One More Chapter
A twenty two year-old's view on life, death,
and Taylor Swift conspiracy theories
and Taylor Swift conspiracy theories
So many people have been asking me what I have been working on and filming and I'm here to explain it all once and for all so that when someone else asks I can simply reply "oh, just check out my blog - it will explain everything!" So here's the deal, I have this car - or rather, i had this car. It was a burgundy colored 2001 Hyundai Elantra and it was my first standard car. Recently, though, things have been going south with it. First, over the summer, third gear stopped working. It would literally just buck the stick shift out of third gear and make this horrible noise. So I just stopped using third gear (we brought it to the mechanic but it was a fix that would have costs us hundreds and hundreds of dollars. something about a belt, I don't know..) Things were going great....until they weren't. Things started going wrong left and right. The other gears began to give me trouble, a strange noise began to form as I drove, we had to pull the wires out of the door lights because they never turned off, I often couldn't shift into reverse, the driver's side door couldn't open from the inside and even more. It was a death trap. Then it got worse. For some reason, every single gear, except fourth (thank god for my precious fourth gear), made an extremely loud - like ear piercingly loud - screeching sound. It sounded almost like my car was spinning out on ice...all the time. It was the most embarrassing thing I've ever experienced. People turned and stared, gave me horrible looks and one time i attracted the attention of a cop in a parking lot. My car had truly given up on me, and I on her. So to commemorate this failed relationship I have begun my latest project. It is a music video for the song "Say Something" by A Great Big World ft. Christina Aguilera. But instead of me being sad because of a relationship with a man, it's my relationship with my car. Make sense yet? My goal is to be a cliche and dramatic as possible as sort of an ode to the over-the-top videos that come out with every sentimental/heartbreak songs. Including but not limited to: slow motion, staring out windows and gazing off into nothingness. Here is the preview that I posted on my Facebook wall so that people could see what I had been working on. It's just my two friends and the dancing aspect of the video, but it's a step in the right direction! So enjoy my little preview and I'll dedicate another post to the final product once it's finished in a few weeks. Thank you for stopping by!
Don't forget to leave a comment on how you like the video so far :) See you tomorrow and Happy New Years, Amanda Lucille
