I found G-Eazy through my sister, who went to one of his concerts in NYC sometime in the last few weeks. As someone who doesn't like rap, I kinda made fun of her for listening to him. I decided to listen to a few songs though, because he has a song with Tennis, who I like.
Here are some of his songs...
His music is really catchy, and, like whenever I find a new album I like, I listened to him on repeat all weekend. This white rapper, although perhaps not the most talented, mixes scenes from the 50s with his rap. Most of his songs have something to do with how great/rich/famous he is, but he does a good job breaking up his raps with choruses by different artists.
The Shackle

This is my 60 second video project.
For this project, we had to randomly choose a prop. All of the props were spread out on the floor in trash bags, so we had no idea what we were going to get. We ended up with a toy shackle (a fairly cheap one...it broke about five minutes after we shot our last shot). After 15 minutes of brainstorming, we decided that we would have Ben be a boy trying out for the track team. The shackle was more of a metaphor for the hurt he felt after being insulted by me than anything else. We added the cupcakes at the end to finish on a more humorous note.
We used one of the school's cameras, which actually produced much better quality film than I had expected.
This project really showed me that it is possible to make videos very quickly. We had a week to complete the project, and I am very happy with the result. By carefully planning out each day and mapping out our goals, Rachel, Amy, Ben, Jordan and I were able to finish the video during class. Although more editing time would have made the finished product a little cleaner, I think that the video still turned out great.
This was a really fun project and I am glad that our British exchange students were able to do it with us.
