 Hey Guys! Today I’m going to tell you some more about my music video. I decided to work alone for this project. My main reason for this is because I have a vision. As soon as I decided to begin this project, I knew exactly what song I wanted to do and the storyline I wanted to follow with my video. Most importantly, I was not open to compromise. Now the song reveal (drumroll, please!!!). Love fool by The Cardigans. For one, this is my favorite song ever since the day I could hear. I remember blasting this song in the car with my mom for most of my childhood. Also, this is THE definition of a rom-com song. The dreamy, yet upbeat pop tempo. The soft feminine voice. And the lyrics which perfectly mirror the mind of a teenage girl in love. The song also follows the story from the perspective of a woman faced with the age old dilema- unrequited love. This is a theme that I want to mirror in the storyline of my music video. I will lip sync to the song while I play the role of a women in love. By the end, she realizes she is not the only one and is filled with heartbreak. Thank you for reading guys! Make sure you’re following me along on my journey to create this masterpiece!!

Research for my Music Video

 Hey Guys!! Today I will be discussing some music videos which are similar to what I would like to do for mine. As I said in my previous blog, I would like to do a pop song with a rom com type of feel, and I tried to keep this in mind when researching music videos.  Lovefool by The Cardigan This music video follows the storyline of a young woman pining after a man. It includes many scenes of her gazing at him while the camera zooms in on a ditch angle, something that definitely adds to the story and that I plan on reacreating.  Wusyaname by Tyler the Creator  This music video also includes a man pining after someone, except a bit more literal. In the video, he follows this girl around, attempting to convince her to give him a chance, while she seems uninterested and tries to walk away.  Lacy by Olivia Rodrigo  This video is a lyric video which writes out the lyrics ion a paper surrounded by cute stickers. Although there is no storyline, the visual effects o...

Title Research - Art of the Title

Image
  After the holidays I am ready to begin researching for our final task again. This time around we needed to identify websites to research titles on. A quick look on google provided an overwhelming amount of links for all sorts of websites. Some websites were good, some websites were bad. Art of The Titles was the first website I came across that looked promising. Instead of just another article or film discussion forum rambling on and on about how much they liked the titles, this website lets you watch the clip of movies with the titles in them. Since this website is dedicated to the title design alone, it houses examples that have artistic and well thought out title placements.  The next website I came across on my search to find one more so we can have all the title research we could possibly need, I found Watch The Titles. After Art of The Titles, I knew we wanted a more interactive website so that we can actually see examples of well done title art and not just hear about...
