Explorations Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Introduction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“How can you find, explore, and\/or expand your passion?”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Explorations Project, all Junior Freestyle students will explore their own passion and research a new skill. As a film student, we were asked to do a research project and explore a topic related to film we wanted to know more about. The majority of the project is research and knowledge, but we also have to create a final product to show our mastery. I chose to research music videos for my explorations project because I enjoy watching music videos and it is something I might want to do in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first step I took for this project was reaching out to my friend who makes music and asked if she was interested in making a music video. She said yes, and so I started brainstorming ideas and planning the video. Next, was the research portion of the project. I researched the history of music videos, how to become a music video director, client relationship, different types of music videos, pre-production, production, and post production. After collecting research, it was time to film. I used my research to help me use effective film strategies, keep my video focused, and editing to music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a treatment I created for this music video. A treatment is made during pre-production and it is the idea for the music video in written form mixed with photos, references, color palettes, and the synopsis of what the visual will be like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
