Hey blog!     Now that I finished my project, I can reflect on the process of creating a music video. I hope you all enjoy! 1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? My music video both uses and challenges conventions. The song for my video was Pink + White by Frank Ocean, which is an R & B song. While I researched, I noticed many similar conventions in this genre.

Although I had to edit my work, I am very grateful she pointed this out to me! I got to teach Mya how to do different transitions which I believe enhanced our video. Once we each finished our parts, I tied them together. At first, I thought I would just put the four clips together and be done, but it was not that simple. Because we split it u
