Filming Blog

 

The process of filming 
was long and rough. 
Owing to the recent weather, all of 
us were cold and freezing during the filming. 
We all managed, though to 
pull through and get it done. 
With all the pieces needing to be accurate, this 
project was by far the most difficult one to film. 
There were many trials and failed 
scenes we had to go through. 
The end result gave us just 
what we were hoping and dreaming for. 
And both of us being tired at 
the end of it and worn out. 
We had a lot of bloopers and errors during shooting that 
we had to overlook, and we were able to pull through eventually. 
We encountered a lot of issues 
with the freezing cold and the pool. 
We were so pleased to be warm by the time we got inside 
the house and were able to finish filming the way we wanted to. 
Since they were incredibly necessary and where much of the shooting 
took place, we did not want to rush the scenes out.
The cameraman proceeded to screw 
up the shots that we wanted. 
So in short, we had to start a lot again because of the 
cameraman to get the shots correct and the angles we needed to advance. 
We kept having to replay the clips during the 
filming to make sure they were synced with the song. 
We had to make sure it was in 
the right place where we wanted it, regularly. 
With the song forgetting the lyrics, we 
all had a hard time having to lipsync. 
And the dances that we had to 
perform in order to make the movie look nice. 
We then went indoors, where most of the dancing 
took place, after making sure all was right outside. 
We were able to start shooting the rest after 
making everyone find out what dances they wanted to do. 
Some of us forgot the dances and 
had to re-start while recording the others. 
We felt so proud when 
we actually got those dances right.

  In Hip-hop genre music videos there are generally many varied camera angles. For example low angle shots that show the artists' power among the audience and the viewers. while the camera is showing them at a low angle the artist has the whole frame to themselves showing that it belongs to them giving them the power of the scene. There are also very many close-up shots in hip-hop music videos. Close-up shots could show the importance of the artist to the views by them being the only thing in the frame. in many other hip hop music videos, they implement a crowd dancing as if the crowd is dancing to the new song and enjoying it. Which could get the viewers hype and even like the song even more. This gives the song more credibility to whatever the song may be about. Another thing could be attire and what the artist wear. What the artist wear can show how their personality is. Or can complement the song by wearing what the song might be about. Artists could wear anything they want. T...

   The title of the song my group will be using is "Gods Plan" I think it will fit well with the video. Some props we may use in the video can include hats, fake gold chains, footballs, and sporting equipment. I am trying to get the props to go along with a teenager vibe. I want the aesthetic to look like a few teens playing sports and having fun in the pool while drinking soda. We will be wearing bathing suits with gold chains on and some of us may have hats. This will give the video a beachy/pool vibe. That is exactly what I'm looking for a good vibe, these costumes will definitely produce that. We will be filming the video on November 22nd. After that, we will then edit the video on November 23rd after we get all the files imported on my computer. The location will be at my friend Darrow's house. We will use his pool to our advantage and include him in the video. His pool is the perfect spot for a video of this theme. It will definitely match the vibe I'm looki...
