Editing and Crying

Image
Welcome to one of my last blogs. In case you forgot my name, its Jenna and I'm ready to tell you about the painstaking process of editing. I already have all my videos, now its time to complete the horrible amazing process of editing. I had to once again, buy the song. For the high price of $1.29, "Never Going to Give You Up" is now mine. Unfortunately, I bought the song before my partner told me she could do it on her own. On Capcut. Which I tried to do, but failed. I was so mad at myself. Because I spent a good twenty minutes of my free time struggling to do it. But in the end, we decided she would do the editing. Meanwhile, I'll stick to the revisions. This is because Capcut is better than iMovie and I only know iMovie. We will also be showing the final product to some classmates to get their opinion on it. We are so excited for the final product. I can't wait to finish this project. It will give me a chance to relax without the constant stress of an unfinished...

Oops! A big change!

 Its Jenna again! My partner and I have decided to make some big changes since we last spoke. We have decided to completely change our music video due to budget and timing reasons. Instead of the Princess and the frog pop song, we've changed it. Our new song is "Never Going to Give You Up" by Rick Astley. We will be using my French bulldog, Luna, as our star actress, because other actresses failed us. We plan to film her running away and then me finding her. I chose her because of her cuteness and her ability to stay by my side without a leash. She is a very good girl. This also the convention of animals in my music video. We also needed a prop. So I got my Polaroid and took a picture of Luna, and then my other dog, because I felt bad. We started filming yesterday. It was very hard to film the scenes of her running away due to the fact that she refused to leave my side the entire time. My favorite scene is definitely the reuniting  scene because it's so adorable. She ...

My last MV

  Welcome to my production blog. Janae and I are happy to say that we began filming and finding actors are friends. Sam has volunteered graciously to play one of the characters she is in the theater program and think she would make a great fit for this video. she has an artsy sense of style, and knows how to navigate a Camera easily. The costumes looks stunning. My favorite is probably Janae‘s costume which has bright, glittery sparkles, and really compliments her eyes. She is in love with her costume and is thrilled to be wearing it for a music video. M my costume is also wonderful. I feel it suits me very well. I feel I could wear it on a daily basis and not feel weird, so I feel comfortable spending my money on that. I was a little taken back about how much it costs due to me working minimum wage, but Janae assured me that I would fall in love with it and I’m so glad she made me buy it because it is my favorite dress. We will be using fairy lights as props and a trumpet and some...

Production Blog Day One

  Hello, it’s Jenna! This is my first Production blog for my music video. Unfortunately I was hit by car and sprained my thumb in the process. This means I will have Postpone production for about a week when I can comfortably take my splint off. I have also hadn’t gotten a chance to go shopping for my costume for music video. My partner Janae is going to be the main producer of the video. this is because she has impeccable taste, and is more sure of what to do for this assignment then I. We have decided to sell next Monday due to the fact that he was early release. However, we still need volunteer actors to play in our film, and we are struggling to find those. I am planning to ask my friends I have the next Class. I am struggling a bit to do my production blog because I have to use voice to text in order to type them to the fact that I cannot use my thumb. We are going to do a Tiana themed music video from Disney. I wanted to do something a little bit different however Janine’s si...
