Music video: The next episode


Our initial idea for music videos was rap music because our group was all male and we also had a better understanding of rap music compared to other types of songs. So we initially chose the next episode as our music video. Because we thought the entire shooting was too simplistic in the early stage, after our planning and ideas. We think this song is too traditional, and there are no better ideas about the camera and filming. Another thing is that most of the filming venues are in bars or nightclubs, and we don't have the courage to hold up cameras and shoot our music videos in nightclubs. So we think changing to a more realistic rap music


This are the research and notes I did for “The next episode”

Music video: I’m yours


Our other chosen song is "I am your", which is actually a perfect rap music and we can also find a great shooting environment. Because Covid 19 was very serious at the time, all of us stayed at home because this song required some travel shots such as the sea, mountains, or forests. Because we all stayed at home and were quarantined, I am yours didn't make it either


Here is the notes I wrote and the background I searched

Background: A man take a world trip travel to somewhere else, positive wide and attitude, fun mood and atmosphere, we want to create the positive music video and give positive effect to the audience.
