Production: Film Review Type thing

 Since the last blog, I managed to put everything together and I don’t know if I’m pleased with the final result. I guess it’s okay, but I needed feedback. I decided to make my mom watch the movie. To be honest, I found it really embarrassing and I didn’t realize how much I disliked my final product. I cringed the entire time I had her watch it. She looked kind of confused with the editing and said it didn’t look really suspenseful. She stated that the music was good and not too much. However, she also said I could use some sound effects. I did feel like those were needed, but I never included them despite searching for something. I’m glad she told me that, because now my opinion is backed up. She also said she thinks the movie is about a criminal breaking into an house. Overall, my mom liked the video and said the cinematography was good. This made me happy, because that was the only element of the final task I enjoyed. Playing with angles was really fun. Anyway, I embarked on another search for sound effects to perfect my final task as much as I can. I had a vision to put a scary sound during a specific scene. Maybe if I do that, and tweak some of the caption editing, it’ll be perfect. Or at the very least, a bit better. So I’m going to do all of that, and in the next blog I’ll update with changes. I’ll be back soon to talk about the final product!

Production Blog- The Beginning

 I have set out to begin working on my music video. I have a few volunteers for acting, which is really good. I plan to be in charge of filming and editing because that's what I do best. I used to have a YouTube channel from the ages of 9-12, so I have experience in that field. For a while, editing was my passion, and I'm confident I can make a decent final product. After I made my storyboard, I visualized the main idea for the project. As the first step, I started off by downloading the necessary editing apps. Then, I sought out to research cameras and maybe see if I could buy one that is better quality than my phone. This did not work out, I am broke and cannot afford the camera I so dearly want. Okay well, I'm not broke, just cheap. On top of that, I only have enough money for a cheap camera, and I refuse to settle for lower quality. If I can convince my parents to get me a $400 camera, that'd be awesome! I would love to get my hands on a Canon EOS Rebel T100. Or may

 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yDkAgmp6c6Gg_qhYlzqe0iJC_eEeU4aBfX-YuZbKni8/edit  AICE Media Studies CCR   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?  My product turned out rather different than what I originally intended to create. I had a lack of actors present, so I needed to improvise and work with what I had. My original idea was to represent the struggle between powerful and lower social classes. Due to the lack of actors and inability to find a proper location that would work for all members, I had to change the entire plot and setting of my music video. While inconvenient in the moment, this occurrence actually allowed for a whole new meaning to be created. The final product can be interpreted as a representation of the struggle that those in society seen as helpless have versus those who could easily overpower them. It can be applied to real life, especially in more serious situations and global issues, for exampl
