Scene 1: the first scene shows the main character lying in bed sleeping and the alarm is going off   Scene 2: the second scene just moves to a closer birds eye view. At the point, the lyrics are saying “long a go” signaling that he is dreaming of when they dated. Scene 3: The third scene takes a look inside of his dream, this shows flashbacks of when they dated doing things like holding hands, walking etc. Scene 4: when the flashbacks are over, the lyrics say “just a dream” and that’s when he wakes up and walks over to his phone   Scene 5: when he’s in his phone he goes to text messages and texts the lyrics as they play “are we still friends”  Scene 6:It shows her phone with the text message popping up  "can we be friends." you can see her from over the shoulder and she  is just on her phone and the message pops up. This will also be an over the shoulder shot. Scene 7:He then says the next line "are we still friends." looking sad and vulnerable. This will

Props:  In our research, we discovered that in most of Tyler the Creator's videos, he incorporates props. A common prop was a phone. We will use this in our music video. A car will be one of our props, also, an alarm clock, a dog, a leash, and maybe utensils and plates/cups.  Costumes:  The main character who the story follows will be dressed in things like hoodies, sweatpants, clothes that give off sad emotions. The girl he sees at the end will be dressed in pajamas, and when she reveals the man next to her, he will also be in pajamas. Throughout the video, characters other than the main one will be in preppy, happy clothes.  Schedule:  11/18/2021  we will do our story board                    11/21/2021  we will begin our filming                    11/28/2021  we will continue filming                    12/5/2021  we will edit our clips  This schedule is flexible and allows makeup time incase last minute changes are needed Location list:  Our locations include my and Nicole's

CAMS:  There is no music video for our song choice, Are we still friends by Tyler The Creator, so we looked at his othe songs to do our research. We noticed a lot of usage of tracking shots. A character would be seen traveling from place to place. Also, the camera would pan across the landscape to show establishing shots a lot. There are also a lot of close ups and POV shots.  CLAMPS: The costumes are regular attire for the most part, nothing exactly special. Lighting depends on the scene, but a lot of his videos have an outside setting . As far as acting, we can see real emotion in all of the actors' facial expressions. The music is obviously the song in the background. Props used a lot were phones, food, and cars. The setting was generally outside, with a lot of nature, or inside with low depressing lighting because most of his songs are on the sad side.  SOUND: The sound is the song in the background, there are a decent amount of beat drops in Tyler The Creator's songs, so w

In this project, I decided to work with three of my closest friends in my class.  I chose to work with them for many reasons.  They are all productive, responsible, and also very creative.  My teammates are Mila (who I have known since 3rd grade), Violet (who I have known since the beginning of my sophomore year), and Dara (who I have known since the end of freshman year).  We have distributed roles between the four of us, in a way that we believe will help us complete this project in the most efficient way.  My job is to be one of the actors, as well as one of the producers of the music video.  These roles were assgined to me because my group and I believe that I am very good with expressing feelings on camera.  I also know how to utilize the best shots for the production.  Next is Violet, who was also assigned to act and film with me.  We both believe that we can work together to get the best shots with our acting and filming skills.  We believe that Violet could be a cord actor in o

I plan to be a family attorney and I feel that I can assist families that go through unfortunate divorces.  This decision came soon after I experienced my own parents' divorce.  I would also like to develope a business or to have a side job involving media, where I can combine my work experience with my talents, as well as presenting my contribution to the community.  I am currently participating in various clubs at school.  I am part of the Environmental Club, Best Buddies, and just recently auditioned for the school dance team.  I am a competitive dancer at the Dancers' Training Spot, where I have been dancing for the past 2 years.  I started dancing since I was 3 years old.  Dance is my way to express my feelings and find myself during both good and not so good times. It also allows me to bring up som
