AICE Media Studies

 Me and my teammates were given the choice to all edit the video. Which our group would then choose the one that corresponded best with our idea. With rough drafts for all of us and except the main editor. Then the different drafts were sent to the main editor for them to see. If they liked one of ours better, then they would keep it and maybe add some things. But if it wasn't good enough, then they would recreate it. From the clips sent and then the team would use that for the video. Since I was in the video and not the recorder. I didn't get the clips until later.  When editing later on I had another idea. Because of this idea, I immediately texted my teammate hoping someone may go back to the location. I needed some photos of certain areas to make this work. Due to having more time. I can only hope that the pictures can be taken before the due date. The websites that I'll be using to edit are apps such as Capcut and iMovie. The way I would edit it, is a way in which the ...

 Filming is finished at this point. There were some issues such as outfits. An as said before with the other people which were supposed to be acting. See for outfits, it was ideal that I wear all white dress as a goddess. The problem was I didn't have an all-white dress and we couldn't find one. Which matched the aesthetic we're going for. There was a bit of miscommunications on both sides. Where I believed the god might be an outer being. My teammate's idea was that it was a residual god which rested on earth. So, there were certain idea's I had to adjust to. Though both of us had the same idea for how the god acted. The god is a jealous person wanting the means to control their favorite human. Someone they watch and wants, if not the life the person lives, then the human themself. As said before a god is omnipresent and because of this communication error. There were a few reruns of certain scenes. A god's presence is based on where the god is. Since the idea ...

 The filming is going well so far. Me and my teammates and working together and coordinating the areas. Although some of my own scenes are difficult to edit. As said before I am playing god in my groups video. By far one of the harder roles. If not one of my teammates playing gods favorite. While acting like a god I have to look from a high view point. Just like how a god is omnipresent, I have to be similar in a sense. Continuing this idea I also have to show how the god is watching their favorite person. Furthermore ,while filming some couldn't make it so we had to adjust the amount of people in the group. My group and I had to look for certain locations in the mall which would be quiet. Another thing me and my group looked for was loud area's. As this should be based off a young girls normal life. But also off how a god watches from a high view. Because the god wants to see how their favorite person enjoys life. As well as how a normal human goes their daily life. When filmi...

  During the process of this music video. I have chosen the props to build the idea of the video at full. While also working with the person directing the video. I have been able to choose what goes into each scene and where each prop shall be placed. The props chosen in the planning blog are as the essentials. After all, the music video is based off a persons normal life. But specifically a gods, favorite persons normal life. In that aspect, the props had to be things or items one uses daily. Counting the locations, we had to find a way to make it see like it was normal. Chairs because that's what most sit on, and if situated properly can look like a room. There was also electronics as most use them daily, playing video games, talking, doing school work or even reading. Furthermore, since this is a normal persons life they should have a backpack. Most people that are young go to school. Normal school and not home school on that prospect, backpack became a prop. Then on the fact th...

 During this music video, I needed various locations. Due to this there had to connect it in some sense. Why? How? What is the reasonable connection of why the actor may go somewhere. The song God Complex is about someone who is obsessed. Not only obsessed but cares greatly about this person. In a way which a god looks down upon their people. Watching from above and keeping an eye as they plea. Not only plea but want for more, need more. Wishing to be blessed and graced with affection. The music video is the configuration of the fact. In which a god watches their people. Sometime even having a favorite human, a human they always watch. This person appeals the god, not only them but some others who may surround this human as well. The god watches, the human as the person carries on with their daily lives. The locations are following this aspect of a person in their weekly life. Going to school, leaving home, walking somewhere or visiting the mall with their friends. God carries on w...

  Shot 1: The character playing "god" or G watches characters A, B and C. It would cutaway from G to A, B, C; the whole thing would be at eye level. While it was drawn at full body, the three shot could be a medium long shot.  Shot 2: This would be continuing from the three shot of A, B and C meeting a new person, character D to all of them going through some doors. This would be a tracking shot and at eye level. If you wanted you could make this one an over the shoulder shot (or D).  Shot 3: G is getting up (from there sit at the end of a tree) to follow the quad. This would to from an eye level angle to a low angle. Other then that, everything stays the same.  Shot 4: A jumpcut to inside the building, a mall where G watches (what looks to be) the camera. This is at a low angle, with a tiny zoom. This can be a medium long or medium shot.  Shot 5: Long shot of where G is in comparison to A, B, C and D. This is right before either a cut or zoom into the next shot...
