Statement of intent feedback and redraft

Statement of intent  feedback and redraft For my music video, I have chosen the song Hall of Fame by Stray Kids. I intentionally selected this track because it represents the idea of breaking free from the shell that one is trapped in. Both the music and the lyrics convey a powerful message about discovering your true potential and rising above limitations whilst at the same time the protagonist is experiencing going to and doing different things to find where they most belong. The song’s high energy, intensity, and motivational lyrics inspired me to use it as the foundation for a story about personal growth, confidence, and self-empowerment. My main goal for this music video is to inspire and motivate people to push beyond fear and judgment, encouraging them to embrace who they really are. I believe that this music video will give them the push they need to additionally understand that they don't have to have all of the answers or figure out what they want or have to do now. This ...

Coursework: Statement of Intent

Coursework: Statement of Intent For my music video, I have chosen the song Hall of Fame by Stray Kids.

My main goal for this music video is to inspire and motivate people to push beyond fear and judgment, encouraging them to embrace who they really are. I want it to give people the same sense of strength and freedom that the song expresses, showing that, just like in Hall of Fame, anyone can overcome obstacles when they believe in themselves. To visually communicate this message, I will use a variety of camera angles. A Dutch angle will be used to represent the protagonist’s emo...
