Our rock music video employs various conventions to convey their messages and represent different social groups. Through energetic performances, rebellious aesthetics, and edgy visuals, rock music videos capture the essence of the genre while appealing to fans and attracting new audiences. These videos often showcase the musicians as a distinct social group, embodying a rebellious spirit and countercultural identity. We tried our best to use these conventions in our video. We tried to dress more edgy than we usually did, wearing old band shirts. We made silly faces directly into the camera, almost mocking the audience. This was meant to show slightly rebellious spirits, similar to the conventions of most nineties rock music videos. We added quick cutaways into the video to different smaller...
What conventions of psychological thrillers does this movie have? This movie has lots of close ups and zooms into the main characters face.

I felt very supported with this group and was very excited to meet with them again. We are in the same block for this class and sit next to each other. I would happily work with these people again; however, we have one extra person. Amelie is a long-time friend of both mine and Sammie. She did not know anyone else in the class so we wanted to invite her to sit with us. She gets along with us already, so we figure that her joining will be no problem. We all worked really well together for the music video, so we just figured that we can just keep it the same. Sammie ended up being a pro-editor! Amelie was great at giving us ideas for shots and camera angles. Isaac was such a team-player and h...
