Production blog: scene cuts

 



So we ended up cutting a big portion of scenes. The scenes that were cut did not establish the plot. They could have been useful if we were faster. This will officially be my last blog for this long project. It was very fun and time consuming at the same time. I mostly enjoyed editing and watching our work back. It was nice to see the months of work all together. I helped compose this and it made me think more about the media I myself consume. I now think of the name of the shots and film. I even point out diegetic sounds in the film. It means I can tell sound effects apart from the original tape. Even the sneaky ones. This is because as I edited I listened a lot of popular sound effects used in media. Thats all for today blog!

Critical Reflection Questions

  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-i4rUw1qkl4a4qeyLrzIVZE5YkOvt9eNqXXFE0jg0p8/edit How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? My product challenges the conventions that the media has put out. The music video is all about loving yourself truly and freely. The video does not have any character that goes under the knife to look better, but this is uncommon. Usually when a woman in film is insecure, she undergoes a surgery, or she starts to work out to change how she looks so she is finally happy with herself. The character in my music video learns self-love and grows to be happy with her natural self. I wanted this change to be obvious to send out the message that you do not need to change yourself to be happy. You can go down so many other paths to become happy. By the end of the video the viewer can understand that beauty is not defined by what other people think and that they can learn to grow to love their natural selves.
