This made us unequipped for shooting the activity successions in our business. Despite this incident we immediately chose to film the initial scenes of our business all things being equal.  The principal scene of the film we recorded was my accomplice strolling together. We recorded this scene first since we figured it would be the simplest shot to film and since it opened the business we accepted that this would permit us to see an overall inclination that the promotion would pass on. While this shot appeared to be simple it required different retakes in light of the fact that the lower part of the flight of stairs was involved by different understudies.

 For this project, my group has elected to make a commercial for the sports beverage Powerade. The commercials made for this product usually revolve around vigorous and strenuous physical activity, which is followed by replenishment via the athletic beverage. The appearance of the actors are mostly sweaty, exhausted, and in need of replenishment. This conveys to the audience that the athletes displayed desire and require the aid of nutrients and electrolytes from the product. The audio of the commercials usually consist of fast pace up beat music with no lyrics. Occasionally the commercials use a faded sound effect on top of music or natural audio before the drink is consumed. This highlights the replenishment that the product delivers to the body. The costumes worn the videos usually are athletic apparel such as uniforms, shoes, etc. This sets the tone of the add by linking the product to athleticism and exercise.

Noah is one of my best friends but I selected him only because he has the attributes a good project partner should have. He is a very intelligent student who maintains above a 4.0 GPA. His work ethic is through the roof when it comes to school work. He always gets what he needs to get done on time and it's always done up to the highest standards. I have worked with Noah in the past on projects and he always made his best efforts to assist the group in whatever they needed. Knowing that he is a great team player is such a good confidence booster because I can rely on him.

Also, Noah in the past has worked with various forms of technology like cameras and sound editing soft

    My name is Felipe Lopez and my family is from Edmonton. I am from Tampa, Florida, but I moved to Ft Lauderdale, Florida 3 years ago. I attend Fort Lauderdale High School as a sophomore. Also I am a student enrolled in AICE Media Studies AS level.  I enjoy playing sports and watching movies. I was always really fascinated by the behind-the-scenes of how movies were made. So, I enrolled into this class so that I can learn more about the filmmaking process. I also am learning how to edit videos in a separate class. I can use those skills for when I need to edit my projects.  Then, I will be able to see what goes on pre-production. This class may open up my perspective on the film-making world causing me to look for jobs that can enhance my knowledge and experience on movies/tv shows. I have a really good work ethic and this class will only make that better. There is going to be a lot of assignments but they are going to be enjoyable and fun because I am going to be learning so much ab
