Intro to new project

Moving foward from doing my last project i now will be working on a music video. The commercial project was a good experience. There were some issues with the project unfortunately. The editing process was one of many issues the project ran into. Another issue it ran into was the filming time. Although we ran into these problems we still got our work done and on time. Now my partner's and i are in the beginning stages of making our music video.
The song we have selected is Drake's very own Nice for what. We have selected this song because of the background the song has. The song supports women empowerment and the social statue of women in today's society. Overall in the song Drake raps about the hustles women have to go through to not only make ends meet but also make names for themselves in today's society. With over 1.4 Billion view on youtube there no doubt this is one of drizzys best songs.

The song “Nice For What” fits into the genre of pop/rap. So for the aspects of everything that goes into the scenes of the music video we will follow what is generally used in pop/rap music videos. General things that apply to this genre’s music video are uplifting concepts and an all around fun time. The “costumes” in pop/rap music videos vary from casual clothing to dressy clothing. Artist often dress to match the aesthetic/artistry of their specific song so their is not one single costume used. The lighting used in these videos may also very to fit the purpose of the song.

For example if the song is about a day on the beach the lighting will most likely be bright and natural, but if its about a fun night party it might be strobe and dim lighting. The acting also pertains to the purpose of the song. Whatever message the artist is trying to get across will be portrayed through the acting. The make-up for these videos are generally just a nice face of make up. Meaning  one may be having a full face of makeup for the purpose of enhancing their features. The props used in this genre are also specific to the purpose of the song. The video will have props that will efficiently get the them across.  For the setting it also depends on the song and the message of it.

The conventions of this music video are those of a pop or rap video. The lighting that would be in the video are very bright colors that stand out. The setting of pop video can vary some may include
places like California, LA, New York, London or Paris. These places are well know for the city lights and atmosphere. or party scenes. Some camera angle and shots can be a Eye level angle, High angle shot, Low angle shot, close up shots, Medium shots, and Wide shots. The Editing that is done for a music video can be addind tints and filters to boost coluors. Another edit is to photoshop the artist so they look as close to perfect as possible.
