Intro to Music Video

We have finally completed our commercial and it is time to start our next project. We will be creating a music video for a song of our choice. This time I have made the decision to work by myself to save myself the trouble of group mates that do not complete their work. While it may seem more stressful I feel like I would enjoy working by myself. This is because when I have a vision of something specific it is hard for me to communicate that vision with others often resulting in my frustration. I am very excited for another opportunity to create an amazing video. Now that I have a better understanding of how to use the equipment and editing software I believe my product will be a lot better this time around.
The song that I chose to use was Cherry Cola by Jon Kuwada. I chose this song because I’ve enjoyed this song for a while and I thought it would be very exciting to make a music video to this song. My friends and I vibe to this song a lot and have a lot of fun doing so. This leads me to believe that making a music video to this song would not be challenging. This is one of the songs added to my “Road Trip” playlist and often times I dream up music videos in my head to these songs. This song in particular was one of my favorites to dream up a music video for because of the relaxing melody and catchy lyrics. It has a very dreamy feeling to it and I know that it would be a very fun experience filming a music video for this song.
1. The costumes I would use for the music video are very casual clothing and beach clothing. This song gives off a very relaxing vibe and very beachy.
2 The lighting for this commercial would be very soft and subtle. The song is not a pop song or a very upbeat song therefore the lighting should match the soft and subtle beat.
3. The actors I will use for this music video will be a large group of my friends. By using my friends it will make the music video flow and be less awkward than with my classmates.
4. I will use very little makeup for this commercial. I want the actors in the music video to appear casual and as of they are just having fun with their friends.
5. I think I will use floaties in this music video. This will add to the casual “Having fun with your friends” feeling I want to achieve.
6. The setting of my music video will be the beach and a pool. By filming at a beach I will achieve a casual chill feeling to portray the actors having fun.
I have a good feeling of the outcome of the commercial. I believe that my doing the project by myself I will have more creative direction of the commercial.
