Final Task: Pitching it


 Pitch A: A girl gets lost on her way to her school, and finds a mysterious park where there are many strange creatures and the laws of the natural world do not seem to apply. She looses herself in the happening of the park dwelling creatures, but not to no cost to her life before.

Pitch B: A group of teenage girls pushed to the fringes by society find themselves in each other and discover the magic of girlhood. Their magic opens a passageway between their bedroom and a strange beach where time passes much slower than their dull reality.

I might go with pitch A because it could be fun to film and would be unqiue. However, it would be a challenge to film the creatures. It is also set in a park which I already have in mind which means planning will be much easier. I will also only use one actor which would make filming easier. I think pitch A is the most practical option which would allow me to plan fast and come out with a beautiful product.  

Pitch B is a little generic but I think it would be the most fun to film. The only issue is that there would have to be transport between a bedroom and a beach. Also, I would have to coordinate more actors and more moving parts. I do love the concept and think it could be really rewarding but I want to prioritize practicality first. I want to be able to finish this project in the most efficient way, and I think that this pitch would be difficult to streamline. I also want to save this idea for a full project, maybe a short movie. 


In conclusion, I will go with pitch A. I have a clear vision to this pitch and think it will translate well into an opening sequence. Also, it is the most practical option.

My final music video project is based on conventions that I saw while researching indie music. It sticks to the common homemade aesthetics that are seen in a large amount of indie and bedroom pop music videos. However, I challenged these conventions by using them with a song that is popular and is not indie or bedroom pop. The conventions of the genre of “Head over Heels” are often over the top with quirky visuals. I took a small bit of inspiration from these characteristics, but otherwise, I stayed true to the indie genre. It represents my friends and I’s shared cultural heritage and gender. In today's society, it can be hard to find media of young Latina girls expressing their love for art and music. Especially without a focus on their struggles and inner turmoils. There are m...

Music Video: My research

Image
 4EVER - Clairo Cameras: Slow zooms, fast pans, and short shots.  Editing: Fast cutting and grainy texture. Credit screen at beginning to introduce actors. Not full screen, cropped to about 2/3 of the whole available space.  Sound: Mostly diegetic sound throughout. However, in the first 30 seconds there is a mix between silence and the diegetic sound from the music. Mis-En-Scene- Costumes were natural and retro. Lighting was mostly natural light due to filming outdoors but occasionally cut to inside with dim warm lighting. None were wearing makeup. Actors did not put on a character and rather acted as exaggerated versions of themselves. Props included glasses, microphones, and drink cups. Setting was places around a college campus. Attention - NewJeans Cameras: Unfocused and sporadic. Many wide shots. Scenes were very short. Most shots were eye level angles. Editing: Quick and fast jump cuts. There was sparkling effects over the screen at some points. Colors were made mor...
