Royalty Free Music

-

 Todays blog is about music. We waited to do music until we were finished with all the scenes because we thought it made more sense that way. We knew from the very beginning  we would have scary and suspenseful music. We figured we wouldn't need any famous artist song so we didn't email anyone. Thankfully we were right. We all went to parkers house after school so we could finish this up. Parker and I looked up "royalty free music" at first i thought it was an actual website until i realized there are so many different websites and the music that we use is royalty free. We found this website called "pixabay.com" this gave us the option to search up genre or mood of music we wanted to use. I typed in "scary suspense." There were so many options to choose from so I played them all and we listened for one we thought would fit. We ended up using three songs. The first one is for the title sequence. This song is called "drone" and it sounds spatial and eerie. we like this because you can see Naomi cleaning up the blood and texting her next "victim." The second song we used it called "cinematic atmosphere" we mostly used this so it wouldn't sound weird when the first song stopped. It sounds pretty calm and spiritual. The last song isn't from the website it is from youtube. We wanted a much more speedy scary sound and we couldn't find it on pixabay.com so we search up "royalty free suspense music" on youtube. We knew right away we wanted the one we chose. The music makes it sounds so much better and i really like the outcome.

Critical Reflection

  “Time For Dinner” the short film portrays imagination through a young child's eyes. Toys may just look like plastic things with no life to them to us now, but we did not always think that way. Adults once too would sit for hours at a time playing with those ‘plastic things’. Somehow, our brain was able to create a whole new world with characters we created, and sometimes we would forget the real world for a second. It seems as though no one truly recognizes or appreciates imagination, and that is exactly what I wanted to show with this short film.  My movie represents children's imagination and how things children see in everyday life can affect their mind. Society has become a scary world to live in and sometimes it is hard to shield the young generation from it. A parent could innocently be watching the news and a storyline of a dangerous crime can come on while their child is near. This new concept of crimes like theft, killing, and other things can cause a child to thi...

  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'...

      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.                                                                ...
