Health and Safety

- To rule out any necessary health concerns, no hazardous areas will be used for filming nor will any hazardous substances be ingested during the creation of this film. For safety purposes, all public locations will be contacted a minimum of 3 days prior to the projected filming date in order to gain secure approval to lawfully film in the establishments. Filming will take place no later than early evening to prevent run ins with nightlife. 

Props:

- This film will consist of mundane props such as Laura’s journal. The film imitates reality so for props are necessary to note


Costumes:

- Costuming will be clothing of their actors’ choice. The film is a realistic drama where the actors are portraying teenagers, therefore I would prefer a more natural look encouraging the actors to dress as they normally would. Laura portrays a darker and more gothic teen, therefore I encourage Laura to dress in more black and grey tones while remaining feminine. As Jasmine’s Character is more of a hyperfeminine teenage girl, I encourage her to wear brighter colors and tones to create a contrast from Laura. Joseph is playing a normal teenage boy so I encourage him ti simple wear what he normally would.

 Hello everyone, welcome to my second blog post, my Group Blog! For my upcoming project, I am choosing to take the route of working alone. Working in groups is not something that I am opposed to, however I want to take the time to evaluate myself and interpret the material before I branch out into collaborating with others. Through the process of curating my first Media Studies project, I want to take the solitude to truly take in the process of going from and creating my idea, to giving a treatment, to writing up my script and storyboard, to then making said film. I will say I do enjoy having creative freedom in the things I create which drives me to want to work solo. having the ability to use whatever idea that comes to my mind as well as having total control, within project guidelines of course, of what I create and how I go about editing, acting, or producing upon sound enticing to me. I will say that working alone does have its' downsides. When working alone you don't get...

Another Hiccup

Image
 Hi everyone! Welcome to my twelfth production blog. While things were going smoothly. Of course there was another hiccup. The big cheating scene I raved about completing, of course it was incorrect. Of the many errors in the scene I would accept such as noise in the background or people moving too much, I made the worst and most simple mistake. I shot the video vertically. honestly this has made me quite upset. As much fun as this film was, I am honestly so ready to move on from it. I love AICE Media and it’s been a fun two years taking the course but my oh my this film has been very consuming. Since today is Friday, I do have to wait almost a week to continue filming. Due to scheduling the only days designated to film were Tuesdays through Thursdays. Hopefully Elijah, Jasmine, and Laura can all make it. But it’ll all be okay. One thing I am reassuring myself of is that spring break is near so I’ll be able to utilize more than 3 hours 3 days a week to get things moving. Honestly, ...

 Hello everyone, welcome to my Planning Blog! In this blog the general commercial plan will be discussed for my Gatorade Protein Bar commercial partnered with David Brown! The general overview of the commercial is to portray our core athlete, David Brown, who will be a track star consuming the bar before he begins his sprint along the track. The commercial begins by a wide shot zooming in capturing David doing some stretches and setting up the track obstacles to prepare for his sprint. The next scene will cue to David eating the bar while looking victorious in the face getting ready to run the track. David then sets the bar down on a table and moves away. After this another wide shot scene will play out with David in his starting stance preparing to dash the track. The scene will continue with David dashing the track, and then the shot will zoom back on the bar with the Gatorade logo appearing in the screen. going For our costume, David's track uniform will be used along with his r...
