Group Blog: Music Video

For this group I decided to work with the people I have sat with all year and worked with before on other project. The people in my group are Stanley, Ayannah, and Nathaly. The biggest reason I picked these three people to work with is because I know I work well with all of them. Each of them do have their own traits that make them better to work with. Ayannah is a good artist and will be useful for the storyboard. Nathaly is creative and can help with coming up with the idea for the music video. Finally, Stanley is a good writer and can help with writing all of the shared blogs. Once we established our group we had to decide a song for our music video to be about. Nathaly showed everyone a pop song. While the song was okay we decided it didn't match well for this project. Then, Stanley gave a rap song. It was also a struggle to find a topic for the video to be about with that song. Finally, I showed the group a rock song. It is called "Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand. When I showed the song to everyone ideas came to mind about what to start writing about. The song has a good opening portion of it that would be easy to write a story around. On top of this the length of the introduction for the song lasts a minute and twenty seconds. Seeing as the project requires the length to be between a minute and ten seconds to a minute and fifteen seconds, the length worked perfectly. With the song in mind our group brainstormed ideas for what to write about and came up with one that worked well with the song. Now that we had a general idea for what the video would be we decided to song was perfect.

CCR: Podcast

Podcast Script:  Hello, welcome back to my podcast. Today I am discussing the film Cold Case. Cold Case is a new thriller movie about a group of teenagers exploring an abandoned ice rink and not making it out alive. Our first question today is; how does Cold Case engage with audiences.   The foundation of "Cold Case's" engagement lies in its ability to forge a deep, emotional connection with its audience. This connection is c reated through the film's focus on five friends exploring an abandoned ice rink, a premise that is both relatable and builds a potential for tension and horror. By choosing characters that viewers can see reflections of themselves in, the film allows you to put yourself into the situation of the characters . The horror and suspense are n’t just limit ed to the screen; they resonate on a personal level, tapping into the universal fear of the unknown.   Moreover, the found footage style of "Cold Case" serves as a powerful tool for imme...

Production Blog: Beginning to Film

 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...
