My group is doing a music video on the song "Don't" by Bryson Tiller. The genre of the song is r&b. In this song it talks about the person having a desire for them but seeing them being mistreated with the person that they are with.

- In the music video, the shot is mainly focused on Bryson (the artist) and he shows many emotions in his face and actions.

-There is also a "city" sense of scenery and it is a "vibe" type scene. A female appears in the video that he seems to be in the video that he adores. 

-For the most part, he is venting out to himself in the music video and expressing how he feels about the situation through his actions and the way he moves around which is what my group and I can input into our music video. 

Four music videos that compares to the "Don't" music video is Exchange by Bryson Tiller, Insecure by Jasmine Sullivan, Sorry not Sorry by Bryson Tiller & WFM by Realest K. 

-All music videos have a wide range out styles and techniques that is put through out the film.

-Camera Angles/Movements that are mainly used in music videos are close ups, low angle, tilt, two shot, medium long shot, etc. In this music video there are a variety of shots that are taken. All 4 music videos have these in common as well.

-Editing in music videos include fade in and fade out , sometimes split screen, zoom, etc. In this music video there is jump cut editing and even fade in and out editing. In all 4 music videos there are jump cut editing scenes. 

-The sound has bridge to it. Towards the end there is an instrumental that plays but for the most part I would consider it being an ambient sound. All 4 music videos have some type sound motif.

All settings eventually consists of them both in the shot and in a place that relates to the music playing in the background.

Experiencing difficulties

During the break we were unable to record. That was our chance to get ahead of the game and return back to school with nothing to do. However, we didn't take that path and we wanted to just relax and sleep in. We wanted to rest well and leave all the stress of school behind, so that we could jump back into it with a clear mindset coming from the break. It took a while for us to get everything together, avoiding discomfort when we meet. It was hard in the beginning getting everything together, learning each other schedules and more. Getting the right actors and finding the right place to record. I'm more of a get it done and out the way person but the situation presented itself as "wait". It's understandable we're on break so we should take a break. Working with others reminded me about patience. There is mutual respect and it's fun seeing all the different point of views and ideas that we have. We joke around from time to time but that made the whole proce...

Drawbacks

  Although it was enjoyable to work with my crew members, I will be working alone on the next project. I have nothing against my colleagues, however working with others requires me to adhere to everyone's work ethic. I prefer to do my tasks as quickly as possible. When I was working with others, it felt like a lot of tasks were pushed aside and left till the last minute. It was worrisome for me because I'm not a last-minute worker. I didn't want to bother the rest of my partners by bringing it up again. So, in order to escape all of that, I'll just work alone. There were benefits and drawbacks to working with others. Because not everyone was available at the same time, scheduling was a good illustration. Getting everything done efficiently and effectively. There was a small lack in communication when pertaining to the work. There was a lot of procrastination and it's hurting us, when doing the project. We need time to get the right film and edit and if we wait any l...

Editing Day One

  Today i begin editing the film i got on the 17th. I started if cutting clips down the were too long. Then i started to put them in the correct order. I’m grateful for the storyboard because i can just look back on it if i don’t remember the correct placements. I found areas where i need to re-film. I edited all the film i had using capcut and added the correct music over it. I'm not finished yet, but I'll get there. It's interesting to see what I was able to catch, and while I was reworking the video, I was able to capture some unnecessary moments, some unintentional moments, and some vital moments.
