Filming Blog for Music Video

 Que bola Mi gente! I hope your turkey day and week was as restful as mine. I was cooking up a storm. There was so much food. From turkey to ham all the way to sweet potato pie it was a delicious feast. Now with all this cooking I did not have  chance to film. I will be doing so this week. Now I might have to go with my back up plan as out of the blue it has become extremely cold. I do not think my brothers can go into a pool. It wouldn't be wise at least. However, my sets are ready to go from the pool to the room. It is all ready and my brothers are ready to dance their very best. It is going too be a great time. I have also noticed the longer the video the harder it is to edit and film. There are going to be tonnes of takes and re plays. It is all worth it in the very end. I hope you are not still eating turkey and if you are do something creative with it. My aunt did and it was really good. Maybe I should share the recipe sometime. Until next time stay healthy, warm and safe. Raymond Out.

  Some things to think about as you reflect: How did you choose the saying? How did you choose the format of the message? What did you learn? What could you do differently? Wow, it seems as if yesterday I started this project and now it has come to a close. I choose my song "La Vida es un Carnaval" because I thought the message was on time and I enjoy the music of Celia Cruz. Furthermore,  as I shared before, I felt it was an opportunity to give the world my culture. It is not very often that Afro- Latinos make the frontpage if it is not for baseball. Actually, most times me saying I am Cuban to most people seems like an anomaly. This music video for me served as a gentle reminder that it i not an anomaly. Outside of the personal message I wanted to send the next portion is the actual message of the song. La vida es un carnaval translates to life is a party.  The song talks about life's ups and downs but through it all life is really what you make it. I framed the

Starting the Final Task

 Hola! My name is Raymond Adderly and I am in 11th grade. I have decided to work alone. I have decided to work alone because the content of my film will come from a deep place of study. I want to highlight Afro-Latino achievement which might not be of interest to many people. This is because a lot of latinos within the white community can care less about afro latinos. Thus, this is why I am taking it upon myself to film a opening for this topic. I have said many times that it is not a monolith to be Afro- Latino and my film will do that in its opening. Also, since it is just me I believe my blogs will be pretty unique to this topic. Each blog will be meticulous in addressing not only the issues in the afro latino community but how I encounter them everyday. My blogs will also potentially  grow in length as I begin to address and talk about other issues outside of the instructional material. The  ultimate plan is to create this blog into a ranting platform. This is also going to be a ve

Genre Research : Thrillers 12

 Hola todos! I decided first to look up thrillers. Thrillers are great for family night and all around great movies. From research, I learned that not only are they usually involve a lot of excitement. They give people risk free thrills. The object of thriller is o invoke an emotion of chill and not understanding what is going to happen next. Common conventions include, dark lighting, ambient sounds, and all of this is used to create the feel. There is always both a protagonist and antagonist.  This is to complete the theme of good versus evil. It gives audiences someone to hate and someone to love. There also are the obligatory scenes that you  find in almost every single thriller film. Be it a crime scene investigation. It can also be in a grave yard. At the end of  the day the object of thriller is to excite the viewer. So the conventions must do that. I hope you had a fun time hearing about conventions. Please stay tuned as I do more research on other genres. Attached is Power Poin
