Planning Blog

When it comes to shooting my music video, there are many thing that I need to plan for. The first and most important thing I need to plan for is my song. As stated in previous blogs, I will be using the song 'Centerfield' by John Fogerty.  As mentioned in my Research Blog, the song is under the genre 'American rock and roll', and is baseball themed. Being that the song is baseball themed, brings up the next very important thing to plan for, location. The location I will be filming at is the baseball field at Holiday Park. I will be filming here because it is close to my house and perfect for the scenes I have planed for my video. Also the fields at Holiday Park are my stomping grounds because it is where I used to play baseball. That brings me to my next important thing to plan, schedule. The schedule I will be following is go to the field from four to five PM, two days in a row. I am going to sticking to these times because it is right before baseball practices/games s...

  When it comes to researching for my music video, I looked up many other music videos on the same genre of music. Then, I will pick out conventions in those music videos that I think I should include in mine. The song I choose for the music video is 'Centerfield' by John Fogerty. The genre of music my song would be considered under is 'American rock and roll.' So, I looked up music videos under that genre. The first music video that I observed was 'American Rock 'n Roll' by Kid Rock. I choose this music video because it is full of scenes that include many conventions. A very noticeable convention and one that I will most likely include in my music video is the use of birds eye view and the fade in of the beginning of the song in the first scene. Another noticeable convention is the use of eye level shots that track the band members in the beginning scenes of the music video. I will most likely use that in my video too. A third and final noticeable conventio...

When it came to choosing class mates to work with on the music video, I didn't. Instead, I chose to work alone. I choose to work alone for many reasons. First, I didn't know who I should work with because I don't know many people in this class. Also, the people that I do know were already working with other people. Second, I choose to work alone because I don't know if I could rely on other people in my class to do there part in the project. I don't know if I could rely on them to show up for filming or video and if they would do all there blogs and on time. The third and final reason I chose to work alone is because I like taking time on the quality of my work and didn't want to feel rushed by a group. Even though I am not working with a group of students from school, I am going to have some help form some of my friends and maybe my parents. My friends and maybe parents will help film and cast in the music video. Next and most important, the song I will be choo...

Hi, my name is Dylan Tanner. My birthday is October 29, 2007. At home I live with my Mom, Dad, younger sister, younger brother, and my dog Finn. We got Finn during the online school era of the pandemic. Me and my Mom (mostly me) would be home to take care and train Finn, while my younger siblings were at school, and my Dad was at work. I love hanging out with my family. We love watching movie's together, riding our bikes, going on vacation, and boating. I love activities that involve the water; like fishing, boating/jet skiing, and snorkeling. Other activities I also enjoy are tennis, ping pong, pool (the game), biking, and video games. I am really excited to turn 16 and get my drivers license, and my car. My friends and I are all really into cars and we like to go to car meets and take pictures. I am also have a very good sense of knowledge about almost everything boat related. When it comes to school, I am very good at math, science, and robotics. I am a very good writer when I f...
