Production Blog - Commercial preperation

 Hello everyone, welcome back to the blog! This blog is going to be focused entirely on the process of making the actual commercial. Starting with the first scene of the story board I drove to a state park here in Florida in order to get the woodsy vibe and scenery that I am trying to achieve in my establishing shot. But as Floridian weather does whatever it wants, it started to pour before I even reached the park. I wasn't going to further test my luck by waiting out the wet weather as it could easily go on for days here. So I instead decided that I would start compiling my already captured pictures and videos and have them ready. I started downloading all the pre recorded clips and pictures from my camera on to my computer so I could start editing when ready. I then imported all the ready to go pictures an videos onto Adobe premiere pro. I also got started on getting the music I wanted to use in the commercial. I had already bought both songs I want to used so it was just a matter of getting them on adobe. So I downloaded the songs down onto my computer and then imported them onto premiere pro just to have it ready. Both songs are individually long enough to cover the length of the commercial so when I sit down to do the final edit I will test both song to see which fits better. And scrap the other that does not fit the style I am searching for. Since I am also still preparing the costume choice I am going to go with for the filming of the first clip. For the upper body I have decided on wearing a dark green button up as it goes with the theme and it fits the fact that green is the goal aesthetic. If it is too hot outside for the button up I will swap it for a bigger linen shirt. For the lower body I decided on wearing a pare of hiking shorts with pockets since they give a outdoorsy impression.  And I haven't decided on if  want to wear a hat or not so I will see what I decide on once I drive to the park a second time. I will be wearing handmade bracelets too to further sell the rugged outdoor theme. Other than that, that is it for this blog everyone, thank you for reading! 


It was a pleasure, goodbye.

Final Task- Peer Review

  Hello Everyone! Welcome back to todays blog! Todays topic is going to be focused mainly about a peer review of the Final Task recently finished. The following text will be takes from a friend of mine who gave his time to watch and critically review my Final Task. " The sequence, while gripping and atmospheric, also presented several areas for improvement.  Firstly, the use of eerie music and sound effects effectively set the proper mood and created a sense of suspense right from the start. The choice of soundtrack greatly enhanced the anticipation, making it a standout element that should definitely be kept.  However, the pacing of the title sequence seemed a bit rushed. Slowing down the transitions between scenes and allowing certain shots to linger could amplify the immersion and build a stronger connection with the audience.  Visually, the use of lighting and shadows was commendable. The interplay of light and dark added depth to the scenes and added to the over...

Production Blog- First Successes

 Hello everyone and welcome back to the blog! Todays topic is about the first few sessions of filming for the music video. The Florida weather finally cleared up and was sunny for the first time in a while. I took this opportunity of good weather to start the filming process for a few scenes. The scenes I wanted to get finished up where the, forest  scene, the beach scene and the open field  scene. I planned to film these three scenes throughout the course of two days. For the beach scene I needed to catch the sunrise to make the scene more pleasing to the eyes. So I needed to be up at at the beach at around 7:00 in the morning to film. I spent the first day filming on the beach and got all the clips I needed for the scene. All I brought with me was a tripod and the costume I chose for the film session. I chose a red tank top and a blue pair of bathing trunks so that it would be safe to in the water since they are light clothes. I spent the second day filming the field sc...
