One of the most iconic pop music videos of all time, Beyoncé's "Single Ladies," directed by Jake Nava, showcases masterful use of angles and shots. The video's simplistic, yet captivating, visual style relies heavily on wide-angle shots to emphasize the dancers' synchronized moves. The frequent use of close-ups on Beyoncé's face adds an intimate connection with the audience. The low-angle shots accentuate the power and confidence of the dancers, making viewers feel like they are part of the dance. Another music video a timeless classic, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" directed by John Landis, is renowned for its groundbreaking use of cinematography. The video is essentially a short film, and its horror theme demands a range of angles and shots to create suspense.

Hi guys it's me again. Today I am going to be planning my music video. In today's digital age, music videos have become an integral part of the music industry.

 What's up Cambridge today I am going to be introducing my group members. I am planning to work with my friend and classmate Anton. Unfortunately, he was in a car accident. Where he had to go to the hospital. But he ok and unharmed. I have been in contact with him. However, I have not been able to discuss this project with him. I chose to work with him because of his work ethic and his photography skills. He is also a very good person who I have worked with in the past. The song I've come to do is Lazy Song by Bruno Mars. I came to pick this song because of its upbeat tone. I also picked this song because of my familiarity with it. This song reveals that you just need to relax.

It is a good way to connect with your friends outside of school and in a fun environment. Recently I've started to go boating with friends out in the ocean and inland. Last Saturday I went with 2 friends on a 44-foot boat to go deep-sea fishing. We ended up catching 12 fish between the 3 of us.

Since then I've lost over 40lbs due to consistently going to the gym and implementing a new diet. It has helped me so much with my physical and mental help because it has drawn me closer to a lot of people. I am also a very

Reflection About Me

 This project has given me the opportunity to express myself and learn new things. Like being able to upload videos on YouTube and edit videos on iMovie. I also learned how to edit pictures together using transitions and putting music in the background. I think on the next project I should give myself more time to complete each step separately instead of doing them all at once. I just wanted to say I really enjoyed making this commercial and can't wait to do more projects in the future.
