Music Videos to Me

Music has a tendency to stir your emotions. It can make you feel overwhelmed with happiness or sadness. Every individual has a unique perception of a song they listen to. However, putting pictures to those melodious words can give a whole new meaning to it. Depending on how the director depicts the song using moving pictures, a whole new direction is given to it in a MUSIC VIDEO.

Today and tomorrow's scenes mostly included the stabilizer shots so that I could be done with using the stabilizer and return it back to the school's media lab (because other groups would want to use it as well). The numbers written in the list are the same as the numbers I wrote with the scenes drawn in the rough storyboard. After today's shoot, I ticked the scenes that were successfully filmed so that I could complete the ones that were left tomorrow. Yesterday I also made a list of all the props and people required for today's shot and messaged my actors accordingly.  I had informed my actors to arrive at 8am. This was important since today's shots were taken in a public park and an area surrounded by restaurants and cafes where it gets crowded after 11am. I stabilized the stabilizer before the actors arrived. I filmed those shots first that re...
