Filming day

     Yes, we finally did it! My group member and I have finally finished to filming process. We were originally supposed to film yesterday after school but due to a storm that has passed by we were unable to. School has been closed for 2 days because of flooding and this has prevented my partner and I from meeting up afterwards. Although, since school was closed I decided to take advantage of this and film in the morning. I went to my partners house to start the plot of our film. In the first scene it showed me meeting my roomate explaining how I want a dog. My group member decides to rebuttal this decision but ends up caving in. I was able to use my partners dog to show this. Serveral of the scenes were filmed in the backyard. My partner and I recorded multiple conversations of us having pertaining to the dog. We were also able to take advantage of props and obstacles in this film as well. Ive noticed since my partner Sean has a pool, I can have the dog jump into the pool and cause a dilemma between both actors. In addition to this, my partner has a car, we took advantage of this to drive to dog shelter to pick up the dog. We put the dog in a cage to display that we have to buy the dog inorder to gain ownership. Bringing back the dog home with the car and bringing it to the backyard of my partners house was a very easy task. My partner and I had an easy and fun time during this filming process, finding different obstacles and working together worked our brains like a puzzle.

There is a Solution!

 It is currently Saturday. I woke up today with a text from my group member about what we're going to film. After the conversation concerning the parts about what is being filmed, I learned that my partner cannot film today either. My partner's schedule is very tight and relying on him is making it detrimental to me. Keeping in mind that this project is due very soon we still have not had anything filmed at this point. I am now getting anxious and frustrated about what my group and I are going to have to do now. My group members' tight schedule has truly made it a detriment to my time and future plans I had. Finally, my group member and I decided to film by ourselves. After we both film whenever possible, I will edit all of the clips to make it one sequence to flow smoothly with the music video. Since I was already set for Saturday I figured that I should film the first couple of scenes at the mall. Despite going to film, I had to get my brother to be the cameraman to help ...

Creative Critical Reflection

  1. My commercial challenges conventions by the opening of a panning shot. I have used the luminescent light coming from the school board sign for realistic lighting. My film represents the student class, establishing students attending to school use the product. The location displays the environment that this product can be used in. My actor has shown, pants, shirt, backpack, and shoes to portray this. By implementing this as well as having some dramatic shots, it makes the viewer want the apparel to use, targeting students mainly but not limited to.  2. My product engages with the audience by grabbing their attention with various detail zoom shots, to panning. Showing off the brand, it shows the many uses that it has. This can be distributed in the real media text as it is visually appealing. Nowadays people have a lower attention span making fast pace videos with intense shots more interesting.  3. My production skills has tremendously improved throughout. I learned h...

What’s the plan now?

    Nothing good comes easy. This is the quote keeping my motivation up. The reason I’m even thinking about this quote is because the filming dates are constantly being delayed. Unfortunately, not only does my group member and I have other work for classes but so we are busy in our daily lives. We are trying to come up with a solution so that we can accumulate together and film. We still need to look into a specific park to go to. Something along the lines next to our school or my partners house may work. It is important for it to be a spacious park so that the puppy can run around and play it’s part to act wild and free. The act of the dog being wild and free will irritate one of the characters, as mentioned in my script. This will be the introduction of the plot. My partner lives near the school. This makes it accessible to me and we can easily begin the filming process. As my partner and I know what we’re going to film we can film different parts of the movie separately. Fo...
