Reflection
Doing this project was fun because it was my first time actually filming videos that require cinematic approaches that are used by successful film makers. It was a bit hard to keep up with the deadline because it was hard to pick the right shot and we had to re –shoot some stuff a couple times because we would always mess it up by laughing. My favorite shot is the panning shot because it was so clear and it looked cool. It was easy to come up with ideas on how to shoot the scenes because my partner and I always thought of the same thing and we would agree right away. The only thing that I would change was the tripod because we would always spend a lot of time on setting up the camera on the tripod.
I have chosen to do the Mean Girls trailer because this movie has influenced how teens today think. This movie was a box office success, grossing over $129. The also recieved positive reviews and has developed a "cult following". This trailer includes animal noises, guitar, and mostly narration from a girl. I like this trailer because its really funny from start to finish and it would be nice to imagine them saying something different if it was dubbed.

Songs by:
Little Mix- Word Up

I like this mashup because the words blend in really well will the audio and you would think that's the original song if you havent heard bothe songs separately.
Proposal
I am planning to do a Taylor Swift mashup because she usually has the same sound and it looks likes it will sound good if I mash up her songs. Since I am doing a mash up of audio files, I might just use the green screen as the video part of my project. The songs I am going to use are:
-Back To December
-Ours
-You Belong With Me
-Red
-Mean
-Mine
-Love Story
-Fifteen
-Everything Has Changed
-Enchanted
-Eyes Open
-22
-I Knew You Were Trouble
