AICE Media Studies

 

 I had a lot of fun doing this project. I had a great time with the people I was able to do it on and the environment around me. This project has taught me a lot about filming and how to really understand it. I feel like I've gotten better at filming in general and understanding all the techniques that come with it. I could tell throughout the project, I was able to figure out more things I can do and to what extent I can do them. As well as here I posted this on tik tok so I can try to be more successful at filming one day.  

 After filming all of the things I wanted to film, I got home and started looking over the footage. I liked a lot of what I filmed so I didnt have to delete too many things. I started adding transitions from each take and effects to the video. At the end I put the song over it and watched over it to make sure nothing was really wrong with it. 

 This past weekend I went to the track to begin the filming. I got my camera and was filming my friend that races there. He was very cooperative with the video and had no problem being in it. So throughout the weekend, I was able to film him on and off the track. It was a lot of fun being around all my friends and all the people that was there. 

 After finding where I wanted to do the video, I started getting all the props that I thought would fit the video along with the proper attire. I got all the things I wanted and got my camera to begin filming. 

 For day 1 of filming, I was mainly focused on doing my music video in the right place. So I went around looking for the right places to do the filming. I drove around my neighborhood and went around my house to look and see if it was the right place. After being unsuccessful, I decided doing it at the track I practice on would be the most beneficial place to do the music video.  

 I decided to not work with a group because I find it easier to work by myself. I can get more done and I focus more on what I have to do. With a group, usually there's only one person that does everything and everyone else just sits back and waits for that person to finish it all. Doing this individually seemed like the better option for me. I have no one that I really know in this class so I decided to just work by myself. Sometimes maybe its not such a good idea because Im so busy after school with work and on the weekends that I dont really have time to do some of this stuff even in class but its been great. Ive had a really great time in this class and doing the commercial, which was the last project we did. I chose this music video because it was my favorite song when I was younger.
