Music Video: Edit 11

DISCLAIMER:

I was not part of the creation of this music video, even though I would have loved to be. I had no availability during this time to help her edit this music video. I have made no contribution to this edit. 

This is the FINAL Music Video. When I was first sent this music video many concerns arose as I felt like many of my concerns had not been addressed. There were certain aspects of the video that I communicated many times through the blog posts and to my partner. Truthfully, most of my concerns were not voiced at an appropriate time, as I was not aware of the editing sessions and how they were progressing. I also didn’t make enough of an effort to find out when they were and what was happening. I believe the editing process would have been a lot smoother if we had done it together instead of playing catch up with each other.

This gives us the feeling that he is in a place he feels comfortable with, a place he is familiar with, with people he may now. We see different people from...

Despacito - Luis Fonsi ft. Daddy Yankee – The video begins with a beautiful view, setting the scene with an acoustic sounding version of the song subtly playing in the background. It’s a beautiful beach in Puerto Rico, the hometown of the lead musician. A child is shown running into a chicken coop and trying to catch a chicken. After this we get the first glimpse of the women that seems to be the topic of the song, walking down the pathway. The scene is shortcut off to show a long-shot view of the favela type houses stacked on top of each other in front of the beach we had seen previously. This once again helps with reinforcing the set of the scene. The inspiration behind this video I believe is Latin America meets Spanish music and influence. This theme is well developed throughout the video as salsa, a Spanish dance is incorporated into the video along with the style of the music and the Latin American landscape. After this , the music gets louder and louder and we are...
