Commerical Blog

Honestly when I first receiving this commercial filming assignment, I was really nervous because I didn't want to mess it all up and fail. I noticed that I did a lot of errors from not having a net, or choosing the right times to film, to choosing a good editing software. But I like to think of this as a learning experience and get better as you mess up. I honestly don't think I did that bad on the commercial with my editing because I am still a beginner. Even though I felt nervous at the beginning I felt really excited at the end of it all because I got through it. I also don't think I did that bad because don't have any filming equipment like a good camera or mics for the talking. All I had was my phone and even though the quality isn't bad I didn't like the audio because of the wind in the back. Therefore I think choosing the right time of the day is better. If I'd have to do another commercial or any other filming project I would wake up really early and use the morning light of the sun to film. Also checking the weather app is good too, I did check it to film that's why I filmed after or before it rained. I didn't do this whole commercial in one day because of the weather, it started to drizzle when I was filming and so I went home with my friend and it was a good decision because it started pouring when we got to his house. We were going to stay there filming longer since it wasn't technically raining but we made the right choice to go home. I don't regret doing this project since it's helping me learn what and what not to do. Like I didn't know you had to use photoshop or an illustrator in order to do some of the nice looking pictures at people put in. I thought that in the editing software you do everything but that's not the case now I know there's multiple software's you can use to make a commercial. I think this commercial was a success for it being my first one and my first film that I have edited. I also learned how to put in music into the editing software and I think it turned out nice with the cuts I did. In this project I did my very first storyboard and I honesty didn't know what that was before this. Even though I'm not the best drawer I enjoyed drawing it and imagining how my commercial will be like. I think I should have done more research on editing when I was doing my research for the "Commercial Research Blog", It could've been a lot better.

Genre Research: Thriller

Thrillers will use any film aspect that emphasizes the suspense or excitement of the film. Some camera angles used in Thrillers are close-ups: which are typically used to show a character’s expression or reaction to an event, point of view shots: which engages the audience in the scene by putting them in the character’s position, high angles: which could symbolize looking down on a character in thrillers, and the opposite, low angles: which could portray the character as someone more powerful of superior. High Angle Low Angle Camera movements commonly noticed in thrillers include tracking, pans, and tilts. Tracking is used to build suspense. The camera follows a moving object or character and allows the audience to anticipate what the scene is leading to. Pans can be used to show a comparison between two or more characters, or just to show the scene’s setting more. Tilts are also used to showcase a setting, scene, or character. Tilts sometimes focus of one subject, and the camera moves...

Today we final met up again to add some final touches to the film. Not going to lie, longest drive of my life. Actually i might have driven more. Either way that was a long ride but you already know I had music so it wasn't to bad. Even though that's gas money which isn't cheap if you use your car a lot. That made me realizes things. I should've just stayed home lmao. No I'm just kidding they needed me there. Wouldn't want to disappoint them when we needed to see each other one last time. I'm use to long car rides but when you're in the car alone it gets boring even when you have the music blasting. But loud music does wake you up so I never fall asleep even when I go to work early in the morning. Music is life and I love music. I should up around 3:30 nothing to crazy. I left my sister with my mom since she came home early because I told her I was going somewhere. We had to finish editing but it all turned out fine. So there was a problem uploading the ...

Sadly notice again we haven't been able to meet up this week. I sound like I'm making so many excuses and I hate it. You guys are tired of me talk about not being able to film all the time. I've only had one blog that was actually about filming so you can probably see how little free time we have in order to film. I also just remembered I have to go put gas in my car in order for me to take that longggg drive to Isabel's house in order to film. I'm happy at the moment though because tomorrow is my birthday so i'm excited about that. I asked for a book for my birthday from Warren Buffet. He's one of the wealthiest people in the world and I really want to become something big in the future. I want to get out of my 9-5 and be financially free and help others out. How great it would be to get my parents out of there jobs. My group is busy again like usual this week but I mean so am I. Isabel has games and practices like usual and I want to spend the weekend with...
