First of all, here is the link to the Mrs. Fregoso theme song and the instrumental beat for it: https://untitled.stream/library/project/lVNF6T4ZyTzUfLCnfSOat This project has been so gratifying and I have learned so much. I have learned so much and feel like I can talk about social media marketing with a lot more knowledge and understanding, and I am able to create much better content than I was able to before I started this project. Also, creating the Mrs. Fregoso theme song

Today, I had the honor of presenting the completed Mrs. Fregoso Theme Song to the whole class. It was extremely gratifying to see everyone’s response and hear feedback. I am truly proud of the song and think it serves as a timecapsule of the essence of life of our class in this moment, and as a form of gratitude for Mrs. Fregoso and all she’s done for us as a teacher and mentor. Here is a video from the presentation! Thankful for everyone who participated and helped bring thi

Today, I have started to research how to create content using AI. I am heavily inspired by YouTube Shorts content such as a split screen video including gameplay of a game like Subway Surfers or Farming Simulator on the bottom, a podcast or music artist on top, and lyrics/captions in the middle, like the picture displayed here. I have been conversation with ChatGPT, asking about what AI programs could help me create mass amounts of clips like this, featuring my music/content

Today I got the groove down for the Ms. Fregoso theme song and programmed some drums, bass, and keys using only the sounds gathered from my classmates! I recieved awesome response from classmates while making the song in the hallway, and even got some people dancing!!! Here is a screen recording of me laying down the beat. Going to work on it more and finish the theme song in time for M5: Show and Tell !

Today, I had an amazing time and was so grateful for such positive participation from so many classmates! Everyone made awesome sounds with their voices which I recorded on voice memos and inputted into Ableton, my Digital Audio Workstation on which I make music. By the end, I had over 25 processed sounds. For the next step, I will produce a Ms. Fregoso theme song using my classmates’ sounds! Here are some videos of the process from today: Excited to make this song!!!

Today, my friend Nik helped me film 3 pieces of content to three of my unreleased original songs. Using the templates that I made on CapCut and the content creation tricks I've learned thus far, I created three pieces of content with text on screen and a consistent visual aesthetic. Here they are: In total, this brings me up to about four pieces of pseudo-content that I have made and is postable thus far. Ultimately, the content looks pretty good, but not good enough. The fil

Hey! So first of all, I've landed on a font I like for the "Text on Screen" effect for my content. It is called "Sequel" and can be found in CapCut. I also know how to make my favorite yellow for the text color, but I haven't learned how to make the color a preset or "Brand Color" in CapCut. I use the "Bounce Out" animation for captions, which brings one word at a time on screen. A routine/posting method that is realistic and could work no matter what I have going on is as fo

SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THE WORK TODAY! Learned how to put text BEHIND me, making the content look more interesting and professional. In additon, I learned how to have only one word appear on screen at a time, which is more engaging. I now know how to do this for every video. Here is an example using the piece of content I made during last session!

Today, my good friend Nik helped me film a piece of content. I utilized hooks and filming styles that I learned from analyzing TikToks. I used a visual hook, zooming in at the beginning, and filmed a medium-shot video in three different places, cutting between the different shots over my video "Breakfast in Bed". Then, I made a preset for text on screen, choosing the specific yellow and font that I like. Then, I figured out how to use CapCut's AI feature that analyzes the sou

What's up!!!!!! Today, I learned how to save video adjustment settings and filters as presets in CapCut, so that I could have easy access to the aesthetic/color grading I worked on for every piece of content I choose to post. With these new preset settings and accessibility, I would be able to input any video and instantly color grade it with my previously-inputted settings. I saved my current visual aesthetic as a preset and it's looking pretty good. This weekend I will twea

Today, I experimented with building visual aesthetic through using filters and adjustment tools on CapCut. Last Friday, my friends Nik and Kieran helped me film videos of me standing in different lighting. Today, I went through filters and applied one I liked to one of the videos, and made some visual adjustments as well. It's getting there! I am happy with how it is looking aesthetically. Now I need to keep developing it and learn how to save it as a preset in CapCut. We are

Today I went rogue and combined my written task with in-the-moment inspiration. I created an Instagram Reel/TikTok to my own music with the help of my friends Nik and Kieran. I used CapCut to create the visual aesthetic using and editing filters. We used the "transition hook", filming an unusual situation in a snapchat style and then transitioning to the content of me singing my music. I am not 100% happy with it, but it is an experiment, and the editing/aesthetic clarity wil

This past weekend, I archived more Instagram posts that have helpful information for aspiring artists related to creating engaging content. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTaz6BREezp/?igsh=Mzc3ZTVlOWMwZA== This post shows how Higgsfield Relight is an AI program that allows one to give new, realistic lighting to any video. Here is more information from a similar post on Higgsfield AI. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTWFI47jTeA/?igsh=Mzc3ZTVlOWMwZA%3D%3D Here’s exactly how to d

For today's blog post, I will be going back and summarizing the lessons that I may learn from the TikTok and Instagram posts I archived in the last blog post. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQKW2_kCOc5/?igsh=Mzc3ZTVlOWMwZA== 5 formats of content that consistently go viral. Transition - start with a crazy situation filmed like a civilian on snapchat with snapchat text and then quickly cut to better quality content of you singing your music in the same setting. This captures th

This weekend, I archived several posts I saw on TikTok Instagram that explained strategies and hooks that artists should use to create engaging content that can better predict virality. In addition, some posts display useful methods to create masses of content. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8yGAkjX/ In this TikTok, a guy named Rom built a website called " app.theflowstage.com ". This website allows music creators to pick different lyric styles, upload songs, and draft any number

Welcome to my blog. I am so excited to go on this journey and share my progress, learning, and research with you. This is a beautiful time in life and I am ready to sharpen my skills and knowledge on how to create and promote content that displays a consistent, authentic aesthetic! See ya next week :D
