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 also be

Planning our video

  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 hous

  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

Intro to Group

 For my group project some may say I got lucky. I get to work with my three other friends. This may not seem like the best idea but i know they are smart hardworking individuals. I will start with myself and my task in this project. I said in my intro that I have some talent in the artistry department so that will be my job. For the story board it is important that is is easy to understand with well drawn pictures.      S econd we have Mila, I met mila last year and which is surprising because of everything with COVID. she has a very intelligent mind and a good creative eye. this means she is our editor. When we need something taken out, special effects, sound effects etc we've got our handy dandy mila.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

Intro to me!

 Hello!      My name is Dara Sedaka, I live in two house holds. One is with my dad, step mom, and occasionally my sister will come back from college, and border terrier dog named cooper. The other is with my mom, step dad, same sister, and two dogs named bear and little bear and two cats named slider and snowy. First I want to say i'm not quite sure what I want to be or study in college. ever since I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian but when I went to sixth grade I started getting more into movies. Like a lot of teens, I wanted to be an actress. I wanted to be the main character of every story however, two years later I realized I really like to film things, mostly people. Thats when I started looking into cinematography and directing. I found out about this class and thought it would such a good opportunity to learn more about what I might want to be when i'm older. luckily, it just so happened to be AICE. some of my interests include painting, drawing, soccer and hang
