The objective for the lesson was to find at least three design elements, I found some an did the draw over on the Rep video Composition for a David Archuleta music Video. His music is amazing and I enjoy listening to his words. He has enlighten me with his vocals, and his videos are motivating. You can really see this when it comes to what kind of crowds his songs draws in for his musical talent.

This Crush song video that he wrote after his American Idol duel year of 2008, has received a lot of metrics with 460 k likes and 8.1 K dislikes you can see that he has a pretty good track record. He is famous because of his great attributes as a singer. He puts people before himself in many occasions. You can tell this by his willingness to serve a mission in Chile and put his career that was steadily moving forward with overcrowded audiences on hold. Yet he was willing to give that up to serve the People in Chile and serve the lord. He now is performing all over the world and has learn multiple languages. David Archuleta is a smart sweet kind of person who is willing to give service where it is needed.

I prefer to listen to his music over any other singer his music usually puts me in a uplifted mood. I have depression and when I hear one of his songs it makes me less depressed and more ready to do my work and serve others. I just put one of his songs on and give it a listen and I realize that the savior love each of us. We each have a purpose, and a reason to be here. In many of his songs there is so much light and they make his spirit shine before the world and he has helped inspire many people to join the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He has inspired me to stay close to the savior words by listening to his words and he keeps his true Christlike spirit with him it shows through his singing. You can see that he is a true disciple of Jesus Christ and that he lives his religion.

2008 David Archuleta Crush Song (Official video usage)
2008 CRUSH-David Archuleta

David Archuleta song lyrics Script:

Oooooh ohhhhh
Oooooh ohhhhh

I hung up the phone tonight
Something happened for the first time
Deep inside
It was a rush, what a rush (What a rush)
’Cause the possibility

That you would ever feel the same way about me
It’s just too much, just too much (Just too much)
Why do I keep running from the truth?
All I ever think about is you

You’ve got me hypnotized, so mesmerized
And I just got to know
Do you ever think when you’re all alone?
All that we could be, where this thing could go?

CRUSH SONG: Design Elements

The top four design concepts I see are great color choice, Wonderful alignment, good use of Lines and Fabulous Typography. The design is mark with multiple colors, the different shades of colors stand for the design element. The great color of purple is use to describe how beautiful and simple the design yet it has a feeling of elegance. When it comes to the chromatic shades of coloring all through out the video with the color brown and the musky coloring.The blue color has match up the wonderful alignment that is in all of David Archuleta videos. Which is used wonderfully and set up guidelines which are very natural in the video. The lines in the video are naturally used through the movement. It shows this because of the proximity used in this video. Lines in the Crush song is more than important it helps you see what you need to see which what draws you into the image. There is a use of the third rule, because you can literally divide the image into third and see some sort of imagery that would make sense in a picture perfect setting. The typography is basically where it states the numbers on the left hand side and VEVO signature on the right hand side on the bottom.
