AICE Media Studies

 Today was our first day filming. We filmed at the picnic tables outside of the cafeteria. We got set up to film and than realized we forgot to bring one of our props with us(blank piece of paper/printer paper). Because of this we had to go back to the classroom to get it. After we got the forgotten prop we went back to ore filming location and set everything up again. We started filming our first scene of our commercial (first scene that was filmed). I was the actor/person being filmed.  Tasmia and Kennedy filmed and acted as directors. For this scene we did have some bloopers and had to film several takes before we got the one we wanted to use (the final take). After we had finished filming the first scene we went to the next scene on our storyboard. We had a lot of takes that we didn't use for various reasons. One reason was it was kind of windy when we were filming. So the paper sometimes would fly off the table in the middle of filming and/or in-between takes. Another rea...

  First scene:   In the first scene, it will show a person trying to use  write with a random pen  but then they realize that it won’t work (dried out/out of ink).   Second scene:   Then we cut to a scene where a backpack is being opened and a Paper Mate pen is being taken out of one of the pouches.    Third scene:    For this scene, there will be a jump  cut  showing the continuous writing with our product.   Fourth scene:     This scene will have a montage  of six pens getting in line side by side.    Fifth scene:     The last scene will just show the logo for Paper Mate  to finish the commercial off.   *Each scene will have music in the background.    

 My group decided to do a Paper Mate commercial. Because of the research we did our audience will be seeing the product (Paper Mate pens) being used to write by the actors/people in the commercial.  The music we will be using will be cheerful sounding to keep the audience interested/engaged in the commercial.  The actors/people in the commercial will be wearing regular/street clothes that would be worn on a normal/regular day.  In the actual commercial the actors will be writing and/or drawing to show what the pens are used for and the quality of them.  We will not need a lot of props. The props we will use for this commercial is paper Mate pens, a regular (other pen that is not the same brand as the one being advertised) pen, a backpack, and a sheet of paper.       Conventions and Codes:  1. All of these types of commercials zoom in on the words that the actor/person in the commercial is writing.  2. After seeing/watching a lot of ...

  Props:     My group will be using a backpack, piece of paper and our product (Paper Mate pens). We will also be using a different type of pen (not the one we are advertising) to contrast to the Paper Mate pen.  Since we will be making our commercial about a brand of pen we will not need to have a lot of props.  Costumes:  My groupmates and I will all be in the commercial (be actors). Since this commercial is about pens (usually people are wearing normal clothes) we will just be wearing regular/normal/street clothes. If our filming takes place between multiple days we will make sure to be wearing the same things- so not to have a confused audience/have it make sense.  Schedule:   On 9/23/21: Our group will research any essential things for this project/commercial. The planning for things such as a backup plan, set/location, costumes, scheduling and the props needed will also be finished.  By 9/29/21: We will make sure the storyboar...

 Right now we are doing a commercial and have to apply what we have learned so far. I am excited and a little bit nervous as this is my first time filming and editing. I am also excited to act again as I have not done acting for over a year.   For this project I decided to work in a group. I am working with two other people. Their names are Tasmia K and Kennedy N. I decided to work in a group so we could evenly distribute the work. I am a person who gets overwhelmed easily(doing a project). If I have people helping me than it is not as bad. As I know that I do not have to do all the work by myself.  I decided to work with my groupmates because they each have some experience with certain elements/parts of the filming process. I also know them and know that they will get the work done/contribute. Tasmia has filmed and edited videos with her cousins. So she knows how to use some editing software. She also knows how to film certain camera angles and make them look good. ...

 Hi, I'm Madelyn. I enjoy doing a lot of different things. Some of those things are baking, playing the clarinet, swimming, learning new things and exploring new places/traveling. I also like being active and have done a bunch of sports such as ballet, gymnastics and Taekwondo. I did ballet for 2 years and Taekwondo for almost 5. I also love to read and open a book whenever I can. I especially like reading historical fiction and read many Magic Treehouse books when I was younger. I try to be organized because when I am not I learned that I tend to lose things or forget about important events and/or dates.  I love animals and plan to become a veterinarian when I grow up. I am very interested/passionate about the planet/saving it. I often do things such as beach cleanups. And after learning about fast fashion and the negative impacts that industry has on people and the planet I have tried to shop more sustainability.  I was very excited to know I was taking this class this ...
