  1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?
- The music video my group and I produced coneys various different conventions compared to other films that commonly do not. The video used conventions such as a musical, family, and comedy. The video does not generally represent any issues but it does in fact show that during the holiday times people are able to come together and enjoy their time collectively. 

2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?
-It engages with audiences by telling a joyous story of a holidays everyone knows and loves. The video would be able to be shown during holiday times when people would like a laugh and smile while also wanting to sing along to a song everyone once again knows and loves. 

3. How did your production skills develop throughout this project?
- Compared to the last project and from the beginning of this project to the end I feel as everything was a lot more organized and not only I, but everyone in my group was very on top of our work. 

4. How did you integrate technologies - software, hardware and online  in this project?
- We integrated different online techniques and software. This can be seen in the effects, transitions, and editing that was done throughout the video. An example of this is when the scene of santa “checking his list”. It cuts to a scene with a holiday transition on between. In the corners it can also be seen that different decals were included to further express the idea that he was in fact “making a list and checking it twice”.

Filming process

 Hey guys! It's Anayah and welcome back to my blog! Yesterday we filmed our music video! Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it while we were actually filming. I wasn't able to make it due to family issues, but I really wished I could be there! Since I wasn't able to be there we found a couple of people that were willing to help us film. Billy wasn't able to make it either so Hunter and Robert really made a lot of things happen. We brought in five extra people to help film. The extra people along with Hunter were the main actors while Robert filmed. Like I said in the last blog they were all supposed to meet at 1:30 but the time got pushed back. While they were filming they went to different parts of the mall. A lot of the filming took place in the middle of the mall in front of the big Christmas tree. A lot of parts were also recorded inside of Macy's. The vision from the storyboard we made really came to life! From all the videos I saw I could truly see that e...

Here’s our pitch!

Image
  ◦ Pitch 1: After a year of losing the battle of love, Hunter Pangia decides to get his revenge on Cayden and take back what he wants rightfully.  ◦ Pitch 2: A mysterious figure lurking on 63rd murders 63 people to get it 'Back in Blood' while Lil Baby and Da Baby investigates.  Pitch 1: We really like this pitch because it's something we can relate to and actually film. We have the perfect setting for this as all we need is a gym and a place to train. For creating an opening sequence, this can be done well as we can establish the story easily and have the resources necessary. This pitch would be more about training and fighting and this requires dim lighting for training and someone who can train. Hunter is the perfect candidate for this because he works out a lot and has a history of something like this happening which will help with the acting. The cons of this would be establishing a genre and having the camera skills to film these shots.  Pitch 2: This ...
