1. STORYBOARD COMMITTEE

The majority of our class agreed to use Deus ex machina ( "Latin: 'god from the machine' - a person or thing that appears or is introduced into a situation suddenly and unexpectedly and provides an artificial or contrived solution to an apparently insoluble difficulty).

  • Think About: What person or thing causes the superheroes to come out of their garbage bag costumes (issues) at the beginning of our music video?

2. SPECIAL EFFECTS COMMITTEE

The special effects and storyboard committee decided that the music video should have a comic book feel. We will be using a green screen and working on video post-processing. The special effects committee have been practicing and creating reversed videos. We will upload and show those videos on our next blog post. For now, check out this reversed video as an example: 

  • Think About: How can we incorporate dance and fight choreography in the reverse cam?

If you have any videos testing out your special effects, please share and email us at info@ps333.org and we will post it on our blog!


3. COSTUMES COMMITTEE

Thank you Grace for sharing your drawing! Her idea for this superhero outfit was inspired by Captain America's outfit.

ISSUES COSTUMES: The costumes committee came up with a great idea that is both creative and economical. We will wear black garbage bag costumes over our superhero costumes. On the front part of our garbage bag costumes are the issues written out in bold ink on paper. We will cut slits and use velcro for easy removal when we reveal our superhero selves. 

  • Think About & Create: Make MSC superhero costumes by using our MSC colors, blue and white.

If you have any drawings of your superhero costumes, please share and email us at info@ps333.org and we will post it on our blog!
