Introduction to the Music Video Project

 For the Music Video project, I want to try and do it solo. Due to this pandemic, I don't have a lot of assets to go to for filming, so I'll try to manage with the filming. But, I want to manage the work by myself and not let the work go to waste. Anywhom, the song I will be using for the project is Pop Smoke's (a.k.a. Bashar Jackson) "Tsunami" featuring Davido. The song by the late Pop Smoke (who early this year passed away from a home robbery) captures the essence of love and being with someone new. Plus, I really wanted to pay respects to Pop Smoke, because he made a new wave to the hip hop/ R&B scene, along with giving back to his community back in New York. Therefore, I decided to do Tsunami, which I thought truly captured the best of what he had to offer.

Storyboard Blog (A Sudden Change in Topic)

      For my storyboard, I had to improvise and change the topic on what I would be filming.  Therefore, I changed my topic to Serato, a DJ platform for artists and deejays, containing my very own DDJ-SB3 system.     For the first shot, I want to do a somewhat "introduction" of the product. Like the name of it, the various amounts of ports, etc. This will be more of a basic start towards the rest of the video.     The second shot will have the product under usage, which will include mixing, setting tempo, and displaying the various features.     The third shot will contain its compatible programs and devices, as well as the features within those said programs.     The fourth shot will have more shots of mixing and extra tips/tricks towards the product.     The fifth shot will have the price of the product and locations to purchase it, and the last shot will disclose the company and their slogan.     I am aiming for each slide to be about 5 seconds long.

Editing Blog

    For the editing of my commercial, I ended up using Windows Movie Maker as my editing software. I felt comfortable using this as my software to edit, other than Adobe's Premiere Pro software, as I am currently unfamiliar with the interface and mechanics of the program. With Movie Maker, I understood my surroundings of the program, as everything was more accessible than Premiere Pro. I implemented features of the product like the weight, the versatility, the ease-of-use, and more. I was unsure when adding a price, but ended up doing it anyways, since the product at hand was an individual product and not a fleet of products under that brand. I used this built-in feature in Movie Maker called video stabilization which corrected most of the instability in movement and made the video an equal shot. It is an excellent feature in Movie Maker, and is very useful when you don't have the proper filming accessories. I also added music to the commercial, more specifically house music, t
