 The group is doing the song Crazy in Love by Beyoncé. We watched the music video for this song, other Beyonce songs, and songs that capture the same feeling. After conducting this research we knew what ideas to input in our music video. When discussing costumes we knew we wanted to be in formal, lavish dresses, for part of the song. However for another part Janiya would be dancing and wear a "hip" outfit, like the outfit changes in the video There are not many specific props used in the music video, just very fitting outfit changes, so that is what will be done The appearance is a very cool, fashion killer type of look, and make up if on point, very fierce and sensual  There are many zoom shots throughout the video, randomly in and out tracking shots are used in the beginning when introducing Beyonce the video mostly consists of medium or medium long shots, there are also a lot of medium close ups and close ups to frame the star the video is FULL of cross cutting, scenes are

Group projects seem to be enjoyable but sometimes they can really stress me out. More often then not I do majority of the work in a group project and stress about it, but I knew for this work I wanted to be in a group. My first day in this class I worried about the projects and who I would be working with. I have transferred into this school due to the better education compared to my formal school, but I don't know many people and was worried I wouldn't make any friends. The first two weeks were difficult but I am glad to say that it has not been as hard as I imagined. This is a really big class and my only friends here are in A level, which worried me a lot for the projects. There are a few girls I sit by that I am friendly with, but I know I wouldn't work well with them. They are lovely but much too chatty and off task for me to be comfortable depending on them for work. I ended up getting seated next to Faith and Janiya and could not be more relieved. I instantly felt co

  I was interested in taking this class after my brother and friends took it last year and the year before. My brother Zeke had media studies freshman year and I was able to watch him film and heard him talking about it all the time. Paola has AS last year and came to my house to film her music video, I thought it was really cool and they said it was an easy fun class. I really love films and thought the class itself would definitely be interesting. I love reading, writing and was really interested in photography and videography (even had a camcorder I would carry around but lost it), so I know working behind the scene would be lots of fun. When reading a book I immerse myself into the world of the characters, seemingly unable to want jump back into reality. I also love music, I am always listening to music and finding new artists and songs to enjoy, some including Deftones, Gorillaz, Radiohead, SZA, Frank Ocean, Tyler the Creator, Portishead and Foo Fighters... to name a few.
