Welcome back! The thought process of developing this music video has definitely evolved the way I think about music videos in general. Due to the filming of this music video, it has shown me what producers are thinking about when it comes to portraying the message and idea of the song. Producers have to think of how they are going to portray this message through just visuals and the lyrics of the music video. I had to think about how the lyrics of the Taylor Swift song 'You Belong with me' could also portray the idea for the music video that my group and I came up with being about a friendship instead of talking about a relationship. Both these things are very similar when it comes to how people can feel about liking someone and that person being with or wanting someone else. Same thing with a friendship, it can hurt when you love your best friends but they are constantly being taken away from anther best friend of theirs. The way that the song 'You Belong with me' portrays this message of someone else occupying someone you love's time. This allowed for the group and I to brainstorm a lot of ideas when it came to showing this message. Overall, learned a lot about conveying the message across to the audience when it comes to making a music video.

 Hello again! There has been a few changes in the filming process. As you know, the filming date for this project is Thursday, March 16, 2023. Some things have changed with the location of filming this project. This project was supposed to be filmed at my dads new and very big modern house that we are moving into in a couple of months. Things changed because my dad is renting out that house to different people before we move in. A couple booked to stay in the house starting today, Tuesday, March 14 all the way through Tuesday, March 28. This had me thinking because the people renting out the house will be there on the date that my group was going to film. The projects deadline is coming up quickly and I knew that my group could not wait two whole weeks before we film so I decided to improvise. I came up with the idea that instead the final task will be filmed at the current house my dad and I are in. This house is smaller but still has most of the necessities that will be needed. T...

Production Blog- Finally Finished Filming

 Hello and welcome back blog!! I have not updated you in a little while. The group and I had been planning on what day to film and finally it was decided that today would be the day. I have already discussed that everyone has super busy lives and it is a little hard to come up for filming days. Today was the last and final day of filming. It is Monday, March 11 and right when me and my group got out of school at 2:40, we went straight to my house in order to regroup and discuss further scenes that needed to be filmed. After the group got to my house, filming started shortly after. First, I discovered that the amber alert scene needed to be filmed and that was done by changing contact names to the names of the girls in the short films and a voiceover affect of the amber alert saying the name of the girl who is missing. Then, a couple scenes of Ellie trying to call Olivia in the short film and crying, needed to be filmed. After about an hour of completing these scenes, it was then ti...
