For this project you will first need to select a song as the inspiration for your music video. The song should be between 2 to 4 minutes, and should be school appropriate. No songs with foul language, overt references to sex, drugs, alcohol, gangs, or violence.
You will then need to shoot a minimum of 30 digital images relating to the lyrics of your song. The pictures can either relate directly to the lyrics of the song or they can simply be inspired by the mood or feeling of the song. These need to be new images inspired by your song. This is a final, so specific element of previous assignments need to incorporated into the photos for your video. You need to choose at least 10 of the following techniques that we learned in class this semester.
