Planning

 Planning Since my group is shooting a rap music video, our props include anything from necklaces, watches and cash. Do to the nature of rap music videos, most props that are used in rap music videos are not appropriately usable. Some of the costumes that my group decided on is anything that looks high-fashion, or flashy clothing that helps to capture the audiences attention. In the music video will include all my group members and possibly several extras. My schedule for the music video is arranged as such, Research should be done by 11/15/2021. Planning for the music video should be done by 11/16/2021. Storyboard will be created by 11/19/2021. Shots and videos should be filmed from 11/20/2021 - 12/5/2021.

   Research My group and I are doing a Rap music video, in these music videos the Artist and their entourage can be seen wearing high-end clothing. As well as, Expensive jewelry, foreign exotic vehicles, models, dancing. This is all depends on the Mood/Theme of the song, this will determine the visuals of the song. However, in most cases these costumes and stylistic choices of the music video are intended  to show off the artist and their lifestyle to the audience. You can see many different activities being performed in the video, unfortunately as it comes with the culture of rap music- A lot of music videos show artist using drugs. Moreover, activities can include Adult clubs, Dangerous stunts in vehicles, and a general high end lifestyle on the notion that they are aloud to pull off these illegal activities due to their high wages. Costumes include any kind of clothing but usually high end clothing and accessories. You will also see quick camera pans, long shots, closeups, and usual

 Group For the media studies Commercial project, I am working with Fahim. I chose this partner because Fahim is a very hard worker. Therefore, I think we would make a very good team. I just recently met Fahim, but once I got to know him. I noticed we have a lot in common. Which is why he was my first pick, at first, I assumed I would work alone just because I like to organize projects by myself. I am controlling and specific when it comes to my work, I like professional and quality work. The reason I am so specific is because your work shows your character and represents yourself. so, when I was talking to Fahim and noticed that he likes his work a similar way, I realized we would make an all-star team. Fahim enjoys playing video games in his free time, so this by default automatically makes us compatible. He also enjoys computer science which is another bonus. I think working in a group helps build teamwork skills. This also makes big projects much easier to handle. We thought about a

 Hello, my name is Connor Murray. I am in the 10th grade, and I go to Fort Lauderdale high school. I was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and have lived here ever since. When I was a young kid, I loved and was obsessed with being a farmer. As my family, lived in the countryside, I grew up around Farms and Animals. I wanted to help the people in need and couldn’t stand people being hungry and not having anything to eat, inspired by family. Now that I have grown up a bit, I have done a full 360 still wanting to help people but in a different way. I now have interest in Computer science/cybersecurity. I have certifications in Cybersecurity and computer science and do freelance Pen testing for Private Firms and businesses. I have always been interested and curious about computers. I started by the casual tinkering and watched the occasional YouTube video.       I got to a very advanced level but longed to become professional and profit of my skills. So, about 4 years ago, I started to get
