Music Video | Group Blog

     The decision of who I was working with for this project was made almost immediately. There was no way I was doing this on my own, that's why I decided to work with my best friend Tantou Kebe.

    Although she's my friend, this isn't the only reason I chose to work with her. Me and her are close because of our shared aspirations and likes. Media is both of our passions and we plan to put our all into this project. I know she's ambitious about this, and so am I, that's why I believe she's just the perfect person to do this project with.

    Me and Tantou are both very eager about this, and she has a lot of the technical equipment that we can use for our short music video. With our passion and the tools we need, we're both very excited about this project and working on it.

    Throughout class, we spent a lot of time going back and forth on what song we wanted to do and what the story behind it will be. After thinking hard and running out of class time, we agreed and finalized our decision on the song "Dark Red" by Steve Lacy.

    We were talking about what the story should be in the music video, and we decided it would be about a toxic couple. While the lyrics of the song sound lovey-dovey, they can easily be turned around with some visuals to create a sort of twisted and obsessed love, and we know exactly how we want to portray that.

The variety available is smaller than I expected but still with many good options, presenting an exciting challenge in choosing which of the sequences to write about. With 107 feature film title sequences on the side, each one promises a unique cinematic experience. Delving into sequences from different genres adds a layer to my research, allowing me to explore the artistry and creativity across a spectrum. This platform has become my go-to hub for watching and reviewing these sequences for my project, providing an experience for my title research.

FONT - The font I will be using will probably be a simple font such as " Helvetica " or " Montserrat ". I don't want to use something too techie-looking or fancy since this takes place in a somewhat casual and modern setting. COLOR - I might just do a simple white with some black outline to give contrast and have the titles easily seen. I may or may not end up doing something a little more exciting and less generic, but I'll play around with how it looks as I edit the opening sequence. TITLE - Since the story is meant to be about jealousy, I was thinking of calling it something like "Green" symbolizing an envious "Green-eyed monster" in folktales. If this ends up being the case, I'll probably add some more green into the titles and story to convey this subtly. I don't want to call it something edgy like "envy" or "vengeance."  That sounds pretty corny to me. Titles may enter and exit the screen to a series o...
