For our music video, my teammates and I will have three listed locations for filming. Our group mate’s house will be used to film calmer scenes of our video. The second location, Fort Lauderdale beach, will be used to film exciting, lively scenes. These will include our group dancing and even going inside of the water. Finally, we will be filming inside of our group mate’s car. In the car we will film lively scenes, as well. The scenes will feature our group dancing and listening to music, particularly this song. We will be filmed inside the car, however, there may be some moments filmed of the outside of the car.

Health and safety will always be number one on our priorities. We will be taking precautions to ensure our health and safety. This includes making sure we are all strong swimmers for the beach. Each of us have taken swimming lessons in the past and intend to use what we learned. We will also check the weather before arriving at the beach to make sure the weather is appropriate. If the weather is threatening, we will choose a different place to film. To protect us from strangers, rapists, kidnappers, etc. we will be carrying pepper spray with us. Our group mate’s legal guardian will also be joining us. 

Because we will be at the beach, we will be wearing beachwear such as sweatpants and sunglasses. We will be wearing sweatpants because, although we do live in Florida, it has been cold lately, and we are all anemic. Our props will include pretend cash, which we will be throwing around to demonstrate our wealth, despite the fact that we are not wealthy. We will lay blankets down on the beach for the video. We will also we be using our cell phones. In addition, in the house, we will use colored lights to create a “club” effect.
