Lip Sync Exercise


Shake It Off

Learning the lyrics?

But I keep cruising
Can't stop, won't stop moving
It's like I got this music
In my mind
Saying, "It's gonna be alright."

'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off
Heart-breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake
Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
I shake it off, I shake it off.


We started this exercise in the studio with three different sets to use to make our short clip of shake it off.

Wordpress VS Wix


When working with both of these softwares I realised that I like one very much and really disliked the other. Loved Wix, couldn't stand Wordpress. 

The way Wordpress is set up as more of a blogging website, which made it hard to manipulate pages, let alone it would not publish any of my posts that I wished. It was very confusing at times with trying to set up the design.

Wix however was much more simple when it came to making the design for the website was simple and I could manipulate anything on the page and other posts.

If I would have to choose it would definitely be Wix, with all the freedom that it gave me to design the site. Wordpress was too hard work out at times. 

Trying out Wix


Wix is by far an easier piece of technology
to use when making a website. It is so logical
in the way you are deigning. You can click and
adjust it almost anywhere. By being so much 
simpler to try out, I ended up making a better
home page for 'The Black Keys', being able to 
quickly colour it to their colour scheme.


I was able to place pictures efficiently on the 
site, and add a video and place it. Wix is so 
much better for the design of a website.

Dyer's Point Proved by Beyonce?


In this video Beyonce, a very successful artist
she talks about how she is a normal person really
and has a star persona. This is exactly what 
Dyer talks about in his theory.

Trying out Wordpress




What Artist did I decide to use? 
Earl Sweatshirt

He is a rapper that I am a big fan of, I love his style and music.


His Video I used :




I was able to design the websites cover and add pictures. I think it looked good for the artist.





The Actual Website? Pages? Text?




I was very confused about this part of the website. Every time I saved a new page that I edited it would save itself as a draft and then disappear, never coming up on the website. I know there will be a way around this, but for now I found it very annoying to work with. All the work I did would go missing and then I would have to do it repeatedly.
