Production Blog - Filming

 Greetings! Today I will be telling you about our process of filming the commercial. At first, we were going to film on October 12th. We were gonna film at noon, but when we both got there, it had started raining. So then we had begun to plan for the 14th. This time, we had looked at the forecast, and it had said that there would be a 30% chance of rain for the day. We planned on filming at noon. When we got there it was quite cloudy, but we begun filming. We started by filming the scenes that took place on the Football field and the Track. This was because they were furthest away from the parking lot. While filming it had begun raining. This time, we just decided to film anyways. It happened to look cooler than it would look if it hadn't rained. It really added to the theme of refreshing yourself and looked really good while paired with a sports drink. After filming on the track, we had moved to the Basketball courts and Tennis courts. The problem with this, is that they were sort of flooded and we had to use a squeegee to move the water out. After this, it looked a little better but the water was still quite noticeable. We filmed it and it turned out great. All we had to do next was film myself putting on the props. After filming everything, and reflecting on everything, I have to say that Lucas made a great call by making me the actor and him being the cameraman, because after all, it turned out great.

Critical Reflection

How do your products represent social groups or issues?     Our product illustrates how social groups are represented by presenting two guys of younger age and lower socioeconomic status who take on a camping trip. As soon as they finish setting up the campsite, they decide to explore the surrounding area of the campground, while doing so, Jean (white shirt) brings up a story of a person who had gone missing while exploring the same parts which he had read online. Riley responds that Jean is being ridiculous. Jean then further elaborates that the missing person was a child they once knew. Social groups are represented in the film as camping as a vacation is representative of a person who is young and of a lower socioeconomic class, which defines the two boys. The social issue of kidnappings or missing persons is also represented as young people are common victims to kidnappings and that missing persons reports garner very little attention in news media which explains...

Group Blog

 For an assigned group project, I was given the task to figure out who to choose as a group member for my group. I had many options on how many people I wanted in a group and I chose to have 1 other person in my group, as it reduces confliction and we can always recruit more actors. It is worth telling you that this is a project to simulate the production of a commercial for a chosen brand. I had many choices for who I would group up with. My original choice was to group up with a different friend but he was already in a group of 5, which seemed like too much to handle. I eventually chose my old friend Lucas. He has many notable specialties in production that work out perfectly for the group. Lucas and I have known each other since middle school. During middle school, we worked on a couple assignments together, so this is nothing new or uncomfortable. Lucas has positive energy and is very hardworking as well as productive. So, after realizing Lucas' background with me and with acad...
