Group Blog: I’m Not by Myself This Time!!

 



For my commercial project, I decided to work in a group. My partners will be Maryssa Joseph and Janiya McCoy. The reasons why I wanted to work in a group was because of many reasons. One reason that I wanted to work in a group was because I want to see how I can work with others. I want to see how I work with others because I want to work in a field that requires partnerships. I want to build new friendships. I would like to connect with my peers. I would like to learn how to work with others. I can finally share my ideas with someone besides myself.Another reason why I want to work in a group is because I realized that when I work with others, I can help and I feel more dedicated to get things done. The third reason why I want to work in a group is because I really want this final product to be very creative. Plus, when I work with people, I like to make sure I don’t let my teammates down. I really like to work with people because I am a very outgoing person. I also would like to work in a group because I know who I am as a creator/director/filmmaker. Now that I know that, I can work with others. I’m glad I spent my first two projects by myself so I can figure out who I am, producer wise. One of the last reasons why I want to work alone is because I can feel the satisfaction of knowing that me and my partners were able to finish our projects by ourself. I honestly can't wait until we get to working on this final project so I'm really excited!!

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...

Planning My Music Video

Image
  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:...

Convention Research: Dreamgirls

After watching the film 'Dreamgirls', I noticed they used the drama elements sound, thought, plot, and character. Deena, Effie, and Lorrell are a music trio originally naming themselves the dreamettes. They met a manger named Curtis Taylor Jr. who promised to take them to the top of the game. The manger then begins to take too much control from the girls and then began to cause them to break apart one by one. This is the plot of the film. This film uses a lot of music. Some songs that they include are 'Listen' which was sung by Deena. Deena sung this song to express how she was feeling in the midst of the whole situation. She felt as if the manger wasn't listening to her from within. Another song that was sung was 'And I am Telling I'm Not Going' which was sung by Effie. Effie sang this song to express the hurt that she was feeling inside. The music of the film helped express some parts of the film as well. The character of the film would be Curtis. Alth...
