming can give the overall vibe of the music video. Lighting and camera angles play a crucial role in creating and capturing. The director and the artist work together to ensure their vision. Choreography and dance moves can add an energetic vibe to your music video. Props and set design help create a unite atmosphere for the video. Costumes can reflect the artists style and enhance the videos aesthetic. Special effects and and edits can take your music video to the next level. Multiple takes will be necessary to get the perfect shots. The editing process is where the footage is pieced together to create a good video. Visual effects can enhance the mood and tone of the music video. Filming a music video can be fun and a good experience for e

group blog

    Hey there welcome back to the blog. Today I am going to be talking about my group and our song. I will be working with Conner Simmons. Conner is a sophomore in high school. I met him in the beginning of the year and we share the same friends. Were in this friend group and we hung out all over the summer. With him as my partner its perfect because we trust each other. We trust each other because we both know we will do the work. Also, our parents are friends. This means, our parents trust each other to have each other over at each others houses. I chose to work with him because Conner is smart. Also, because he does his work on time. I also believe that with us working together we could come up with some great ideas of what to do. We both have very creative minds that will help us make this music video great. Our song is party in the U.S.A. by Miley Cyrus. we chose to to this song because it is a fun song and we can use our friends in the video. Our lives are kind of like the song P
