Self Portrait reflection and Music video expectations

I had a lot of fun completing my self-portrait.  At the beginning of the project I was really excited and filled with ideas and then I realized I was having trouble sticking with a single idea.  I feel like my self-portrait represented me in the fact that it had elements of many ideas but couldn't just stick with one.  Sometimes less is more.  I really wanted to challenge myself production-wise which I did but I didn't spend enough thinking about the mise en scene.  I knew I wanted to practice using masking methods to include multiple "me"s at home with my girlfriend and dog but I feel like that was just a little random. I'm not really sure what my expectations where but I feel like it all worked out in the end.  


For our up-coming music video assignment, I am very excited and confident our group can work well together and I also believe we have a lot of talent in our group.  As the producer for this assignment, I feel the weight of the responsibility but I am not worried.  I am just hoping our group members all come to their senses and show up when they are needed considering this has to be a group effort.  Our group met up over the weekend for the first time and a few group members were not able to show up. I don't feel like that’s a very good start but from the members who did show, we were still able to make executive decisions and continue to move forward. Also, considering I want to produce music videos in the future I have been looking forward to this assignment all semester.
