Overview

Music videos contain lots of people singing and looking cool.  You too will sing and look cool. Actually, you won’t really sing.  You will pretend to sing. You will lipsync instead!

Lip syncing is hard but is a super important part of any music video.  Later you will shoot cutaway video to support the lipsync, but don’t worry about that now.

Steps to Success

  1. Find a song and get your teacher’s permission. No explicit lyrics please.
  2. Find the lyrics for the song
    1. Copy and paste it into a Google Doc
      1. Share with your group.
  3. Decide on a 90-second section of the song
    1. Look at the lyrics for help. Maybe just pick the first 90 seconds.
  4. Pick the singer(s) from your group to be filmed.  He or she MUST memorize the words or it will look really bad.
  5. Shoot your video
    1. Play the music in the background for your singer to sing along to
    2. Make sure a location change happens with each verse
  6. Sync up the music with your voice.  See here for help
  7. Export it
  8. Name the movie as follows:  Your First name, Last Name, Assignment Name
  9. Upload the video to Google Classroom
