This scene will be filmed from a wide shot in order to show the actors and their surroundings.  Scene 2: Allison puts her feet up on the dash board. This scene will be filmed from a mid shot in order to emphasize the lyrics "kick your pretty feet up on my dash". Scene 3: Darrow starts to drive slow down the street.

  Props: Since my group has decided to do a country love song, our props will include a car, cowboy hat, phone and flowers. We will use those props to make our music video feel like a typical country music video. This will add to the theme we are trying to portray. Costume: In the music video 2 group members will be the main characters while the other 2 are filming. Our actors will be wearing country style clothing such as jeans, flannels, cowboy hats, and boots. These clothes are typically seen as the country aesthetic and will add to the country love story that is being depicted. The jeans will be navy blue and the flannels will be red and checkered. They will appear casually dressed and not too clean, we are going for an authentic cowboy and cowgirl look.  Schedule: On 11/9/21, our group researched conventions and codes of country music videos. On 11/15/21, our group established the props, costume, schedule, backup plan and location list. On 11/19/21, our group will create th

For shooting this music video I am working with 3 people (not including me) in a group. The group consists of Allison Nordyke, Ella Wills, and Sophia Pollack. I think we will work very well together because we have a very good chemistry with each other. I have known all three of them since elementary school in which we all attended VSY and have been close friends with them since middle school which we also all attended Sunrise Middle. Since I grew up with them even some of our parents are friends. I will be a good contribution to this group because I am a very good photographer and have a nice camera. I am also a very good actor and have lots of knowledge on music on many genres. I've as well seen lots of music videos from all different genres even country. The song we are doing is a country song, "Meant to be" by Bebe Rexha and Florida Georgia Line, while I've never listened to this song until today and I enjoy it and think I will do well making a music video too it.

  Hello, my name is Darrow Nasca. I was born August 1, 2005 in Chicago Illinois. I'm half Italian and half Jewish. Media studies is a class that really peaked my interest because I am a very big fan of movies. Some of my favorites including a Bronx tale, Django unchained, the pursuit of happynes, and all of the marvel movies. Along with movies, I also like music a lot. Artists that I like include Frank Ocean, Mac Miller, Drake, and Kanye West. I like there music because they are very versatile. Other things I like are going to the gym, boxing, Muay Thai, video games, basketball, and skating. Muay Thai  is a martial art and combat sport that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This discipline is known as the "art of eight limbs" as it is characterised by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees and shins. It is probably my favorite thing to do in my free time. My name has a very interesting back story, my full name is Darrow Boren Nasca. Darrow

 My team is doing a Red Bull commercial. In most energy drinks there are extreme sports like skating, biking, and skiing. They wear things like skate shoes, biking helmets, and goggles for skiing. Props include skateboards, bikes, and skis. They normally appear very sweaty and tired but then they drink the Red Bull and are refreshed. In Red Bull Commercials it starts slow paced and then become very fast was someone takes a drink of the redbull. 

 My team is Ella Wills and Dellana Radzwell. I think very highly that me and my partners will work very well together. I believe this because I have known both Ella and Dellana since kindergarten and are very good friends with them. Ella is very good at filming videos because she has lots of experience with it. She aswell is a very good actor and so is Dellana. Our product is redbull, Ella and I will be acting, dellana will be filming and we will try to get people from other groups to act with us. We are very excited to work on this project and can't wait to start it.
