  Hey blog!   Today I will be planning my music video! My decided song is “Pink + White” by Frank Ocean. This song is from the album, “Blond” which was released in 2016. You may listen to   th i s song on many platforms s uch as Spotify, YouTube music, Pandora, etc. This song is in  the R & B/ Soul genre.   I plan to film my blog at three main locations. The beach, the park, and at my friend’s birthday party . My story will be about my friend’s birthday celebrations! I’m super excited to go to all these locations.   My costumes will be specific to the actors and the location in which I am filming. For example, at the beach the cos tumes will be coastal. Coastal may be described as blues, whites, and beiges. I believe these color would really complement the filming location.   My schedule will be specific filming dates. Currently, it seems as if I will be filming on October 21 st and 28 th . More filming days will be planned once ...

 Hey blog!     Today I will be giving you some information bout me and my partner for the music video!     After the difficult decision, I have decided to work with one of my close friends, Mya! Mya is a fellow student at my school and I met her last year.      I have decided to work with Mya because she is a dear friend of mine. Typically, I don't think it is a strong decision to work with someone a close friend. However, I know Mya is a hardworking student, and we work strongly together. She is also very kind and understanding, so I look forward to working with her for the next couple of weeks!     Mya and I have decided to use the song, "Pink + White" by Frank Ocean. This is an R and B song, which is one of my favorite genres of music! This song we decided because it is a feel good song. It has a catchy tune, and I can already visualize some sort of happy story to it!     I am really looking forward to continuing t...

  Hey Blog!            My name is Mariana, and welcome to my second intro blog. We are nearing the end of quarter, and I'm going to create a new project. I'm very excited because today is a special day. I'm going to get my permit! I will tell you about my upcoming project on the way there.     My next project is a music video! At first I did not know if I wanted to work alone yet. I then decided it would be better to work with a friend from another class. Our song is still undecided.     It was a really long walk into the DMV, and it was very hot out. Once we got there, we had to wait in a very long line. After, we reached the front of the line they said we needed proof of residency. Me and my mother had to walk all the way back to the car to get her driver registration! Then we came back and had to wait in another long line!       Finally we reached the booth. They then said my birth certificate was too fol...

H i blog !   I have decided I no longer want to call you guys “bloggers ”, so I will now refer to you as “blog ”. I started this blog almost 3 weeks ago, and I got to present to you a project . It was tricky; however, I finally finished my commercial. Although I am upset that the project has come to an end, many more will come. Because I did complete my commercial, I have deci ded to reflect on what I have learned.   Learning how to use an editing software was definitely the trickiest part. As you already know, I used the app Capcut on my cell phone. On Capcut there are thousands of different templates to choose from. I tried o ne of them out but decided it would be best to create it from scratch. When you press “New project” you open an empty slate for you to create on! I learned about the features at the bottom, such as “edit” and “text ”. There is a letter “T” that I learned allows you to add text. This was how I was capable of adding lyrics to my commercial. ...

Hey Bloggers! I finally finished my commercial, I hope you enjoy!  

  Hey bloggers!   Today is the day I am finishing up my commercial. I’m starting to think of different ideas. I tried us ing my planned photos and videos, but I wasn’t really feeling it. I decided to keep the same song but follow my heart!   I was first introduced to the song , “Lovely Day” by my father. We were driving around during a flood. Last year, t here was a really nasty flash flood. Me and my dad got stuck in traffic o n the way home from dance. Our first stop was burger king to get some French fries! Usually, our drive home from that burger king is 10 minutes. It took us 45 minutes to get home.   Once we got home, we were ready to watch football . Sadly, our internet was out. Someone had driven into a phone line! We had to come up with a nother plan.   We decided we were going to drive around a see the damage, carefully of course. We were going to get Baskin Robbins. I got a cookie dough cone, and that’s when he started to play the son...

  Hey bloggers   Today I'm going to learn how to use C apcut . I have never used this software before, but today's the day. I want t o be able to edit my commercial, so having a solid understanding of C apcut will be very beneficial . C apcut has tons of different templates, so I'm going to practice with those.   When you use the templates, you just select photos, video s, and live photos to throw in. I didn’t realize how cool live photos are. I just realized I have a million short moments that I can include in my upcoming projects. Realizing I can use live photos really motivates me to get as much of this project done .   Once I started, I got a little stuck. I didn’t know how to move the clips o r how to cut things, but then I watched a YouTube tutorial. The tutorial taught me a lot of things I was confused about , so now I have a much higher understanding of C apcut .   It is quite difficult for me to focus on this project, as it is Sun...
