Pitch Blog Music Video

Recently, my group and I have decided between two songs to make a music video to. Last time we saw each other, we decided on the song that we were going to be using for this project.

Pitch 1: The Night Begins To Shine- B.E.R 
This is a 80s' style rock song with a catchy tune which is sure to get anyone listening in to the beat and lyrics. The lyrics tell a story of love and possibly even heartbreak, which allows listeners to relate to it and enjoy the song further. The song is good for the music video as it tells a story to its listeners, which allows the music video making process smoother than it normally would. The song gained traction through a popular children's show, Teen Titans Go. This was one of the reasons my group and I chose this song, as we have seen the show and enjoyed it. We also loved the song and how it flowed, the beats, the rhythm, and the lyrics all work well together, making the song pleasant to listen to. The production of a music video to this song would be interesting and fun to create. We do not have an exact story/scenes in mind but I am sure that we can find some.

Pitch 2: I'm Still Standing- Elton John
This is also a song with and 80s' style, but it was actually released in the 80s'. This was our second choice for the music video since it is a song which a lot of people are familiar with and has a happy, upbeat tone and rhythm. The story the song tells is also enticing, and could make for a good music video. It is a good contender with The Night Begins to Shine, but my group and I did notice some flaws. For one, while the lyrics are good, it does seem like it would be harder to produce an actual story telling music video with this song. Another reason it was less favored was because it didn't resonate as much with the group. While it is a great song, The Night Begins to Shine simply sat with the group and I better, and this definitely went into the final decision. I'm Still Standing is a great song and could make for a great music video.

Ultimately, my group and I went with pitch 1, The Night Begins to Shine. This song simply resonated with us more, as we are more familiar with it and simply enjoy it more, as well as having a better creative vision with this song, making it the choice for the music video.

Production Blog Editing Software CapCut FT

In the past, my group and I have always used Cap Cut as our main source of editing. When it came time to start editing, we knew we were going to use Cap Cut . There had been a problem when we first started, however, as I've mentioned in past blogs . The US was going to ban Cap Cut , and they did. Use of Cap Cut in America was banned for around a week which frightened my group. Luckily, we still had not begun editing, so this was not a stopping point. My group and I just chose to use Cap Cut because it is the easiest and most diverse software there is for free . For one, the software's import and export features made it super easy to put in the clips and audio we needed. For the clips, all we had to do was drag the files from our File Explorer into the app. The clips were then put into CapCuts “library ”, And we're made easy to browse through. The same process happened with the audio. We would import it using MP3 from whatever website we found the copyright free a...

CCR Commercial

  Creative Critical Reflection   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?   T he product which I used, Powerade, followed most of the traditional conventions of its past commercials, but also made sure to challenge some of them. The norm for the conventions for a sports drink commercial like P owerade would be fast jump cuts, inspirational music, quick paced movements, and sweating. While my group and I’s commercial does follow most  of the conventions, it also challenges some and goes against the grain of normal conventions of a sports drink commercial . The commercial did not include inspirational music, instead it used pop music from popular artist Bon Jovi ; it also did not put emphasis on the color of the Powerade drink like other commerc ials do .   My commercial did use jump cuts, an d sweating, and showed athletic movements, which did follow th e norm for the conventions , making...
