Powerade Commercial

Finally finished my first big project with my groupmate and it was great. Looking back, the filming of this commercial had some bumps along the way, but we made it in the end. The main problem my group had to change was planning our access to accessories. This is because we do not have a backup plan for the delivery of accessories on many occasions. We also didn't take time into account when filming and sometimes played games, which prevented us from getting the top-notch shot we wanted. Despite this shortcoming, I have improved  a lot by better understanding  the filming shots and better understanding the real difficulties of filming. I also learned a lot in the editing process, especially I had a real idea of ​​how the editing software works on the phone. Those ups and downs made  filming  the project relatively stressful, but I'm still very proud of the end result and the improvements I  made. This project was technically very rewarding  and was based on the experience I had doing it. I am ready and excited about my next project.

Normally, low angles are used to portray superiority in a villain but in this case it can apply to the detective. Also, the establishing shot at the start of the mo...

Costumes are more often than not very simple and plain. Muted colors are usually used to not take away from what is actually happening in the movie.

Lowkey lighting is a high-contrast lighting technique that is typic...
