To begin the full group filming process everyone met up at Dania Pointe as planned. I coordinated schedules and times to accommodate everyone. Over the weekend on Saturday we all showed up at 11:00am. For today I decided to work on the second scene. The second scene consists of a split screen of the varying perspective of one side eating alone and one side eating with friends. So to set up I first had to find 2 separate areas of Dania Pointe to film. I walked around for about an hour scouting out filming locations. The first place I saw was a long strip of fake grass with a lot of tables around. I thought it would be a good place because it had a nice environment and background. The next area I found was shadowed and isolated. I thought that it would be a good idea to have our solo actor film there. I then walked around and found a couple of other spots but ultimately decided on the first two I found. After this I brought in the actors for the group scene. They all went and got ic...
Before editing the project together I decided I wanted to get one more piece of media to show who I am. This final piece of media would be music. My music taste is very diverse. I like rap, pop, electronic, but mostly indie music. Since my music taste is as diverse as it is I wanted to try and stick to one genre so that the general mood of the commercial is the same throughout. So, I first went to Spotify to search for specific albums I like. The first album I looked at was “Is This It” by The Strokes. Is This It is one of my favorite albums so this was a very obvious place to get a song from. After listening to the full album I narrowed the choices down to “The Modern Age” “Soma” and “Hard To Explain”. I’ll decide which one to use when I start editing the project so I can see which song fits the best with the video. Next, I went through one of my favorite artist’s discography for my next few songs. This artist is called Good Kid and I’ve been a big fan of them for several years now so...
For the next part of the music video my group and I had to create a storyboard. For the first step of this process, we had to pick someone to draw the images. Going one by one through the group helped us decide. Starting with Stanley, he was completely against drawing as he wasn't good at it. Moving past him I decided that I was in a similar position as him and would only do it if no one else is willing to. Then, I asked Ayannah. She said she was willing to do it but was a bit reluctant. Finally, I asked Nathaly who agreed to be the artist for the storyboard. Once I had my artist picked out, I went back and forth with her to get the drawings accurate to the actual story. For the first frame I had her draw a picture of our actor waking up. In the next frame I told her to have an image of the actor receiving a text. Then for the next couple of frames I helped her visualize the three activities that the friends would do in the video. For the first one it was an image of the gro...
