Music Video Project

For my Media Studies class, I had to do a music video project with a group of my friends. This music video project consisted of us having to choose a holiday song for the first part of our project then we had to do a script write, storyboard, film, edit, publish the final project. 

                           Song choice/ concept summary

The project first started with us having to write the people in our groups names on a sheet of paper, then we pick the song of our choice which was Winter Wonderland by  Bryson Tiller and then we jotted down some ideas of what the concept of the video was going to be. For example, we wrote down that we were going to have people dancing in our video for the instrumental parts, different shots of us singing different lyrics of the song,  

                                     Script Writing

In addition, to us choosing the song/concept summer we had to script write. When doing our script write we used studio binder to look at the way in which it was done. We looked over the things on the example, we made are own using the feature that studio binder had that allowed us to script write. Provided that, we  did our own script write giving details about the 8 scenes we had. The details of consisted of where we were going to film(setting) and the lines we were going to say in each scene.

                                         Storyboard

For the storyboard we had to do it on a word document using the storyboard templates on studio binder. In the storyboard we had to number the scenes, the shots in the scene, and we had to correlate the shot size to the duration of the song for everyone's part. After that I added a description for each shot in the scene for example, the description would consist of me saying whos part it is for that scene along with the what kind of camera shot in is(medium shot, medium close up, and long shot.) 

                                       Filming/editing

The filming process was easy but we had to keep filming some shots either because we didn't like it and we keep messing up. The filming process took us about 3-4 days and within those days we were able to get the shots down. Once we finished filming the day after we started editing. We started editing in class but we had to finish the rest once we got home. The editing software we used was clipchamp, we inserted the videos and got to editing. We took some parts out, added transition's like fade in/fade out.
