Another Blog About Me


 Hey it’s me again, Lola Mackie! I finally finished my first project and it’s time to start another. I had a lot of fun filming the commercial so I can’t even imagine how much fun doing a music video will be. I have already learned so much about filming and editing but I am no where near perfect yet. Editing is still my weakest point when it comes to the final product but I’m working on it and I’m excited to continue doing so. I already know that I am going to enjoy working with my group in creating a fun music video to one of our favorite songs. Ok, enough about how excited I am now, about my life. First, one of my favorite things to do is play soccer. I play travel and varsity high school soccer. My favorite position to play is the right wing or forward. I play soccer at least 5 days a week and one day I am hoping to play college level soccer on a scholarship. In my free time the best thing to do is hang out with my friends. We love to go to the beach and binge watch movies. When I am not playing soccer, hanging out with my friends or doing school I am working. I work as a hostess at a restaurant on the beach. I work 2-3 days a week so hopefully I can make enough money to buy a car. As of right now I have no clue what I want to do when I’m older. My current plan is to go into college to get a degree in business and start something of my own however, this plan is likely to change though. While I don’t think I’ll make a career out of it I am very interested in the medical field and sociology. I also really enjoy to travel. This is partially why I want to get a masters in business so I can one day travel. My dream places to travel to are Hawaii and Italy . I would give anything to be able to visit these places one day. One other thing that comes with knowing me is knowing my family too. My house is always packed with animals and people and there is never a peaceful moment. As much chaos as they bring I wouldn’t trade it for the world and they have made me the person I am today. So that’s enough of talking about myself for the rest of my life so peace out!

Creative Critical Reflection

My product challenged many conventions that are found in Christmas music videos. First , most Christmas music videos use snow or are filmed in a snowy area. As I filmed my video in Florida, there was no snow to incorporate in the video . Instead of snow I went a different route and filmed in front of decorated palm trees and showed my true Floridian Christmas spirit. Another way my product challenged the conventions was most Christmas music videos include back up dancers and all out costumes. My music video was completely the opposite of this as everyone was dressed festive but simpl e . T here were a lso only a few actors that told a story instead of having the commotion of dancing in the back. As my product challenged conventions it also used some as well. For example, many Christmas videos include bright lighting and festive accessories . I wore a Santa hat and a festive shirt and filmed the entire video around lit trees and decorated homes. Even though there were not as ...

Filmed The Opening Scene

Image
  Hey, it’s me again back at it. Finally, my group and I were able to start filming our short film. Due to our recent delay in filming due to weather we rescheduled filming to today. I had everyone meet at my house at 3:30 with all of the props we would need for the first few scenes. One everyone got to my house I drove everyone to the empty street in my neighborhood where we could film the opening car scene. I was directing and filming this scene as my group mate Jack drove the car. The first scene was slightly difficult to film for me. I had to film a panning shot of the car and it was hard to time my filming with my group mates driving. Instead I suggested we show a wide shot of the car to show he is driving. Then I thought we should have our group mate sitting inside the car with a POV shot of what he’s seeing while driving. This plan was much easier to film and it in the end looked much better. It didn’t take long to film the rest of the first few scenes. This is because most ...

Finally the group got together!

Image
  Hey, it’s me again back at it. My group and I were finally able to meet up and talk out some of the details of our project. The first thing I proposed we talked about was the props situation. I decided that I would buy fake blood and cob webs. I already have fake blood from Halloween at my house so, it was perfect. I also am going to get some old looking sheets to put over places in the setting to make it look a bit more haunted. We officially confirmed that our filming spot would be at my house unless something comes up. My house in under construction so it gives a sort of run down feel. There are also many open lots and construction going on near by. I will have to make sure that there is no debris and we are all safe before we film but I think the spot should be perfect. We have not fully decided on a date that we can all meet up. All of us are about to go on break so are schedules are packed. I am either working or out of town the whole break. The rest of my group mates are a...
