Fun times filming

Image
 Heyy blog. Back again to finish discussing the group's first filming day. After the argument about the clothing, everything was smooth and fun. Because my group is all friends outside the project, all of us had so much fun getting everything done. After the scenes at Jenna's house, I offered to drive us to the mall in my car to film the scenes in the mall. So everyone got in my car, listening to music along the way, and I drove to the nearby mall which was around 15 minutes away. Everything was great until parking came around. Why is it so hard to find parking at a mall? I swear I never see the mall I drove us to that's busy. However, after 15 minutes of searching, I finally found a spot in the parking garage right next to an entrance to the mall. This was convenient and awesome as the spot was very close to the first store Jenna had thought of starting to film. Once I finished filming the scenes of the girls walking around the mall and shopping, Natalia wanted to shop for...

  First scene: Kazmin, Sofia, Jenna, and maybe Savannah will all walk into the gym. This shot will be a medium close-up for Kazmin and the girls will be a little further back, making it a medium shot for them. There will be no music in this shot only the natural sound effects like shoe noises, door opening noise, etc.   Second scene: Kazmin opens the Airpod pro case from his pocket and puts the AirPods in his ears. This shot will be taken at a medium shot displaying his side profile. This is when the music starts which demonstrates Kazmin falling into a dream of music from the AirPods. We will use this by Fading into his head with a black screen to show the audience that the next scenes will all be in his head. The sound effect of the case opening and the AirPods connecting will all be included. The music will be the same vibe as the commercial, fun and upbeat. In the background of all of this, you will see the girls working out.  Third scene: In Kazmins music dream world...

Production Blog... still editing :)

 Hey guys! Again, still Sofia, no Kazmin no Jenna, and no Savaannh. Just me talking about the last part of the editing process and how the group is basically finished with the music video. So after the first two clips, one being the split screen were added, I tackled the sound. I went to youtube and screen-recorded the "You Belong With Me" audio by Taylor Swift song. I then cropped the beginning of the video and the end where the music is not playing. After that, I exported the video with the sound on too Jenna's laptop so I could download it to iMovie. I needed to make sure all the clips and lip-syncing lined up so I rewatched it and tweaked it a few times. I did this until everything matched up and was aligned with the storyline. This was my job for the editing. I was in charge of the sound and the split screen effect. However, I'm not done with the sound. I had to go in and mute every clip so that the music was the only thing you could hear. While doing this I foun...
