In farmes of video production, as we are next year about to start off with our career in practice, we talked trough how to apply the already existing skills and to represent the personal competencies of someone in the most suitable, fitting and eye-catching way.
To win the attention of the person who skimms trough or just looks at the CVs is cruicial to be won and when it is done, it is also important to keep it wake, not bored and generate an extra, special interrest in our personality, which differs from the other candidate's.
As long as our CV matches the image of the company on the desired candidate, we should win the second step, the interview. Gestures, body positions play an extremely important role, as we have already discussed when making the second video, so that we communcate the same, true message of ourself. If all the things match, than we are the winners, hopefully;)

The Power of Lyrics, The next assignment on producing a music video
How to begin with the production of a real video clip?;)
First, we need to choose a song and analyse it, which seems to be a logical starting point for the purpose: a video with lipsinging and enjoyable content in consistency with the lyrics of the song.
The images, people, movements & motions should fit the rythm, rpm and other measurable sequences of the song which we may devie it into. By the way, human communication is based on non-verbal gestures, so in case of given words, the meaning could be interpreted in almost as many ways as we wish to, only up to us;)
Understanding of the song is also based on the culture, experiences and the perosnal connection to symbols of the beholder. If you switch symbols, different meanings can be attached or provoked in people to attach them to the topic, according to their personal attitudes.
As an exmaple to symbolism and the hidden meaning in songs I would refer to the song called American Woman, reflecting on the symbolical relationship of a male/female in a figurative meaning according to the American/Canadian relationship.

Next Music Video
After having seen our film and got a review from class we are again about to do an other music video. This video will feature various elements, that I could draw a similar line between the previous semester's video, when we had to make a 'talkie'. This time, we obviously are not obliged to sing, at least my best intentions tell me not to;) But to lipsing for a given piece of music. This is quite a though thing, becuse the variety of songs is limited to four and the tastes within the class just reach to extremes. I personally don't consider myself to listen to extreme sort of music, but the creation of such a music video with singing and acting as if we were the perofrmers of the video seems to be a challanging thing to me;)
