Planning My Music Video

  Props: Since I have decided to do a RnB music video, to the song Miss Independent by Ne-Yo, my props will probably include a car, a book/binder, tables and chairs, a desk, business products, and maybe more. These are all of the props for now. Costumes: In my commercial, I will have 2 characters. The first main character will be a woman and the song will be surrounded around her. The second main character will be the love interest that is trying to get the woman’s attention. They both will be wearing some sort of business attire or just dressy clothes in general. I want the woman to maybe wear a pencil skirt or maybe just dressy pants with a business top or dressy top with sandals, maybe heels, it just depends. I want the man to wear a suit or a dressy shirt with dark jeans and dress shoes. Here are some examples of how I would like the costumes to look.  (These screenshots are from the ‘Miss Independent’ music video and show the outfits that the actors are wearing) Schedule: On 11/13

Researching Music Videos

For my project, I will be doing a music video surrounding around the RnB genre. My music video is based all around love. All aspects of young love, heartbreak, new relationships. I studied the songs "Miss Independent", "Say My Name", "Are You That Somebody?", "When I See You", and many more popular and iconic RnB songs. In regular music videos, they include: the camera at a medium close-up to show the movements of the artist the camera at a close-up of the actors' faces to show how they’re faces are reacting to interactions people dancing, talking, walking,  being in lovey, arguing, fighting, etc. a short introduction before the song actually starts (some not all) a pan shot that focuses on the background or a certain part of the music video’s story In typical RnB music videos, the audience sees/hears: the actors interacting at some point in the video, if they are trying to get to talk to one another and haven’t already meet one another danci

By Myself Again?

For my music video , I decided to work by myself. The reasons why I wanted to work by myself was because of many reasons. One reason that I wanted to work by myself was because I worked by myself for my commercial and I was able to get everything done in a good amount of time. Also, I can still see how it feels to do a longer project by myself just incase I want to do my final project by myself, so I can already have experience working on everything by myself. Another reason why I want to work by myself is because I realized that when I work alone, I thrive and do really good. The third reason why I want to work alone is because I really want my creativity to come out in this project so I can actually see every single one of my ideas come to life. Plus, I was told that when I work with people, I can get a little bit distracted. I was also told that I work really well alone, so I wanted to keep those conversations in mind while working on this project. I like to work with people, but us

My name is Autumn Alfred and I am a junior in high school. A lot of people usually don't know this about me, but I am a Christian and I am very serious when it comes to my Christianity. I love to spread the Gospel and just tell people all about God and His Son Jesus because They both are just so amazing. I work part-time at Pollo Tropical. I also am apart of band. I am in auxiliary, I specifically am a dancer. In my free time I like to read and write. I like to specifically read my Bible and write notes on what I read or about whatever pops up on my spirit. When I am not writing notes, I like to write random stories. I really love writing and just expressing myself in general. Writing is kind of like an outlet for me. I also really like to do YouTube: record videos, edit, and post them. I am trying to grow my audience on YouTube at the moment. I am currently taking 3 AICE classes: English Language A Level, Media Studies, and US History. There are many reasons behind why I am taking
