For Multimedia class we had a final project that involved making a music video for a band. Luckily, Philip Pledger, with the band Estrangers, agreed to let us use the band's song, White Flowers for our video. Many thanks to the band for being willing to participate in this project---we couldn't have done it without you!
The wonderful team I worked with included two fellow photojournalism students, Anna Eyler and Alyssa Murkin. Along with the help of two incredibly lovely people as the female and male characters in the video, Carleigh Morgan and Dillon Deaton, the video came together quite nicely. Anna, Alyssa and I spent hours storyboarding and working out every scene while listening to a great song that is now permanently burned into our memories. With everyone working so well together, as well as late hours, plus having locations that fit the scenes so well, we were able to maintain a lot of the original vision we had for the video.
I could not have asked for a better team with Anna and Alyssa. Their creativity and determination to not only work hard, but also make something that we could all be proud of, was truly inspiring. You ladies are the best!
A special 'thank you' to Krankies Coffee for letting us invade your space after hours!
This is late (I don't have a fancy phone), but I was busy making a music video (no really, I was). Most of the time I give Jay's assignment's priority, but today, Mr. Rash was first. This may not be 'feature quality', but it's a photo I took today (Monday) and besides, there's always tomorrow!
Side Note: Many, many enormous THANK YOU's to the members of the band Estrangers (without whom this video would even be possible), Carleigh Morgan (for seductively walking barefoot through various terrains), Dillon Deaton (for driving all the way to Winston from Asheboro to look expertly confused), Nathan (for letting us invade the space you were trying to close), the folks at Krankies (for letting us invade your space, period), and my fellow "A Team", Anna & Alyssa (you two are Awesome!). Today was a very, very good day!
