Why a music video?

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.” ― Plato

Music is truly the language of the soul, and it allows people to speak volumes without really saying anything. Personally, music has helped me get through my daily tasks or emotional periods in my life or even just make me happy on a blue day. I have reached to a point where I have playlists for every emotion I feel just in order to elevate whatever I am feeling.

When our Media Studies teacher announced that we got to pick between a documentary, a short film and a music video, I was thrilled. I immediately knew that I needed to take a music video mostly because I love music so much and it plays such a huge role in my life. The other reason why I wanted to pick a music video was because it would allow me to explore my creativity since there is so much I can do with a song. It also kind of gave me the opportunity to pick my favourite songs and get a shot at changing the original music video to what I percieve of the song.

Music videos nowdays have become a expression of artistic creativity, be it with the music or just the way its shot. I want to be able to do that, and explore all that I can with my skills. Since, AS was quite the learning experience for me and my opening sequence was driven mostly by a soundtrack, I can finally get to do a music video with a song that I enjoy. I am excited to begin this journey and I hope you enjoy it with me.
