 Hello welcome back! I'm going to talk about my music video's comparison to Taylor Swifts original "You Belong With Me" music video. The conventions of the original music video follow Taylor's exact lyrics more. For example, Taylor says "She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers" and in the original music video, the evil Taylor is in a cheer costume while the good Taylor is in a ugly outfit, sitting on the bleachers. This continues throughout the music video. Another convention is that the original music video has to do with a relationship but my group's music video had to do with a friendship. In the original music video, Taylor Swift plays both the good Taylor (a blonde who is singing the song) and the evil Taylor (a brunette that has the guy that the good Taylor wants). In my group's music video, the good Taylor is the good bestfriend played by Omnia and the evil Taylor is the mean bestfriend who is played by Marlo. In the original music video, there is a guy that the evil Taylor has and the good Taylor wants and that is why the good Taylor is singing about him. In my group's music video, there is a best friend that the evil Taylor is stealing for bad reasons and the good Taylor misses and loves. The original music video conventions are not the same as the ones I did in my music video but they relate to the lyrics and fit the song very well. Overall, had a lot of fun filming this music video and I'm excited for you to see it in the next blog. Bye!

 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...

I am so beyond sad that everything is now complete and filming is over. It truly was such a blast to be able to film so much with my friends and make a pretty good short film. I will miss the process of filming this short film. There were many ups and downs but overall the experience in A level media has been a fun process and I am proud of how hardworking me and my group were making this short film.
