Props

Since our music video consists of mostly going around and most likely including just a group of friends, our music video will most likely not include any props. However, if it does include any props, it would most likely be some sort of entertainment device or props that relate to extracurricular activities.
Costumes
The music video is suppose to be a casual, everyday situation and a normal day, so the costumes will consist of casual wear, or what would be typical of the clothing wore on a typical day, such as jeans and a hoodie, or sweatpants and short sleeve shirt. The purpose is to portray a sort of teenage group, most likely relating to adolescents and younger people currently.

Schedule
By November 14th, 2022, our group will research about the R&B music genre.
By November 16th, 2022, our group will confirm and set in stone what costumes, props, location lists, back-up plans, and any other necessary pre-recording information.
By November 17, 2022, our group will create and finalize a storyboard for the music video.
By November 28, 2022, we will begin to record the music video.
By December 16, 2022, the music video will be edited and finalized to be submitted.

Location List
The music video aims to create a sort of special bond between two people within a friend group, so the location list will consist of several, teenager activities, such as an arcade, or a park, possibly even a carnival. The goal is to recreate an everyday experience, not some extraordinary situation.

Backup Plan
If, for any reason, our group is unable to make it to the location, then we will improvise with the people that are able to make it to the place. Additionally, if we are unable to get a bigger friend group to act as sort of background characters, then we will continue with the music video recording, no matter the circumstances. If the weather doesn’t hold up, then the location will most likely be moved to INDOOR activities.

 The action genre is one where the main character is thrown through a series of obstacles such as physical feats, combats, and chases. Its subgenres include adventure and disaster among others. Common Camera Angles, Movements, and Shots: During emotional scenes, Extreme close-ups shots eye levels angles are common to show internal turmoil High angles and low angles are especially used to establish that clear good guy / bad guy convention that is common in action films. Extreme long shots will be used to establish the scenes and locations. Tracking, especially using a dolly, is common to follow fight scenes to create intensity in the movement. Common Mis-En-Sen:Often set in disheveled or clinically perfect settings; at one extreme or the otherThe lighting dims depending on emotion; darker if a negative emotion.Props :accurate to the time period and location, but often include weaponry such as guns, swords, etc. Actors and characters are often dirty or spotless, portraying a serious tone

 For this group project, I will be working with the team I have been working with since the beginning of the year. We are all in the  same grade and have been friends since last year. I am working with George, Julianna, and Jean. I choose to work with this team again because they have good work ethnics. They are all very hard working people and I am glad to be working with them for this project. I am extremely excited to be able to share this experience with them. They all have their own unique traits, they’re motivated to do the best they can and complete work as fast as they can. They  are good at problem solvers and get along well with each other. I’ve known all of them for about a year or so. We are working together but are in different classes. Jean and I take media 2nd period and George and Juliana are in 5th period. This hasn’t been much of an obstacle at all though, except sometimes for communication. We always get our work done on time though.There has been a few times however

 For our music video, my group decided to do a song called “Just The Two of Us” by Grover Washington Jr. and Bill Withers. As this song falls under the R&B genre, the targeted audience, at least in the modern age, is African-Americans (due to the history of R&B with that community), as well as the younger people of the world, mostly adolescents to young adults. - R&B music videos typically attempt to catch the audience sense of attraction. - Older R&B music videos showed men as sophisticated and charming, wearing suits, which attracted to the female audience. - Modern R&B music videos show men as attractive and strong. Most men in modern R&B are tattooed and shirtless, attracting most younger women and showing themselves as strong and wealthy. - The artists in modern R&B also have outfits which include, but aren’t limited to: no shirt, or some plain shirt, a strapped back hat, and some sort of dark pants. This gives the look of a stereotypical “person of col
