Filming Blog For Music Video

Sadly, this will not be a filming blog. This will be a blog about why I was unable to film over 

the break. To begin with, I would like to state that I had no idea my break was going to go how

it went. I thought that my break was going to be a normal break at home. The first day of

break was a casual evening. My mom and dad came home off of work around 3. My sister

and I finished up school at around the same time. Then we went on to playing our games.

That was until the next morning my Mom and Dad told us to bag our bags. My sister and I

kept saying why ? What's happening ? Where are we going ? But, they wouldn't say. All

they said was make sure it was packed by the morning. So, that morning my sister and I

woke up completely unaware of what was going to happen next. It was a long road trip so

we went to sleep at around the same time and when we woke up we see that we are at our

grandmas house in Orlando. Which we rarely get to see nowadays due to covid-19.  One of

the days up there went to Disney Springs. So, we spent the entire thanksgiving break at my

grandmas house in Orlando. We got back home late last night which is why I was unable to

 start filming. I already have the stuff prepped to begin I'm just waiting on my shirt which

 should be coming in tomorrow.

Music Video Blog

Today's the day! The video above is the final product of my music video. For this blog, I will talk about the experience before and after doing this video. Heading into this project I was a little nervous. I was nervous because I didn't think I had the capability to recreate a music video. LIKE EVER! But I  knew it had to get done so I went headfirst into it. The first step was to pick a song, this was where I  had to use my creativity. Out of all the songs I ended up choosing "The Bigger Picture" by Lil Baby.  The reason I decided to do this song was that Lil baby is one of my favorite rappers. Also, the meaning  behind the song was the "black lives matters" movement. After the tragic death of George Floyd which  was a man who lost his life at the hands of the police. Or the people that are supposed to "protect the  people" and make the streets safer. George Floyd is just one of the black people who have lost their  lives due to this type of brut...

Filming Process

 For my Vans commercial the filming process went quite easily. I am going to explain step by step how the filming process went. To begin with, I had to make sure the setting was right. This meaning the area and the weather. It was raining for most of the weekend so luckily on Sunday I was able to start my film. This was also important because I wanted the video to start of with a sunset. Although I wasn't able to capture the sunset I was still able to capture the beautiful setting of the sun that day. After that I was able to gather my clothing. I wore two sets of the clothing in the film. The first being a black & white hat, a plain white T-shirt, khaki shorts, and my black & white checkerboard Vans. The second being a red & white visor, the same plain white T-shirts, the same khaki shorts, and my red & white checkerboard Vans. The purpose of this is so that the audience can see right of the bat what is being advertised to them. In many commercials people are ...

Introduction To The Music Video Project

Image
Good afternoon, my name is Nicholas Smith. Today, I was given the opportunity to create a music video project. Given to me by lovely teachers Mr. Katz and Ms. Marchionne. Through the AICE MEDIA department. This will be my second project given to me and I can't wait. For this project I've  decided to work on it by myself. Due to the current circumstances I have chosen to do this project  alone. I don't want to interfere with others resulting with risk of the life of myself and others. I believe  that doing this project alone is the safest option. For my project, I have decided to do "The Bigger  Picture." Which was made by Lil Baby an artist from Atlanta, Georgia. "The Bigger Picture" was the  in fact voted the most iconic song of the year. I decided to do this song as it speaks on the behalf of the  "black lives matter" movement. This song was created as a  reaction of the "George Floyd" killing.  George Floyd was 46 years old when he...
