The Commercial

 We did it boys! It was a challenge but I made it. Is it the best? Probably not, but I'm proud of it anyway. Hope whoever watches this will enjoy it as much as I did.

Editing Blog for The Music Video

Image
 Hello again, this is Jeremiah. For the past few days I have been working on my music video. At the moment, I am working on my editing for the video. Similar to the filming, there are some problems that I have been coming across. Since it takes place at night, trying to make it watchable without overdoing the exposure is troubling. I am thinking about just using a flashlight in the night scenes but it might ruin the look of the video. I am worried about having to leave it in because I won't have time to do it over. There is also the issue of pacing. I want the content in the music video to mirror what is happening in the song when it happens. Since the music video is kind of quick, the music video will be quick as well. It worries me that the music video will be too fast and hard to watch. My final and greatest concern is the content of the song itself. I am making a music video for "Trapped in the Drive Thru", but I can't drive. That leaves me with two options. Recor...

Pitch for the Final Project

Image
      After spending a considerable amount of time thinking, I came up with an idea. A vagabond makes his ends meet through scams and hustling, and one day he tries to make it big in the casino, but things don't go as planned. I particularly like this pitch. It is simple yet effective. The premise is realistic and easy to execute on. Filming can be done indoors, so I can avoid having my schedule ruined by inopportune weather (or the judging looks of my neighbors). The grounded premise means there is no need for CGI, which is one of the projects requirements. I especially like how the pitch is still vague enough for me to exercise some creative freedom. I had many ideas for what my pitch could have been, but this is the only practical one I have found. The rules I told you about in my last blog narrowed the selection pool quite a bit. I'm working alone so something that requires multiple people to do is out of the question. I wouldn't have done it anyway, but the rest...

Planning for my Music Video

Image
 Planning The song will be on Weird Al Yankovic's "Trapped in the Drivethru." Props The props I will be using for this commercial are as follows: a hamburger, a car, and keys. Since the song is about going to a drivethru, having a burger will only be natural. By that same logic, you can't have a drivethru without driving. The keys may seem unnecessary at first but there is a specific line that refers to them, so they are needed. The video needs to align with an already existing song, so the room for creative freedom is very small. Only what is needed will be used. Costume s  The costumes for this video will be very casual. Almost makes me wonder if I should even call them costumes. The song takes place at night and is supposed to have a "just got out of bed but I'm hungry so I guess I'll do this" vibe. You will likely see me just wearing pajamas. Location  There will only be 2-3 locations: the inside of my house, my driveway and possibly a drivethru....
