Production Blogs: Preparations, Decorations, and Anticipation

 


Hi there! So my team and I have had a few setbacks since last time we saw each other.

First, we were supposed to film but in the end we couldn't for some reasons. We couldn't find a good day for all of us to film. We were unavailable one day or the other so in the end we didn't film. This stresses me out because we don't have a lot of time in total to film so I feel like we should try to film as quick as possible. The plan for now is that we are going to begin filming the following weekend. 

After that, I got news that we could no longer be able to film at our original location. I was thinking about any good alternative locations but came up dry. I felt like my house wouldn't be a good fit because the setting we wanted was different than what my house looked like. I also felt like my house had too many distractions. We are better off filming somewhere else.

Lastly, the original person that was gonna be our actor, Brandon, decided last minute he couldn't do it. Fortunately, my team mate Jordan, has a friend that said they could do it. His name is Jeremiah and he is going to take Brandon's position.

Aside from the misfortunes so far, I tried to help and progress by preparing. In the title sequence, there are the apples going bad and fruit and soda cans laying around. I went to the store and bought apples we could use when we begin filming. However, I bought fake apples since I didn't know how long it would until we film and I didn't want the apples going bad.

Along with the fake apples, I got different cans. I got soda cans, fruit cans, and energy drinks. I think we're gonna empty out the inside before them to give the setting a dirty look. Overall, I can't wait to film and begin this project.

  Planning Blog Props       Since my group is doing the Arizona drink, the only prop we will use the most is the Arizona can. Along with any other insignificant items in the commercial. Costumes      Nicole and I will be the actors in the commercial. In the beginning of the commercial we will have comfy, chill outfits on. Once the Arizona can is introduced, we will change outfits into something more bold and eye catching to match our drink. This is to match the 'aesthetic' of the Arizona drink. Order First, my team will figure out how we want our commercial to be. We find out our exact setting, basic concept for the ad. Next, we find out how we want to film it and how. What supplies do we use, what angles and direction we film. After we have the footage, we edit our video to fit our standards. We add the music, any transitions, on screen text, and more. Locations and Ideas The few locations we will film on is the Senior Patio, the track field, and...

Introduction My name is Yaneli Zelaya and this is my second introduction blog.  The previous project we did was fun and it gave me a chance to do something I haven't done before. This time I am definitely doing something new.   One thing about me is that I really enjoy music and the different genres. I don't have a specific favorite type of genre but I enjoy alt hip hop and rock. My current favorite song is Willshire by Tyler the Creator. from his recent album call me if you get lost. I really love the smooth rap and the lyrics themselves. Tyler really created when he made this song.  I can tell this project is going to be a fun experience and I can't wait to get to filming this music video even if it may not be a song I really like.

  After we finished the commercial a reflection sheet was given to me to measure my growth and understanding during the whole project. 1.        How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?         The AriZona Tea company likes to keep the “vintage” look and style. Their drinks are aimed to look like it’s from the 90s. The AriZona company supports the lqbtq community by teaming with It Gets Better Project. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?      AriZona Ice Tea is mostly known with teens and young adults. The old fashion aesthetic of the cans is a huge reason the audience buys the product. To be able to distribute it socially would be through social media apps popular among the audience. Such as Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube. Etc. 3.        How did your production skills develop through...
