I submitted two videos for this project. The first video is on a painting called In The Cotton Field by William Walker. I chose this painting because it is black history month and it really spoke to me. I wanted to use the song freedom by Nicki Minaj because this song talks about feeling free and hope, just like the black people felt when slavery ended or how they dreamed of being free from slavery.


The second video uses the song Marilyn Monroe by Nicki Minaj with a picture of Nicki Minaj as Marilyn Monroe. I decided do do this second one because I love Nicki Minaj and this song talks about how she feels misunderstood sometimes just like how Marilyn Monroe did. This is her way of connecting with someone else and it shows a completely different side of Nicki Minaj. The images in this video become distorted to show how she is misunderstood and the last one goes from distorted to regular to show how she is overcoming it.




Both of these had their difficulties. Even thought it may not look like it is a lot of work or that hard it took me so long to do this and there were so many struggles. I am very pleased with the work I did and I think both of these move slowly through the song to add more emotion.
