Introduction to My Music Video


  Welcome to my first blog post. My name is Alex Nordyke. I don't particularly like writing about my self but I need a good grade in this class. I like to go to the gym. I feel the gym is very important for youth. It can help improve mental and physical health. I also enjoy boating and various water sports. I've always had good balance so board sports come naturally to me. I wouldn't go as far to say that I'm an "adrenaline junkie," but I do like doing things that put me outside of my comfort zone. I've recently learned how to do flips in to water and from various heights. Whenever I'm with my friends I always teach them what I learn and we progress together. I also don't like school. I've always felt school is a waste of time in terms of the material we are learning. Although there are some exceptions. I don't predict that this will change though. In terms of learning social skills though, school is great. I feel that the social impact that school has on kids is way more beneficial than most of the time we spend learning in class. I also hate politics. I think it is important to stay informed on current events so you can have educated opinions, but I don't enjoy debating about these things. Lots of people are however miss informed about these topics because of untrustworthy biased news sources. I look forward to doing this music video. I think it will be a fun project. Well that's all I have for today.

Day 1 of Editing

Welcome back! Today marked our group's first editing session. Challenges arose as conflicting schedules prevented us from meeting in person. To address this, we utilized a group chat and phone calls for remote collaboration. Our choice of editing software, Cap Cut, stemmed from its user-friendly interface and accessibility. Given our limited editing experience, the simplicity of Cap Cut suited our needs. We strategically began editing from the movie's start, avoiding confusion with random clips. Starting with the title screen, we organized and edited the clips in chronological order. Nathaniel suggested a comic sans font for a playful and comedic tone in the titles. With the title screens finalized, we proceeded to edit scenes, like the living room and kitchen. Longer scenes posed challenges due to camera setup intricacies during filming. Coordinating shots with all three of us in-frame required careful camera placement. Despite these challenges, we successfully edited the livi...

Media CCR

This is my CCR. I hope you enjoy. Script: hello and welcome to my CCR I'm going to be answering a few questions while trying to Sol solve various wooden puzzles um so the first question is how does your products use or challenge conventions so some common conventions for comedy movies would be a more predictable comedy sense because most comedy movies are um light-hearted and use widely accepted comedy values to most people um and our video does the opposite by introducing um stuff like alcohol um underage uh drinking and stuff like that um so we Tred to follow a unpredictable script with most of our um writing and we also use darker themes like um underage drinking peer pressure and temptation to do uh illegal activities when you're younger for the Montage were things that you'd see in a lot of other movies um the other part of the question is how does it represents social groups or issues um our project uh touches on the problem of underage drinking and also peer pressure...
