Props:

Since I chose to film a Coca-Cola commercial, the obvious main prop will be a Coca-Cola bottle (glass bottle).  I will also use an ice cooler to cool the bottle so it looks like a real commercial for Coca-Cola. 

Costumes:

I will be filming this using two individuals. One of my friends or family members and myself will be the actors in the commercial. We will most likely film the commercial at my pool or the beach, so we will probably be wear one-piece swimsuits with denim shorts to keep the costume within dress code guidelines.      

Schedule:

10/23/20: I will research conventions and codes of Coca-Cola commercials, then completing the blog for it. 

10/23/20: I will also be planning my props, costumes, schedule, location list, and a backup plan for my commercial, while also completing the blog for it.

10/24/20: I will create and upload storyboard blog.

10/25/20-10/27/20: These will be days that I can film my commercial and to edit it also.  

10/27/20: After finishing my commercial, I will complete my filming blog.

10/28/20: On this day, I will complete my editing blog.

11/03/20: This will be my last day to upload my commercial. 

Location List:

The main location that I will be using for the commercial will be my pool or the beach. When someone is outside on a really hot day with their friends, what better drink to have than a nice cold Coca-Cola.   

Backup Plan:

If for some case the weather is horrible on the days that I scheduled to film, then I would have to move my location to an indoor area, maybe like a bedroom. I would end up having my commercial's story be two friends having a sleepover, eating popcorn and drinking Coca-Cola. I could also instead have a scene where a couple is having a movie date in the living room eating the same popcorn and Cola-Cola combo.

Starting the Final Task

Image
Hello, my name is Paulina Moreno. I'm in twelfth grade and I'm heading to college in the fall of 2021. I was originally born in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, but I've moved a lot since then. I've lived in many parts of Mexico, and also in Georgia and Florida, here in the United States. I've never really stayed in one place for too long, but that's what makes my life so fun. Everything I have experienced in the past has made me into the person I am today. My life is kind of like a movie, there are many ups and downs that shape the character into the person they are. That's why I love Media Studies. I want to learn how movies are created and all the different things that are incorporated into the film industry. I also want to learn how movies from other countries are made because I used to live in another country and movies are really different there. For the final task assignment, I decided to work by myself. Because COVID-19 is still a big problem in the United States...

TiK ToK (Music Video)

Image
"TiK ToK"  For the music video project, I was actually really excited, but I had many questions. What song am I going to choose? How do I want to film it? Do I want more people in the video or just myself? What would I wear in the video? What props would I use? I had many more questions but I had to think quickly. I ended up choosing a song called "TiK ToK" by Kesha. I chose this song because I needed to choose a song that I knew the lyrics to, and I can never go wrong with a 2000s song. I posted my intro blog on November 13th. This blog was all about my song choice and if I was planning to film with anyone else. Then a few days later I started researching the pop music genre. I posted my research blog on November 16th. The day after, I posted my planning blog. This blog was about my filming schedule, my props, and my costumes. In the days after, I drew out my storyboard and posted it on November 20th. This blog is the most important in my opinion. Without the story...

Production Blog: Filming is complete, now continuing to edit

Image
These past few days have been really productive in regards to my film. I finished filming all of my remaining scenes over the past two days. I did this on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Tuesday, I went to the beach to film the driving scenes. I have a couple scenes that take place in my car, so I had to film a lot of angles and views. I went to the beach with my mom, because some of the clips don't take place inside of the car. She drove my car, while I filmed. She doesn't know how to film, so since the clips were from far away, you can't tell who's driving the car. On Wednesday, I filmed the scenes that take place at my house. Either in the driveway or inside. I was waiting until Wednesday to film these scenes because I didn't have the props for them until earlier this week. I used a cardboard box for one scene. For this scene, I had to be packing up my clothes, to represent my packing for the move. In another scene, I used a "for sale" sign in my driveway. Th...
