Planning Storyboard For My Music Video

 This is my storyboard for my music video. Which is on "The Bigger Picture" written by Lil Baby. I 

decided to start the first block of as "The Bigger Picture by Lil Baby." I chose to do this in the 

beginning so that I would hopefully not get copyrighted. For the next box I decided what would be 

myself. In the picture it's me with my "black lives matter" shirt on holding up my fist. In the next box it 

would George Floyd. Which is the black man who lost his life in the hands of the police. He is also the 

reason that this song was made as a response of his death. In the next slide you will see what is Derek 

Chauvin the cop that murdered George Floyd. In the picture you see that his knee is against his neck 

cutting of his circulation. In the next box you see "say their names" which basically is meant to grasp 

the amount of the black people who have lost their life due to police brutality. Which leads to the next 

box which is just 3 of the most famous ones "Trayvon Martin, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd." In

 the next five boxes it's me holding signs in the road to represent "protest." The first sign says "I Can't 

Breathe" sign which was the last words that George Floyd said before dying. The second sign "No 

Justice ! No Peace !" which represents that until there is justice for black lives there will be no peace.

 The third box says "end hate" which represents that there has always been some form of hate against

black lives that needs to end. Which also deals with the fourth box that says "stop racism." The last

being the fifth slide says "BLM" which stands for black lives matter. The final slide is a group of black 

people that are holding their fists in the air to represent BLM.

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...
