Music Videos Rock!
In our project there were many jobs that had to be done, but we managed to split up the jobs pretty evenly. Michael brought a guitar which really helped and he knew how to play it as well, Miles was the idea Generator and the lead singer in the Music Video, Seth was the camera man, he shot great angles and he focused the camera really well too, and I did a lot of the editing but everyone contributed in that part, but the part we all played was just being on camera.
In my opinion, I believe that the audience will enjoy all of us trying to Lip Sync this song because people rarely see any of us trying to sing or Lip Sync and when we, well attempt to Lip Sync it, I think they will have a lot to laugh about. Even when Miles introduced this song to us, I didn't know the name of it but when I heard it, I realized I'd heard this song before.
In this project we do not use things like photoshop or Final Cut pro although we are more used to them, but we do use iMovie which is actually more advanced that final cut but still very similar to it. In iMovie we used effects that we hardly use in any other program. For example, there is a speed-up and slow down feature when editing that you can use for time-lapses which I never used before so that's new. Even filming sort of taught me more about the camera we used, for example the difference between AF ( Auto Focus ) and MF ( Manual Focus ), and even learning how to actually format it because I've had to delete things off the camera one by one because I was clueless of how to format the camera.

Lyrical Livelihood
My favorite song is " Going Down For Real " or " G.D.F.R " by Flo Rida and if you look it up then you will realize why I like it so much. The reason I like this song is because it has a really great sound and it's not too dubstep like or too plain, its just right. Another reason I like this songs so much is because it is an extremely motivational song that just gets me pumped up for anything. I first discovered this song on a commercial for a Wrestling Pay-Per View and I was just amazed by the song so I looked it up and I eventually found the same song on I tunes so I bought it, it only cost $1.29, and I couldn't stop listening to it.
My Music Video team, Miles Frazier, Michael John Anderson, and Seth Kostelecky, chose " Back in Black " by ACDC because we saw everyone pulling out really modern songs so Miles thought of this song and he knew if we performed it right, we will make everyone right with this song. Another reason is because all of our favorite songs were already being used and so we thought, " Why not Back in Black?". When I went home and told my parents this they actually started a duet in the kitchen and I was laughing so hard. When I first discovered this song was way back in Iron Man 1 in 2008.
Our visual story in our music video was going to be a group of friends who have been separated for a long time and reunited to play their favorite song. We decided to change it up a little where we have the four friends fight and go their separate ways for a bit and they begin to perfectly sing the song in sync with each other and towards the end of the song, their bond that they all share not only gets repaired, but it actually gets stronger and they walk out of it as friends.
