Music Video Finale

P1T6 Stay from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.
Embedded VIMEO & 3 unique Behind The Scenes

Cite Musician & 2 minutes of the Song Lyrics used


Our story line is about Kyler cheating on Lani, Talia and I. We were all sad and so was he because he loved all of us and didn't want to chose one of us. He was sad and upset because he wanted all of us to stay, but he hurt us. It related to our lyrics because the song is Stay by Rhianna, and it's about wanted people to stay and not leave. I think that our song is making our story come together and really work out perfectly!

My favorite fast-edit montage sequence is is of Kyler. The lighting is perfect so it makes him look like he's glowing. I also like another fast edit montage sequence of Talia, Kyler and I. Again, the lighting is amazing and we acted very well in it. We have a very good amount of fast-edit montage sequences in our story, and I'm very proud of all of them.
My music video showcases our best work by having really good sequences of wide, medium, and close. We also used some good filming techniques like rule of thirds, etc. We edited together all of our lip-syncs perfectly to make it look like we were actually singing, and I think that is a good example of our best work also. We have so many really clear focused shots with perfect lighting which make our video so much better. This is the last blog post I will ever post to my blog, so see you never!!!! Peace.

Animated Life Lessons

P1T5 Students Hate Assignment from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.




Some of my team's personal character traits included Alani's hunger sneeze, Tessa's clumsiness, Chazz's negativity, and Asha's perkiness. We exaggerated those traits by making them occur more often than they do in real life. We all acquire the traits that we exaggerated, but we just embraced them a little bit more. The traits that we exaggerated made our story more humorous and entertaining.





We used humor in our story mostly by exaggeration. Alani doesn't sneeze that much when she's hungry, however she does sneeze once or twice. Tessa doesn't fall every 5 seconds either. We exaggerated their weird traits that make them different, and it added humor to our animation. It could relate to our audience because we all have those little weird things that we do, but they make us who we are.
I think that my team worked okay together. We did struggle with motivation and some other things, but I think we pulled it together. At times we would yell at each other, or scream. And at other times we would just give up. But then we just stuck with it and pulled ourselves together. Our level of productivity was okay, but not the best. We weren't do great at communicating with one another, but we worked that out. Our best moment during production was probably... okay we didn't really have one.
