Planning For My Music Video

 Song Title: Highway to Hell by AC/DC

Props: The Majority of Props are still undecided, but we will most likely keep the style of AC/DC. Since most of those songs are usually just a concert, we will have to create something original and break the convention. However, we will do our best to stay true to the original band with our clip. Our Props will include (but are not limited to): A car, some books, preferably school textbooks, and breakfast items, such as bowls, spoons, bread, and more. 

Costumes: Since we are defying the convention of most AC/DC songs, we have creative freedom with costumes. However, we do want to stick to the regular AC/DC attire, which is usually all black. To stick to the theme, we will wear all dark clothes. We will, however, allow for perhaps a little color regarding our clothing to stick with the theme of the clip.

Schedule: As of today, Tuesday the 17th, we begin the preparation for the filming. This includes setting up a location, making sure all actors are available, picking what part of the song we want to use, and more. We plan to finish this planning by Friday or Saturday, and begin filming on Monday 23rd. We will film any additional scenes or reshoot some scenes the next day, Tuesday the 24th. After that, we plan to edit it all on Wednesday the 25th, and therefore finish by then. 

Location: A majority of the filming will take place at Richards house and the surrounding area. We might film on the road, and, as always, it all depends on the weather. There might be some scenes filmed in Victoria Park, but that is not yet decided. 

Backup Plan: There are two backup plans ready. The first one is the rain check Backup. This plan is in case it rains during Monday and Tuesday the 24 and 25th. If this does happen, filming will happen on Wednesday and Thursday, and, if it is still raining, Friday and Saturday. The second plan is if one of us gets sick, or is busy. In this case, all filming will be done by one person, and editing will be done by the other, to make sure both of us have set our ideas in.

Genre Research: Lost Girls

Image
  In order to learn more about our genre, our group watched Lost Girls, a murder mystery movie released in 2020. This movie is a nice classic murder mystery, similar to the likes of Clue and Murder on the Orient Express. This movie is what initially drew our interest when researching mystery movies, so we are happy to see it. As we watch this movie, we hope to find elements on the genre, as well as learn a few tricks to make a good mystery. What element of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have. I n the film Lost Girls a daughter goes missing and was last seen near Oak island beach. The one element that is in this movie is not knowing who did it. We are planning on using the element of not knowing who did it in our film. Which is why we watched this film. We also plan on using the element of suspense. Which is seen multiple times in the film Lost Girls. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like. Well for one thing we liked the fa...

Research Blog: Music Video Conventions

 Well to start off the newer music videos made by ACDC are concert like but because of COVID its just them a stage and a camera crew. In these music videos they use a basic color scheme which is black and red. They will use some editing skills to add in effects like a neon red outline around Axl Rose's body. They flash from a red black room of just one person to the whole band on a stage playing, depending on whats going on they will either put in the whole group or if doing a solo part they will flash to a red room outlined in black with the soloist playing their solo. Along with the outline of neon red around a members body they will have a neon red outline of the instrument they play as well. An example of this in the music video Shot In The Dark around 1:31 they have a shot of Cliff Willams playing his guitar and on his guitar there is a moving streak of a neon red light. This has been a new trend where you will see flashes of an outline of a person with some sort of neon color...

Production Blog

 So today we have finishers with the editing of our video. This was a good thing for us because we are able to see our final product. Once we finished editing we looked over our video. We were looking them to see if anything was bad. We looked it over and everything seemed fine. We then were talking about what to do next. This is where we had some discussion. We had to talk about what we wanted to do next. One person wanted to relax and do nothing. One other person wanted to finish up the rest of the blogs. And I had no clue what to do. We then had an argument on what we should do it went nowhere. Then once we stopped arguing we then had to leave Marius place cause it got late. After we got home we texted each other. This text consists of us talking about what’s the next plan. We couldn’t come up with anything so we just decided to rest. This was what we all thought would be best. We would just relax. Then we would remind each other when we have blogs due. Once we would do that we ...
