Nijah's next task was to pick music for her commercial. She has a lot of favorite genres such as r&b, neo-soul, hip-hop, rap, and indie. It took her sometime time to narrow down her genres. She narrowed down to r&b and neo-soul for this commercial. R&b means rhythm and blues, Nijah enjoys this genre a lot because this is a genre she grew up on. It is very nostalgic for her. The next genre she chose is neo-soul, which is very similar to soul music, but with a modern-day twist on it.

Nijah's first song she chose was Pyramids by Frank Ocean. This falls under the genre of neo-soul. She is implementing this song into her commercial because she has a strong love for this song and artist. She takes the audio clip from YouTube. Then she adds the song to the background of her intro for her commercial. Nijah uses the cap cut app and her photos app for this process.

The next song Nijah chose was Speed by Kali Uchis. This song falls under the genre of both neo-soul and r&b music. She is adding this song to her commercial because of the vocals and the love of the artist. She takes another audio clip of this song, but this time she is using Spotify. Instead of using the version with words, she uses the instrumentals. Then she adds the song as a background audio for the pictures using cap cut. 

Implementing these songs to the video will make it more interesting. In this whole process she uses the apps YouTube, Spotify, Photos App and CapCut.

Production Blog: Filming

 The group filmed today again. It's always hard to plan but the group came together and finally figured it out. The group had to film the next part of their storyboard. The next piece of the project to record was the girl walking home with the man stalking her. Imani acted as the little girl and Adrian acted as the man stalking her. Callie spent a decent amount of time trying to get them to act right for the film. Act correctly as in get into actor mode, not regular person mode. Callie considers herself the director of the film. The rest of the group believes that she is crazy, but they digress. Callie was teaching Adrian and Imani how to act due to her being able to see how everything looks. She knew what to add and knew what to take out. She also told them how to add more emotion to their acting. The group took about an hour and thirty to film. They got their filming done, but this was the longest process that it has ever taken for them. Another factor that affected the process w...

Art of the Title Website

The websites that we will be researching for our title design are very helpful and valuable to the project. The first website that we used for our title design was "  Art of the Title ". This website showcased popular, award-winning movies. It also provided different designers and studios with different movies under their names and allow people to go through each movie and view the title designs. It also provides credits, presenting the different names and their jobs designing the movie. It also provides the music and artist. This website is really beneficial to our group because it gives us a guideline on how to create our own title designs. Another website is " Watch the Titles ". This website provides interviews of the designers who create the title designs. It provides different sections between featured films, student projects and more. This website provided our group block buster movies, and showed how to create an amazing title sequence.
