Planning for my Gatorade Commercial

 Props

I decided to create a Gatorade commercial, with that comes the planning and creation of this commercial. For this commercial I am going to use a bottle of Gatorade as a prop to advertise and drink within this commercial. 

Costumes

For this commercial I will have one main person throughout the whole commercial. This person would wear athletic clothing like a loose fitting shirt or tank top, shorts, and running shoes. The person in the commercial will wear their hair back to prevent their hair getting in their face, which would prevent the audience from seeing them. I plan on having my main subject do exercises, therefore having them wear athletic clothing is crucial to the development of this commercial. 

Schedule

I will follow a schedule to complete this project in a timely manner and have time to film, edit, and upload this commercial. On October 23rd, I researched the conventions of Gatorade, and started to plan out how I will complete this commercial. On October 24th I will getting my props, costumes, and equipment together so I will be completely ready for when I have to film. On October 26th I will storyboard my commercial so I have everything planned out for my commercial, and I will know exactly what to do. On October 28th I will film all of the shots for my commercial. On October 30th I will edit my commercial and see if I have to add anything to it. If I follow this schedule this could help me on completing my commercial early, just in case I need more time to fix anything.

Location

I will film my commercial at a park, since its an open field and a good place to show someone working out and running. My commercial being filmed at a park shows that my main subject is working out and is very athletic, which sets the tone for the commercial being a sports drink commercial. My commercial being filmed at a park makes the commercial seem more personable to the audience, since anyone is able to go to a park to work out and run. Also with my main subject working out and being tired will put emphasis on Gatorade, because they will be seen drinking it and feeling refreshed. 

Backup Plan

My back up plan for if the weather is undesirable is to film we may go under a pavilion. I would film my main subject doing jumping jacks, pushups, and other workouts there. If the weather ends up becoming dangerous (lightning) we may have to film on another day. Going by this plan, this
would work in getting my commercial done by the due date, and having it still be of quality.

Planning to Film: Items Needed

Image
 I decided not to film this weekend due to the fact that I didn't have all the items needed. In a previous blog I mentioned all of the items I needed to film. The past weekend I decided to dedicate it to making a list and buying everything I needed for the film. If I didn't dedicate this weekend to buying all of the materials I needed, I would not be able to film. I would rather film fully prepared with everything I need before hand, than start filming and not have anything. Without all of the proper items needed to film, this film would not be complete and would overall take longer. This weekend I looked around my house to see what I had, and what I could use as props for my film. I looked all around my house since I would like to use items I already had instead of going out and buying items that are unneeded. I found some items that could be used within the film, in my house, thus bringing down the cost. However, I couldn't find all of the items I needed for the film. Sin...

Planning to Film

Image
 I can not film during the week due to school and other obligations I have. Instead of not being proactive about filming, I decided that I am going to see what I need to do before I film. I looked at what props I would need for the film, and seeing what I would need to do to attain that. I decided that I will probably need some rope for my final task, so I have to see how much it costs, and where to buy it. I also must decide when I am going to go out and buy the rope with my parents since I don't have a car. I also must decide who I want to act in the film and who they are going to play. After I decide who I want to be in the film, and who they are going to play, I have to contact them. I plan to start filming and having everything I need by next weekend, so that gives me a lot of time to plan. I also plan to film throughout spring break since I will be able to film during the week since we will not have school. I also must start thinking about how much this project may cost with ...

Genre Research: Action

 I conducted research this year on the action genre of movies where I discussed the different aspects of the genre of action movies. I made sure in the powerpoint to add different pictures and examples of each term I researched. I specifically used pictures from action movies to show how each term was used and to show action examples. I discussed the lighting in action movies, which typically tends to be low-key lighting, high-key lighting, and Rembrandt lighting. I used pictures from movies like "Fight Club" to show the use of this lighting in these movies. I discussed the camera angles in action movies, which tend to be establishing shots, ariel shots, close up shots, mid shots, and high angle shots. I used the establishing shot from the Harry Potter series to use has an example to show an example of an establishing shot. I discussed the movement that is used in action movies which are pans, zooms, reverse zooms, tilt, and crane shots. I discussed the mise-en-scene in actio...
