What Worked

Overall, our music video turned out really well. The idea of showing a friendship falling apart through small, emotional moments worked exactly how we imagined. The cafeteria scene was especially effective; it showed the distance between the characters without needing a lot of dialogue. Our use of lighting and camerawork helped a lot too. The bright but dull tones made the main character's loneliness stand out, and the handheld shots in the flashbacks made those memories feel more real. Everyone in our group worked together well and shared ideas to make sure the story matched the mood of Billie Eilish's "TV."

What didn't Work and Challenges

One of the hardest parts was getting the timing right with the song. We had to refilm a few clips, so they matched the lyrics and emotional beats. Filming in the cafeteria was also trickier than we expected, there was background noise and students walking by, so we had to wait for quieter moments. We solved this by doing multiple takes and adjusting our angles, so the focus stayed on the main character. Editing also took longer than we planned, especially when syncing clips and adding transitions, but once we figured out the rhythm, it came together.

Lessons For Next Time

From this project, we learned that planning is everything. Having a clear storyboard and schedule would have helped us save time and stay organized. We also learned a lot about how small details, like lighting, background movement, and camera focus, can change the entire mood of a scene. For our next film project, we want to experiment more with camera angles and maybe add more movement or symbolism to make the story even stronger.

Behind the Scenes 

Even thought it was stressful at times, making this music video was really fun experience. We're proud of how it turned out and how we turned our ideas into something on real screen
