 Hi Blog! Camila and I decided that we want our music video to be pretty and creative. That's why we will be using Tiktok and Capcut to edit it. Since we both have different editing ways, we decided that we should both edit. The reason why we think capcut is a good app to edit our MV is because we can add many things on there. With capcut, we can add music and edit the actual video. We can merge different shots and scenes to make it more creative and cooler. Capcut is a free app to download, so we can both download it and try it out. With tiktok, we can add many different effects. We can add captions and filters. Capcut and Tiktok are similar software apps that allow us to edit easily. We want to make the music video cute and bubbly. Since the song we are going to film is a Pop song, we also would want to make the music video seem hype and not sad. Both tiktok and capcut have the same features. I think its a good idea that Camila and I both edit the music video. Once were done, we

Welcome back Blog! There haven't been any new changes made to our production planning for now. Right now we are just focusing on the filming date and schedule. And there has been one tiny change. In the beginning we decided that Camila's mom would take us to target so we could film our music video. But she works around the time that we get off of school. However, I asked my mom if she was going to be busy and she said no. My mom is going to take Camila and I to target now. Another change we made is the amount of people who are going to be in our music video. Camila and I wanted to have our friends in it. Some of our friends might not be able to make it to the filming place because they are busy. If none of our friends are able to go and help us and be a part of the music video, then Camila and I would have to make a video on our own without any guests. We might have less people than how many we initially said we wanted to have in the MV. I think that we should stay at the targe

     Hi blog! Back to our music video producing, me and Camila have made adjustments. In our storyboard we described what we were going to do in each scene. One of the scenes had us trying on costumes. When we planned this scene out it was around halloween time. When it's halloween time there's costumes everywhere. That's why we thought it was a good idea for us to try costumes in our music video. Since we were both unable to film during the dates close to halloween, target wont have anymore costumes for us to try on in our music video. We are still trying to figure out what to do with the scene. I was thinking Camila and I still do an outfit change. I think we should both pick out some clothes and try it on in the fitting rooms. We would lip-sync the scene in the fitting rooms. We would still be trying on clothes for the music video, just not costumes. For now that's the only scene which we needed to make a change in. All of the other scenes we have are good and ready

 Welcome back Blog! Camila and I have made progress with our music video. At the start of our project, we did not know how we were going to get to the target an film. We both agreed on asking our parents each and see who was available to take us both. Turns out that Camila's mom does not work the day we plan on filming, so she will be the one taking us and dropping us off at target. Camila and I were thinking about putting extras in our Music video. As I mentioned before, we were planning on using no more than ten extras in the video. We are going to ask our friends if they would like to be included in it. Im going to ask one of my friends and Camila said she will ask two. If they all agree, we would then have to take them with us to target or they would have to find their own ride there. I believe we can take them along with us since we are planning on filming afterschool. I was thinking that our friends could help us record when they're not needed for a certain or multiple sc

Hello Blog! For the music video project, I already came up with filming ideas. My partner is Camila Villatoro. My partner and I are both going to have our own ideas and we will exchange them. We will tell each other which one are better and more appropriate for the project. I was thinking me and her could start by filming the video arriving in a car at target without lip-syncing just yet. We were thinking that the scene just shows us inside the car looking out the window. The target we plan on filming in is inside a mall/plaza and it has many stores. Inside the mall, there's an area where there is a fountain and there we plan to film the start of our music video. Most scenes will only have on of us in it. Also, we are going to be the ones recording the video with no help from anyone at all. We don't know yet how we will get to our setting but we will figure it out. I was thinking we could ask Camila's mom for a ride there. If that does not work out then I could ask either m

 Hello Blog! I will introduce the member who is working with me. For my music video project, I decided to work with Camila Villatoro. Camila has AICE Media studies for 8th period. I decided to work with her because I have known her for a long time and we are pretty close. She and I have already brainstormed ideas for our music video project. I am very hardworking and so is Camila. She is good at being organized. Camila and I both searched the internet for music videos we could use as inspiration. Camila is easy to get along with, which is why I chose to work with her. She has many other qualities as well. She is very creative and open minded. This is good because the music video needs to be a creative and satisfactory project. By far, she and I have come up with good ideas for the music video together. I tell her all of my ideas and she tells me hers and decide if its good enough to be put into the music video. She also came up with the location of where the music video is going to be
