Intro Music Video

Today we were introduced to our next task, we are starting our music video. I have completed the commercial and are moving right into the music video. The music video is more of a challenge rather than the commercial we shot in school. The music video will be filmed outside of school on our own time. I am working with the same kids as last time Fulvio, Edgardo, and Jontae. The video must one minute and fifteen seconds which is much longer than our commercial. I am hoping to learn more skills and apply them to this video. I am very excited to see how this music video will turn out.

When choosing the song it was a difficult choice. Two of our teammates were not here and were not answering the phone. Jontae preferred songs from the rap genre and I preferred songs from the pop genre. Jontae and I looked through lists of the top songs and had different opinions. We finally found a song we both enjoyed we agreed on "Gods plan" by Drake. We both like Drake and Gods plan is a mixture of pop and rap. It falls under the genre of pop-rap which was perfect. It has a very catchy beat and the lyrics are well written. I texted the other group members and they finally answered and agreed with our choice. Gods Plan is the perfect song for our group.

We started doing more research on the genre and learned a lot. The costumes that are usually seen in the pop-rap genre are comfortable stylish outfits with jewelry. The lighting usually seen in this genre is bright and uplifting. The acting in this genre is cool, not too much like pop but not too much like rap in the middle. The makeup in the genre is nothing insane, it looks natural. The props in this genre varies on what song but cars are usually used as a prop. The setting that is commonly used by the pop-rap genre is usually around a city area or in a house in a neighborhood not like the suburbs or an abandoned place. The genre has a similar sound it's a good beat with not too much rap but not too much pop. The editing in these videos arent too complex and are pretty basic.
