TruGemini Posted March 13, 2022 Author Posted March 13, 2022 You all had three days to collaborate, how'd you do? Team 1 Presents... @DevonRoars@Not Like The Movies@Thanatos MOBILE: https://i.imgur.com/Ge8I0C9.png Me, Myself, and I - Beyoncé: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4S37SGxZSMc 7 rings - Ariana Grande: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYh6mYIJG2Y Licorice - Azealia Banks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSdmqVER0tY *** Team 2 Presents... @wehavetostan @Luckitty @Opulent For our group, we wanted to showcase the legacy of female sexuality as depicted in music videos. March is Women’s History Month, and we wanted to use this round to highlight how the expression of female sexuality has evolved over time. We chose Mariah Carey to represent the past. In her 1998 music video for “My All”, Mariah sets the stage by first appearing on an overturned vessel on a beach. She begins to sing about an estranged lover, and is unaccompanied for the majority of the video. She and her lover share a brief, intimate moment. The video is sensual, however, it is quite tame in comparison to what many female artists do in their music videos today. What made us consider this the past is the fact that it was filmed in black and white, and the video's more subtle depiction of sexuality. For our representation of the present, we chose Bebe Rexha. In the 2018 music video for her song "Say My Name", Bebe stuns in very revealing neon outfits. Although she is one of the three artists in this song and music video, she is the only female artist in the song and she commands the attention of the viewer. The video does a great job at juxtaposing Bebe's outfits with those of her male counterparts (David Guetta & J Balvin). The male collaborators on "Say My Name" wear much more clothes than Bebe, and they sit down in chairs while Bebe performs dance moves that require a lot of energy. In today's society, female artists are expected to be a lot more sexual and provocative than male artists, and this music video is a great example of that. Finally, we chose Cardi B to represent the future. In the music video for her 2021 #1 hit single "Up", Cardi comes in hot. She serves multiple futuristic-looking outfits, including a custom transparent plastic aquatic piece and a mermaid-like bodysuit that has a baroque porcelain-finish corset. Cardi displays her bisexuality in "Up" when she makes out with two different women. What made us choose this music video to represent the future is Cardi's strong display of sexuality. She makes it clear within the lyrics that she knows what she wants (such as the line "broke boys don't deserve no p***y (I know that's right"), and she solidifies that with this showstopping music video. *** Team 3 Presents... @kipperskipper @CBC @touya kinomoto Our group decided to portray the evolution and legacy of Horror. Madonna- Past: Dark Ballet Dark ballet is an interpretation of Joan of Arc. A woman is imprisoned and sentenced to be burned at the stake. But through her desperation she imagines herself free dancing while begging for freedom. Ultimately it is all in vain. This video symbolizes the horrors black, queer, and other minorities had to face in the past centuries. Lana- Present: Chemtrails over the Country Club Modern day horror has evolved into the terrors of monsters, ghosts, demons, and anything supernatural as the star of the movie. The video for Chemtrails Over The Country Club stars Lana and her rich wealthy friends. They live joyously and luxuriously at their country club, but not everything is as it seems. When night falls, Lana and her fellow girlfriends turn into rampant werewolves! In the end Lana is seen washing off blood in the shower and the girls crawl into bed with their lovers, hungry for a snack! Katy Perry-Future; 365 365 is a Black Mirror-esque video about testing artificial intelligence's capability to feel human emotions especially love. Katy portrays an android being tested for emotions opposite her collaborator on the song, Zedd. The features possible future innovations with a storyline that is compelling and camp nature too that are highlights of Katy's videography. The future of horror may be the future itself! *** @Speezy @dweebz @Yvess
dweebz Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 Team 1: WERKKKKKKKKKKK! I love this because it actually makes sense. I can see a clear line of influence between the past, the present, and the future. Now this is genius. Team 2: Mariah, yes. Bebe and Cardi are kind of the same. I dont see anything that really puts them in separate lanes. I really love the song choices... minus Bebe. But apart from that, I dont get it. Team 3: The most creative team! Katy is the clear standout because she is the future black-mirror thing, but Madonna and Lana could be the same time period. Great job you all.
Thanatos Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 This was very hard So many good entries, the horror theme is a great choice!! Thanks dweebz
Yvess Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 Yvess Critiques: LEGACY Team 1: @DevonRoars@Not Like The Movies@Thanatos I love how the theme you picked worked on your team so well. I agree with all of the points you raised. The everchanging music trends is tricky but you guys made it work so well. Me Myself and I is so underrated! 7 Rings is definitely the NOW trend alongside Pop Rock/Punk resurgence. And I want to believe that the future is bright for Acid House! A very strong and cohesive entry! Team 2: @wehavetostan @Luckitty @Opulent Cute effort. The theme is promising but I feel like this could have been properly executed well. Mimi definitely is the biggest legacy act in your group so that's great points already for putting her in the past section. Not so sure about Cardi and Bebe if I love it or hate it. Happy International Women's Month! Team 3: @kipperskipper @CBC @touya kinomoto SLAAAAAAAYYYYY! I actually thought your group will suck but I am so happy to be proven wrong! I love love love horror genre so having this as your theme made me so happy. The representations are wicked! I can't get enough of it. The three of you ate and left no crumbs! @TruGemini
