I am doing most of the editing. We decided this because I am good at editing. I’ll get Jorge and jack to help make sure everything looks good. I’m going to start editing tomorrow night. I’m going to have to borrow a sd card reader so I can transfer the footage. I will add on a LUT to make the colors better. Music videos are nice because I have more creative freedom. I’m going to add in animations. I will put in scribble animations. This is basically when you draw over each frame to make a moving picture. It is in neon lines that you draw on. I will also use green screen effects. I will use these to add onto the video. I can also do sky replacements. I will make the sky thunder in different scenes. I can also color grade. I was thinking about making the church blue or something. I am going to use the scribble effect on the Chick-fil-A food we get. I can add it into the fire when the bag is burning. I’ll also use good transitions. Thus will make the video much more smooth. I will add in a title at the beginning of the video. I am going to make the title say “Closed On Sundays.” I will take each letter from online. I can add in crosses and stuff like that. I will then place them on the desired spots. I will place them over each other on the timeline. I will shape them and scale them to the desired size. Then I will add on the Lima keyer or keyer effect onto each letter. Then I will make a compound clip out of each letter. Then I can add on other effects to make it better. I will add on the under water effect. Then u can adjust the settings to the desired look. I will add on the bad tv effect onto the compound clip. Then adjust the setting to the desired look.

Planning

Location- Our location plans are very easy. We planned on taking shots of the beach, and local waterways for our first 30 seconds because there is no sound. Once the song starts talking about Chic-Fil-A, we will cut to a real Chic-Fil-A and film that part. Our backup plan if something goes wrong would be to film outside of the Chick-Fil-A to still get the same shot. 

Health and Safety- At the beach, we would never go when it is raining to avoid lighting. Also, we would only go during the day to avoid running into bad people. When at Chic-Fil-A, we would make sure to be safe and film away from moving cars. Inside, we would be safe by asking to film before hand so we cant get into trouble. 

Props- We would have little to no props. Maybe only a phone. There is not a lot of objects in the music video, so we may just have nothing in our hands. 

Costumes- In many of Kanye West's Music Videos, he's wearing primarily casual clothing. So, our idea for costumes is to have the actors dressed up casual in accordance with the weather. For example, actors will wear T-shirts, short/pants, and sneakers.

Thanksgiving Break Filming

This weekend we ended up filming. We filmed the shots of Chick-fil-A. The first shot was a pan of the road and then stopping at the Chick-fil-A. The next shot was just of the storefront. We bought food from Chick-fil-A to use for shots. We got a paper bag to use in a couple scenes of the video. I have jack pick Jorge and I up and then we went to Chick-fil-A and we got the footage we needed. I bought a spicy chicken sand which and chicken nuggets. I also got a milkshake. We used the paper bag it all came in to use in the video. We burnt the bag for the video. It took a while to actually get to filming because jack was never available. We would text in the group chat who can film. But jack was usually busy. We finally found a day that we were all able to film. It took a while to get the pan shot. This is because we had to make sure it was the perfect distance away from the Chick-fil-A. We filmed for a couple hours. After the Chick-fil-A we went to film the other components including the scenes with the paper bag. We burnt the bag and filmed all the scenes with it. Now, all that’s left is to edit it. It will probably take about one night to edit the full video. I am going to use a LUT to make the color grading better. I will use different transitions to make the video flor smoother. Since it’s a music video there is more room for creative freedom. I’ll probably add in neon animations. Also green screen effects. I could do sky replaces too. I’ll add in a title into the beginning too. I’ll use pictures from online and then use the Lima keyer effect. I’ll use the underwater effect too. And then I’ll use the bad tv effect also. I can use the prism effect as well. I can make it fade out in the end to look cool.
