Building Plans for My Music Video!


     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. The guest appearances that will be happening, they will be wearing the same kind of clothing and makeup. Whether they like it or not, I need them to convey emotion and actual suffering. Luckily for me, this production will be occurring during the spooky season. The schedule of filming is entirely up to me, due to the fact I will be working by myself, with some occasional guest appearances. Sunset around this time of year are drop-dead gorgeous and I sort of want to capture that fantasy whimsical aura. Though the sunset I would want it to be one of those pink sunsets, not the orange ones, so I will be checking for an appropriate date to film with my desired pink sunset. My lip sync needs to sync up with the speed of the mouth of a moving doll, which is going to take some actor-based practices and warmups to achieve. Location, I could get down with an empty room with select props. Select props like a rattle, fake diet pills, wedding bands, lipstick, and bloody socks. You probably like; "WHAT?!", that will be revealed later.

Filming Day 1! FT

The first  step into filming, my partner and I started off by getting together and discussing when we wanted to start filming. Then we got together which was followed by wisely choosing our setting for our first couple of shots. I wanted to start off by practicing shots with our camera on how we were going to relate the setting to the genre. In addition to establishing the atmosphere, the tone informs the audience of the type of experience they might expect. The setting creates a sense of place and mood and may reflect a character's emotional state. Filmmakers can set expectations for the audience by matching the opening scene to our genre. As a result of this, audiences are better able to relate to the movie and can anticipate the kind of plot they will see. An inaccurate representation of the genre in the opening scene may leave viewers perplexed or disappointed. My choice for our first shot, I wanted it to be Myra. Who is the character who is the villain in our opening...

The Physical Process

    Hello, as you know I've spoken on every aspect of producing, filming, and editing a commercial. This blog will primarily focus on the physical process of the filming and everything that goes in between.  Producing a commercial involves careful preparation and organization. If you have a product to promote and a marketing budget, shooting a commercial for web or television distribution may be less expensive than you think. With a simple concept, you may create a commercial on a surprisingly small budget. An effective TV commercial must be of high quality. This also means filming on a camera that will capture what needs to be perceived by the viewer. However, if you wanted your commercial to be shot in a low-quality mode, the camera wouldn't in a sense matter. It would simply have to still touch the viewers in the way you intended. With that, Quality doesn't always involve emptying your bank account to create just one commercial. Look for filming locations. Unless sever...
