The document outlines a student's idea for their final major project (FMP) which is an experimental and abstract music video. The student wants to produce the music video to develop their skills in Adobe Premiere and After Effects and to build a portfolio that could lead to future work opportunities. Some influences for the project include music video directors Dexter Navy and Cole Bennett. The student aims to wow and entertain audiences through visuals and editing, employing an experimental tone and style that fluctuates between dark and light moods. They chose this style to create something unique and further explore video editing techniques.
