Lyrical Livelihood

Our final project for Mr. Sanderls G.T. class, is to produce a music video. I am saddened at the thought that this is going to be my last G.T. project, here at Kapa'a Middle School. But, anyways when I think about music and a song with special/meaningful lyrics I become overwhelmed with joy. Although most songs I listen to make me laugh, dance, and smile, some of my favorite songs make me a little sad due to it's very meanigful words.

After contemplating for some time, my teammates (Brooke, Lilio, Noa) and I, decided to incorporate two songs in our music video. We first start off with a song called, "Watch Me," by Silento which is a fun and catchy song. Then once the audience is in the groove, we plan on putting a sound effect of a scratched record and the next song, "Girls Just Want To Have Fun," by Cyndi Lauper, will begin to play. We chose this song because it is super catchy, we could make a story out of the meaningful lyrics, and hey, it's true... girls just want to have fun! Pretty much all great music videos have a story to it and it's very important that the story is also entertaining to the audience. Now having our song chosen, it was time for us to come up with that entertainging story.



Above is a portion of our music video production plan 

My teamates and I decided that since our team is made up of three girls and one boy, we should show us girls having fun in different places and have Noa try to come in and have fun with us... but we won't let that happen! For example, Brooke, Lilio, and I will be dancing and Noa tries to come in and do the same, but all of us will push him away. Another example is, in the beginning we will show Noa dancing to his jam, "Watch Me," when all of a sudden the music changes and it goes to our song's audio and shows us girls. So throughout the song we will be displaying things such as the first example.
