Introduction to Media Studies

        Hey friends, my name is Fatima Faya and I attend Fort Lauderdale High school, this year I am officially a Junior and will be turning 17 this October, finally! Unfortunately, I don't have my permit or license, yes, I know, it's sad. However, life has been pretty good so far. The first months of quarantine were kind of frustrating, I spent my days lounging around and craving social contact. These last few months were pretty good though, I got to wake up at whatever time and spent countless hours watching my favorite shows on Netflix and would occasionally do something productive. If we weren't in a life-threatening pandemic right now I would probably in a foreign country sipping virgin margaritas. No seriously, one of my favorite hobbies is traveling, it's so fun getting to explore other landscapes and cultures.        Traveling to Peru is my favorite, both my parents are from there and most of my family lives there as well. On average I'd ...

Filming Blog for my Music Video

   Complications when filming: Once my partner Suzie had arrived at my house we immediately began our work. I showed her the picnic basket I had found in my closet. Id had never been used and this was the perfect opportunity to take advantage of it. We did face quite a few challenges along the way. First of all, that picnic basket was not light. My partner and I had to walk all the way to the park holding it. Once getting there we took a minute to pick out a spot. Mainly because a part of it was closed and we didn't want to disturb the people around us. Now picking the perfect spot we set up the scene. I filmed the POV shot of Suzie, we took a couple because we couldn't keep a straight face. Also, I wanted to make sure we got a good angle. Unfortunately, both of us shot most of our scenes vertically and we didn't notice until we began editing. After our picnic scene, we filed one of us walking home. I was holding the picnic basket and Suzie filmed me in an attempt to make a...

Critical Reflection Questions

 1. How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?      Our music video challenges conventions because it takes on a different perspective from a classic pop music video. We mainly wanted to focus on the message of the song rather than the actual music video. The only convention that we did include in our video is that we wanted to express our happiness, which is very common to see in pop music videos. We dance around for a scene and did our makeup, all aspects that could be seen in today's music video. Seeing girls get ready to go out and pick out their outfits are common conventions. One example is Iggy Azalea's music video to Fancy, the entire music video was inspired by the classic rom-com Clueless. She began the video by picking out an outfit and getting ready for school, a common introduction to see in pop music videos by female artists.      Like we mentioned, the most important part of...
