Group Blog

For this project, I'm going to be working with one other person. It is my sister her name is Natalie. I chose to work with her because I wanted to be in a group for this project. I could do a better job being in a group because both of us can contribute, and having another person could make the music video enjoyable. Both of us are different so, in the music video l can have our creativity together to make a good commercial. I found my group member because she is my sister we both take this class but, in different periods.  Since I'm her sister  I know what her work ethics are like. And I can trust her that she will help with the music video al and get the work done. The song they were doing is "You Broke Me First" by Tate McRae. Selecting a song was a long process because it was a hard time to choose which artist to do since there were so many. Both of us made a list and I contributed some artists or songs that could be possible. After through the list, there were two songs left to choose from. It was Tate McRae's song "You Broke Me First" or "Greedy". I decided to choose Tate McRae's song "You Broke Me First" because it had a good meaning to it when I was researching the song. I liked this song a lot when I listened to it compared to "Greedy".  It made me think of a storyline for the commercial so, I asked my sister if she was okay with it and she agreed. I believe my sister and I can make a good music video from this song. I already came up with possible storylines that we can do. I'm excited to work on this project. Thank you and bye.

Adding transitions and overlays

 On February 27 I continued to edit my opening sequence. On this day I did overlays and added transitions. I wanted to add an overlay for the scene when the main character was calling her friend on the bed. To do this I changed my own contact's name to "bestie" and made it look like I was calling someone. I took a picture of the call. Then imported the picture to CapCut. To do this I clicked on the "add photo" at the bottom of CapCut and then chose the photo I wanted. After I clicked on the photo went to the options on the bottom and chose "overlay". After choosing the overlay I dragged it to the scene where I wanted. Adjusted the size and placed it on top of my phone. Then adjusted the length of the overlay of how long I wanted to have it on the screen. This was a little bit hard to do because I hadn't done something like this before. So, to add this overlay it took about forty-five minutes or more to do. I did the same steps for the "unknown...

Finding music and adding it to the opening sequence

 On February 28 I was finding the music to use for my opening sequence. For my opening sequence, I needed to use copyright-free music. I was able to find some on YouTube that were copyright-free by searching for them. I needed to find an upbeat and cheerful song to use for the beginning of the opening sequence when the main character is listening to music. So, the first thing I searched for was copyright-free music for pop. The song that I found and used was Royalty Free uploaded by a YouTube channel that allows them to use their music as long as you give them credit. I used the "BreakingCopyright" YouTube channel's "Crazy About You" song for the beginning of my opening sequence. Another song that I used that was able to be free was "Mystery 7 Suspense Background Music for Films & Documentaries" by the YouTube channel "LVKEHOUSE" which allows anyone to use these sounds without any copyright claims. To find the mysterious sound effects I w...
