Production Blog: Finally a New Beginning!


 Food to fuel the brain!

    Hello Loves! Coming from my last blog you guys would know how I wished we were able to start filming already. However my wish finally came true yesterday. During school yesterday I threw out the idea of my group and I to starting to film. A couple hours later and a couple tacos later, there we were! After disscusing our plan, my group and I started the filming process. For the music video most of the clips are going to need to be recorded by the beach. The group came into an agreement that the beach scenes would be filmed another day due to the weather in Florida these past few days. It has been very cold because of the sudden cold fronts. The group understood this because none of us would enter the water and film in the chilly surroundings. Thus, today would only be used to shoot the indoor sequences. The filming started as soon as everyone returned home. I removed the objects and set up the set for the opening scenes. Thus, we just started with the opening moments. It did took me a few tries to get the scene correct, to be completely honest. The people in my group were incredibly encouraging and kept the momentum going! Because my groupmate and I had practiced exactly what would be said and done, the scene was pretty straightforward. The action has ended! I tucked away all the objects and rearranged the stage. Overall, it was a novel experience that I actually quite enjoyed despite never having done it before. It makes me very happy that filming has started. I'm really looking forward to seeing the final result. This will likely be a very successful endeavor, in my opinion. Loves, that's all for now; see you in the next!

Planning Blog: Preparing For Our Music Video!

Song Title: Stitches by Shawn Mendez  Props: Since our location will be at the beach, we'll need the basic beach essentials. This includes gears such as towels, Backpacks, water bottles, glasses, phones, sunscreen and a floaty. These props will be used to give the usual feel of a trip to the beach with friends. All of these will be carried on hand or on our bodies as we navigate towards the location. Location: Fort Lauderdale Beach is the desired location. If nothing goes wrong of course. If not Lauderdale By the Sea is our second beach beach my group and I will film at. (Hopefully nothing happens) Schedule: Sunset, around 6 Pm. On weekends only since we have school and work schooldays. Going For the sunset will be a lot easier with no sun in our faces. The sunset sky is also a way better background since it's pretty. At this time it normally starts to rain as well which is what we prefer at some part in our music video. Backup Plan: If it starts to storm while filming, my ...

Production Blog: Editing!

Watching tutorials! Hi there, lovelies! I began working on the joint editing of all my scenes today. Since I completed my most recent project, I have not edited anything. To renew myself, I thought it would be best to watch a few videos on YouTube. Consequently, I watched films for about thirty minutes. After finishing that, I launched Capcut. My preferred editing software is Capcut. since it's free and I feel totally at ease using it. I spent around five hours editing in all. This is also a result of my tendency to be choosy. So I was finally done once it was as I wanted it. That editing was really striking. It felt so good to be on board. I went so far as to treat myself. I napped after making tacos. But I watched my Final Task again when I woke up. As it happens, the slumber inspired me to edit more. I spent an additional two hours editing, but I'm now satisfied with the outcome. I started my song at the beginning and emailed it to a few individuals to get their feedback. I...
