Music Video Finale


FINAL BLOG POST FOR THE 2016 KMS GT STUDENTS YAYY.

Baby Tu and Mama Tessa
(We used the stroller as an equipment to stabilize our shots
as we move while lip syncing!) 
School is almost over! HALLELUJAHH!! This is the final blog post I will be writing, and it is our last project- music video. We are doing a song called "Girls just wanna have fun" by Cyndi Lauper. This song doesn't really have a storyline, it is just basically about girls having fun. The girls's parents in the song are worried, don't know what the girls are going to do with their lives. The girls do not care however, they just want to have fun :). My teammates are Tessa and Meagan (yes same as last year). We have been planning since the beginning of the school year hehe.
I couldn't blow the flowers. Tessa came and help me. We still
couldn't blow the flowers :/

My most favorite fast-edit montage is at the beginning of the song when Meagan and I came to take Tessa away from her homework and then she throws the paper in the air. It is my favorite because the sequence- shots of Tessa writing, perfectly synced with the beat of the song as the audience seeing the 3 shots sequence (wide, medium, close). When Tessa throws the paper in the air, the shot then changes to a shot of Tessa standing in her house, her "babe" is calling her. The dad standing in front of her and looks mad and asks "What are you gonna do with your life". If you ask me what is my second favorite shot , that would be the shot of Tessa talking on the phone because of the different angles that keep me interested in the video not just looking at a wide shot all the time.

Thanks for the popcorn Tessa!
Megan looks so cute!




This music video really shows how far in advanced we have gotten in lip-syncing to songs, match the audio, and out of all- editing. We have also added some composition techniques in the video that we had learned in GT earlier in the year. Having a variety of different shots at different locations, I think, it really keeps the audience entertained through out the video. An improvement I have noticed on all our class' music videos is the acting. This year, I think we have more confidence and excitement because everyone in transferring to high school next year and so they probably think "Oh, since it is the end of middle school, lets get weird! It's not like we are going to see it our embarrassing moments again!". 

GT is my favorite class, although, sometimes we have some really difficult assignments, but we always manage to get through it. Being in this class, I feel like I am never being judged by anyone. I feel like nobody is going to judge me because of where I am from, my language, my idiosyncrasy, the way I speak. Everyone has respect for each other, they listen to each other's opinion and take that idea and turn it into something..AMAZING. #GTisthebest
