Week 1

This week we started to do our research for our music video's genre, each member is researching 6 different R&B music videos, this allows us to visualize the genre conventions of R&B music videos so we can have an idea of how we are going to create our music video. We also did our preliminary research, where we researched about different music video genres. This week we also learned about media ecology and what how to apply this into real world examples which will be useful for our exams.

Problem: it was pretty difficult to find R&B music videos that are appropriate for the school, it was also difficult to find potential songs for our music videos, because better R&B songs are over the past 5 years 

solution: we continued to research more and more music videos and songs that are appropriate to use and are within the past 5 years. after some time researching we did have some options for our final song

to do: i plan to finish my research by the end of this week and finalize a song by next week.

Week 2 

This week we continued our genre research, i watched and analyze different R&B music videos. my group also found a few options of songs to use for our final song. 

Problems: I originally aimed to finish 6 researches by the end of this week, but I kept delaying and procrastinating on finishing my research

Solutions: Ill try to do one research a day

to do: i need to analyze two more R&B music videos
