Wow! Time sure went by fast. This is my last blog post of the year! To began, the last and final project that my GT class is doing is Music Videos. My partners for this project is Kalista Brigante, Blossom Novoa, and Mike Perry. The song me and my team chose to do is called Price Tag by Jessie J. To be able to film we created our own plan that consisted of the lyrics and the storyline. The storyline is basically the b-roll parts of the song, it helps the audience understand the story behind the song. The storyline relates to our lyrics because it shows that everybody is unhappy and is being obsessed with shopping and spending money but they don't realize that "money can’t buy us happiness". The lyrics are about how it's not all about the money and we have a good time spending time with each other instead of spending all of your time shopping and spending money on things that you couldn't possibly need. Then in the middle it shows that we all figure out that we can just have a good time with our friends and not have to spend tons of money. Also, in the ending of the storyline it shows us forgetting about shopping and we just leave are shopping bags behind and walk out of the store.
To engage our audience into our music video it is best to do fast-edit montage sequences. My favorite fast-edit montage sequences are the wide, medium, and close shots. Those sequences are my favorite because they really get the attention from our audience. It also puts everything together and makes it look neat yet interesting. In our Music Video we used a lot of the wide, medium, and close shot sequences. Whenever we make videos we usually use these fast-edit montages, so I have a lot of practice and experience with working with it.
One of our goals for this Music Video project is to showcase our best work and make it show what we learned all this year. This music video shows are best work because the quality of it, we made sure the editing was to the beat and the lip-syncs matched with the song. We added effects to certain scenes to add emotion. We also used different filming techniques and added cut shots. Overall, me and my team really put are best work to this. We wanted to end off the year great and produce a quality produced music video. To conclude my final blog post of the year, this was my favorite project and I had a blast creating this music video. Me and my team worked very hard and worked together to complete this project. I can't wait for another fun-filled 8th grade year!
Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first
And the truth comes second
|
Just stop for a minute and smile
|
Why is everybody so serious
Acting so dang mysterious
|
Got shades on your eyes
And your heels so high that you can't even have a good time
|
Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
|
Can you feel that, yeah
We're paying with love tonight
|
It's not about the money money money
We don't need your money money money
|
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the uh cha-ching cha-ching
|
Ain't about the yeah b-bling b-bling
|
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
We need to take it back in time
|
When music made us all unite
|
And it wasn't low blows and video no’s
|
Am I the only the one getting tired
|
Why is everybody so obsessed
Money can't buy us happiness
|
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feeling alright
|
Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
|
Can you feel, yeah
We're paying with love tonight
|
It's not about the money money money
We don't need your money money money
|
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the uh cha-ching cha-ching
|
Ain't about the yeah b-bling b-bling
|
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
|
Well keep the price tag
And take the cash back
Just give me six strings
And a half stack
And you can, can keep the cars
Leave me the garage
And all I, yes all I need are keys and guitars
