AICE Media Studies

How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?    The genre of our music video was similar, if not the same as the “inspirational” videos. This can be interpreted by the establishing shots of all videos, including ours. Introducing some kind of skeptical or uneasy feeling towards the beginning. The reason why this was kept the same was because our group felt it necessary as Halloween was right around the corner, and mystery was filling the air. All songs from our previous research blog were not only in the same genre, but also by the same artist. So, putting it all together into something of our creation was found rather easy. Our video represents, or is directed towards the younger generation. Although it was fun to film something like this, we felt it was important to emphasize that nowadays stalkers are much more common and something to be aware of. Dealing with more of the social aspect of things, it felt fitting to do a video

This is the completed music video! I hope you guys enjoy!

   Hey blog, I am back with amazing news! The music video is completed! I have been working on this for a few weeks now, and the last peer review was done today. Since the last blog, one thing has been added and that is the title "I can see you" fading into the first few shots. Other than that, I have just been looking over the transitions and the cuts to make sure everything flows nicely. I was responsible for making sure everything saved onto iMovie and nothing was discarded or rearranged for the submission. The video has been shown to a few classmates, but I mainly revised my teammates work. In which they had a lot to do with importing the transitions. So, I watched the video what feels like a hundred times. I'm satisfied with how the video came out, and have shown many of my friends not in the class. One thing for sure is that the music video was entertaining, or at least that was the feedback I had heard. Collaboratively, the editing took a little less than a week. B
