Let me introduce you to my group



Welcome back to my blog reader! My name is Alessandra and my group members are Hailey, Isabel, and Kyra. For this project, we welcomed a new team member which is Kyra. Regarding our last project, the commercial, my team members and I had lots of fun throughout the process of making it and I especially enjoyed the filming part of it. It was extremely fun coming together with my group to film our scenes and discovering how to execute all the angles that we needed for it. The experience of the Commercial project helped my team members and I become familiar with terms revolving around media such as what a High/low angle is (While we were filming our video, we searched up on the app YouTube examples of how the angles we needed were done. We saw various examples of how for instance a tilt was made in many movies/Tv Shows and music videos). We were able to improve our filming and editing skills and learn about filming techniques throughout the course of our project. We were exposed to something we had never faced before, and it was truly a refreshing experience. Moreover, I choose to work with this group again because of how well we worked together on our previous project. As I have previously mentioned, Hailey has wonderful communication and collaborative skills while also being very good at finding a solution when we encounter an issue and is also a very strategic thinker. Isabel and Kyra and both very logical individuals and quick thinkers which are great skills to have. As for me, I feel that I am a very creative and positive Individual while also having patience. From my perspective, I believe that these are incredible skills and personality traits to have when working in a group. Our previous project has proven to me that we have great chemistry as a group and am excited to work with these individuals again. Now, regarding our upcoming project, the music video, we choose as our song “Material Girl” by Madonna. We are excited to execute, interpret, and challenge the conventions and social issues that the song holds through our video (This is the reason as to why we choose this song). My team members and I are extremely excited for this project due to that it truly looks like something we are going to enjoy doing and I am especially excited for the filming part of the project that I believe that it's going to be a fun experience. Well this is my cue to leave, till next time reader!

Back to the Editing Room

          Welcome back to my blog reader ! After ta king in all the advice and comments that my close friends Jasmine and Jada provided me with regarding my sho rt fil m “Lucky” after they watched it. I have gathered all their suggestions and concerns and have taken them back with me to the editing room. Further, for the scene where Gabriela, the protagonist of the film, interacts with the stranger to ask where the event is located . There was poor quality audio for that scene as I filmed it at the mall therefore there was background noise as well as the sound of the wi nd. This scene is a crucial part of the film, thus I had to fi nd a solution to the problem. I asked the actress who plays Gabriela and the actress who plays the stranger to voiceover that scene in attempt to make it easier for the viewer to unde rstand the dialogue as it plays a vital role tha t in the story and leads to the suspenseful areas of the film.

Our Plan

Image
Welcome back to my blog reader! Here is our plan for the music video project! Props:   . Since we chose the song Material Girl, we plan to display a young girl living a lavish lifestyle. To portray this, we plan to use fake money, sunglasses, and a feather boa as our props.  Costumes:    . In our video, we will have one main subject, our material girl, with others playing supporting roles. For the material girl, they would be dressed up in long gloves, fake pearls, and a nice long dress, preferably pink. To fit the stereotype of a gold-digger, they would also wear a blonde wig, a feather boa, and expensive looking sunglasses. The actress would have on light makeup, with the most bold part being some red lipstick.       For the lower class boys, we would have them dress in casual clothing, such as jeans and a hoodie. Any lower class girls would dress in similar casual clothing but may wear skirts, short dresses, or shorts as well. On the other hand...

  Creative Critical Reflection 1 .        1.   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? . My group’s product was a L'Oréal Paris Lipstick, and its  company usually target s their products at older audiences, mostly adult women . The main theme of L'Oréal products is that they make you feel young once more, due to that their advertisements for the most part consists of women being portrayed as being energetic and living life to the fullest because of the makeup they use. Regarding the lipstick itself, is that it goes against the ideal of the cultural beauty standard that states that the idea of beauty only applies to youth. The colors that they use ar e to contrasts the colors (such as more skin tone, matted colors) that adult women would on a daily basis wear . The company L'Oréal, introduces these women as adults (older) yet elegant and pleasing...
