Take one of the following Music videos made by former students and copy 20 seconds of their film. Act it out and record it. Put it together too. I don't care about the background, as long as no one is in your background. I am mainly concerned about your cuts and short clips and where your camera is located. NO USING BIG CAMERAS, just the small ones or phones. This is just a practice exercise.
PART 2 - Next I want you to decide what kind of music video you want to do. And answer the following questions. Jot them down on a piece of paper and I will collect them tomorrow incase you don't have time to finish this today. Watch the following music videos too, these are good examples of what has been done in the past.

MUSIC VIDEO EXAMPLES:
This video is amazing. She self filmed this whole thing. The meaning behind it is great too. It is a personal reflection on her brother dying. You can really see the turn around on how she is sad and then happy. He was suffering from a severe mental illness that took his rational mind.
Love this video. It really is a personal video about a senior who doesn't know which way to go from here and time is not on his side right now.
This video is a very fun one. Short yet sweet. Tells a story about a boy trying to get a girl. Very creatively done.
Great camera work and editing here. REally tells a story about this person.
