Music Video Finale

P3T8 A Drop in the Ocean from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.
Embedded VIMEO & 3 unique Behind The Scenes & Cite Musician & 2 minutes of the Song Lyrics used
On my team for our next project music video, are my friends that I work well with and that I know are reliable. My team mates are Malia Alo, Miranda Duarte, and Jb Araula. The song we chose the song Drop in the Ocean by Ron Pope. We chose this song because we had an idea that we all thought was cool that also went well with the song.

Our storyline for Drop in thew Ocean by Ron Pope, is that Miranda has all these friends and they leave her. But each friend leaves one at a time so Miranda gets really sad making even more friends leave her. Then Miranda ends up not having any friends left so she has a breakdown and all she can do is cry. While Miranda is in tears I notice her and comfort her. And ten all her friends come back to comfort her and I join their friend group.

I think so far this has been a successful, high quality project. There have been some bumps in the road to creating our music video like, we had to many mediums and wides so we didn't have sequencing which is required. Also one of our team members was off island when our team first where supposed to meet up so we had to film with out him. Another problem or issue I had was that I wasn't really getting help with the band poster. But that problem was fixed by talking to my team.

Movie Trailer Premier

P3T5_A Mermaids Tale from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

We will be making 90-120 second not real movie trailer that interest your audience without giving away the ending. Along the the trailer we must have an original movie poster and provide the audience with the highest level of production value so people can't help but say I gotta watch that. Our teams story is about a little girl and her mother. Her mom was a mermaid so she left so the girl grew up not wanting to go in the water.When she conquers her fears and goes into the water and magically grows a tail. Scared, the girl runs to her dad and asks him to explain. She realizes that her mom was a mermaid the whole time. Then she runs to the water to begin her search.

I feel the hardest part of this project was deciding on an idea to make a movie trailer about. Beside this idea I had an idea that I really wanted to do. But the rest of the team liked our current idea. So I did my best to support the teams decision and I had to realize that it wasn't always going to get my way. But our team has been affective at communication, that help our project run smoothly.

We critiqued our movie trailers on Thursday April 6 of 2017 so yesterday. I feel the our critique went well. Our movie trailer was voted a couple of times for the best but was not voted enough to make it into the top three movie trailers. when making this project I learned how much work, time, and effort real movie trailer makers have to do. It was difficult but easy to arrange times that fit peoples prier plans so you have to be flexible and understanding to get this project to work. But overall it was fun to work with people I don't normally work with and it helped me get out of my usual habit of working with the same people.

Metamorphosis Animation


P3T6 Metamorphosis from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.



Our goal for our animation was to pitch our best animation idea, then complete a
collaborative production plan and storyboard before producing a in between one to two minute. While creating our animation we will be using diffrent types of animation. One of the animation is stop motion. Stop motion means to move something slightly, take a picture, repeat. Some examples of stop motion is claymation, whiteboard, flip book. We also animated in photoshop to animate two out of the five scenes.

For our animation project our focus statement is bunny attains wings. Our characters conceits of bunny, he is adventurous, motivational, and curious about flight. Hawk is persuasive, intending, helpful, and tells Bunny about flying. Then there's cat, she is demanding, insecure, and straight forward. Our plot or problem in the story is Cat doesn’t accept Bunny’s dreams of being able to fly therefore making Bunny give up on his dreams. Our message that we are trying to give through our story is to the purpose is to accept others dreams and to follow your dreams.

When we finished our animation we felt confident in our work and we happy that we finished and turned it in on time. I we that our critique went well. We where graded on four diffrent things, clarity of our message, characters and props, creativity and originality, and over grade for our animation. For our overall grade on our animation is a 3.2. The grade is based off of how each classmate felt the grade we deserved. We also got second best out of the class.
