TA06 AICE Media Studies

Hi there, my fellow people! The summary is as follows: What happens when I immerse myself in a creative endeavor? It means turning my small house into a set for a minute and fifteen seconds. It must be genuine magic in a music video. It is inspired by Melanie Martinez's incredible song "Mrs. Potato Head." The narrative is set in a backyard, a living room with a television, and a hospital bed.First things first: the challenging chore of figuring out where in my house is best. Should I go with the cozy vibe of my bedroom with its vintage style and mirrors? Alternatively, perhaps the move is the quirky living room with its flatscreen TV.  I want to use a lot of the aspects from Melanie's video because I love it so much. Nevertheless, I still want to explain how I heard her song. Make decisions, make decisions. I believe I'll film in my bedroom and living room for various scenes. Take the scene with the girl watching TV in the living room and the hospital bed, for ins

 This blog will go more into depth on tasks that I know are required to drum up the outcome I want to see. For example; A detailed storyboard is actually  challenging to overgeneralize the significance of.  A music video given the complex tango between sound and vision involved. Imagine this: each frame is a brushstroke on the storytelling canvas, a rhythm of the music in perfect sync with a visual story. This is the delight that emerges from a brilliantly designed storyboard. An illustrated sequence of frames that lays out the shots and scenes in a video is what a storyboard essentially is: a visual blueprint. It's the blueprint that makes abstract musical notation into a concrete and visually stunning experience. One of the most important steps in the production process is creating a storyboard. Directors, producers, designers, animators, and cinematographers can easily share storyboards with one another as a team because they are a visual communication tool. It ensures that ever

       There are multiple distinct steps in the process of production. I want to hyper-fixate on filming. After filming comes; scripting, casting, filming, editing, and screening. The demands and stages of filmmaking might change based on the project's goal and the producer or director's chosen method. Being the director allowed me to truly dictate what happened exactly. Directors are leaders, whether it's making creative decisions, handling problems, or overseeing the entire production, they need to act decisively and promptly. Effective leadership keeps the team motivated and accomplished goals on schedule.      I feel like writing a script, the entire production team follows the script as a guide through the intricate storytelling web. It serves as a blueprint. Scripts are where ideas come to life after they develop. In this project, the task consists of creating your own music video that tells a story. Whether it's a music video, TV show, or movie, directors must ha

 I will not be working with other individuals on this project to clarify some things. It will just be me and only me. I chose to work with myself and not others because I want full control over how things turn out in this project. Being the boss of anything allows you to decide every aspect of the process to succeed. When you work alone, you may find it simpler to concentrate and complete tasks more quickly. You will also have more clarity in the task you are working on because you will not have to include the input of others. Working alone can be difficult but enjoyable. Having no team members to rely on can put your confidence and accuracy to the test as you build your own ideas. When working independently, you have complete control over any projects or tasks you work on. There is no one else to share the credit with, so your management can appreciate your abilities. The name of the song that will be used in this project is called "Mrs. Potato Head." It follows a young girl

      The song that is chosen is called "Mrs. Potato Head." In my opinion, one of the most meaningful music videos she's ever put out, focusing on the topic of eating disorders and perfect bodies.  The music industry is well-known for its emphasis on appearance and aesthetics. Artists, particularly female artists, are frequently subjected to enormous pressure to conform to conventional beauty standards. This can lead to a fixation with body image and a drive to maintain an abnormally thin physique, which can contribute to anorexia's development. Melanie's costumes for essentially all of her music videos are very "baby-doll" and very little girl-coded per se. The room that she's first filmed in is covered in animals from the zoo and nursey-type aesthetics throughout. My plan consists of me wearing a baby-doll dress which I do actually own conveniently. Hair in bows and convincing doll makeup. I truly don't want to spoil too much of the details. Th

      In this blog, I would like to investigate the types of shots and angles as well as the lighting, costumes, props, and makeup used in some of Melanie Martinez's music videos.  Melanie Martinez's work is very meticulous and unique. Her genre falls under alternative pop, Indie pop, alternative rock, and electropop. Though her music might be that way, the way her music videos are filmed is a whole different story. Cinematography is important in the realm of pop music videos because it shapes the visual story and enhances the overall effect of the song. Angles and shots are carefully chosen to communicate emotions, tell a story, and capture the soul of the song. Pop music videos are a dynamic combination of sound and image, and the shots and angles used in these visual spectacles are essential to their success. Directors and their staff use cinematography to create a visual language that complements the music and connects with people on an emotional level. Wide shots with larg

 Hey, it's me again Thandiwe! I look forward to sharing my skills and strategies for creating my music video! I'm only seventeen years old and have developed many short-film-style videos, thanks to this media class I'm in. I'd say I'm quite patient and very easy to work with. I'm aware of this project involving other individuals. That alone, I'm a bit nervous about because working with others forces you to put your own ideas aside. This project I'm presuming this will be easy to conquer because I will choose other individuals who have similar end goals as me. I sort of want this music video-themed project to be on trend for the upcoming holiday season. I can imagine it now, a Halloween-themed, horror-type beat. I want the audio and images to be quite scary but not disturbing. A big interest of mine is scary things. Fun fact: I was born in Zimbabwe, which is where my name comes from. Growing up in South Florida has been a wonderful experience, and I can&#
