How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent 
social groups or issues? -

Our projects conventions is the genre. Our genre convention was country. How we used that
Genre in our music video is by having the characters for it. We had country girl characters to
Represent the country genre which is how we used conventions. How are convention represents
social Groups is because it given them a chance to become friends with others doing the 
same genre. It gives them a feeling of comfort in knowing others are having struggles you have.

How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real
media text-
Our music video engages with the audiences because the audience is teenagers and so are we.
We use teen situations in our music video. Such as the lesbian lovers, the golfcart, and the way
The girl handled the situation. By the way the girls stomped out of the golfcart and couldn't 
make up their minds about each other, its like a real teen relationship. For that, our video engages
with our audience. This would be distributed as a real media text because it gives a good 
representation of what's-happening in the song.

How did your production skills develop through this project-
My production skill developed through this project by learning new shots. I didn't-know what a
pan or tilt was until we were required to use it in our music video. I wasn't sure how to even
shoot a pan or tilt until someone taught me. I would say that's a step up from before of not knowing
anything at all. I also learned how to edit like like onara does. Obviously not as well as her but,
well enough to the point where she needed help i would be able to help her. It was a good
Experience and something i will need to take with me for future productions.

how did you integrate technologies-software, hardware and online-in this project
How we integrated technology into our project is by editing. We used online resources to give
our video music and transitions. Without the music it wouldn't-even be a music video. How we
Included that online is by using an app called cap-cut. Once we added the sound to the video
we had to cut it to match the scenes. once that was done for every scene we used a transition to
Switch them. This was also done simply on our technological devices, such as our phone.
This online device helped us integrate technology in our project.

My perspective of the editing

Image
 As we know from last project and this one, onara is the editor and camera woman while i’m the actor and idea person. With our final task coming up we have both realized that i’m going to need to learn editing. This is because the video will be longer than anyone we’ve ever done, which will make it trickier for onara to edit. Longer clips to edit, longer clips to film, transition etc. So i decided that i would be with onara while she edits this time. This is so in the future i know how to help her and i can learn by watching her. What we did is for the first part of editing which was cutting the scenes. Basically just cutting the scenes to be shorter so we didn’t take as much time in the video. This was easily done on the iPhone just by clicking edit on the camera app. Then she started putting the clips together. She put the clips together with an app called cap cut. I downloaded it myself so i can work on editing videos together in my camera roll. After that she added the sound to...

  I chose onara to work with for many reasons. The first reason is i see her almost everyday afterschool for volleyball. So i would be able to shoot with her after volleyball or before outside of school. Secondly, Our parents are friends. They trust that we will be both safe in either of there hands. If i had a partner whos family i didn't know, my parents wouldn't be to comfortable leaving me in their care. Another reason why i chose her is because she's good at finding the needed and correct research. If we need to find something ASAP she is able to quickly find it. She also is a good value to the project because she knows how to shoot. What i mean is she knows how to recognize angles and shoot them clearly. What i can bring to the table is resources. We have already thought about our commercial and what we were thinking i can provide the resources we need for it. Such as the props needed and the transport needed to go where we need for shooting. I also am an idea creator...
