To begin the full group filming process everyone met up at Dania Pointe as planned. I coordinated schedules and times to accommodate everyone. Over the weekend on Saturday we all showed up at 11:00am. For today I decided to work on the second scene. The second scene consists of a split screen of the varying perspective of one side eating alone and one side eating with friends. So to set up I first had to find 2 separate areas of Dania Pointe to film. I walked around for about an hour scouting out filming locations. The first place I saw was a long strip of fake grass with a lot of tables around. I thought it would be a good place because it had a nice environment and background. The next area I found was shadowed and isolated. I thought that it would be a good idea to have our solo actor film there. I then walked around and found a couple of other spots but ultimately decided on the first two I found. After this I brought in the actors for the group scene. They all went and got ic...
Before editing the project together I decided I wanted to get one more piece of media to show who I am. This final piece of media would be music. My music taste is very diverse. I like rap, pop, electronic, but mostly indie music. Since my music taste is as diverse as it is I wanted to try and stick to one genre so that the general mood of the commercial is the same throughout. So, I first went to Spotify to search for specific albums I like. The first album I looked at was “Is This It” by The Strokes. Is This It is one of my favorite albums so this was a very obvious place to get a song from. After listening to the full album I narrowed the choices down to “The Modern Age” “Soma” and “Hard To Explain”. I’ll decide which one to use when I start editing the project so I can see which song fits the best with the video. Next, I went through one of my favorite artist’s discography for my next few songs. This artist is called Good Kid and I’ve been a big fan of them for several years now so...
I showed up to Dania Pointe for the second day ready to shoot. When I got their I had to wait a couple of minutes for the rest of my group to show up. After around 15 minutes Ayannah showed up. It seemed like no one else was coming so I decided to film the rest of Ayannah's scenes. I had her go over to the movie theater. I wanted to try and film a scene with her siting in the theater. I went up to the staff of the theater but they told us that we would not be allowed to film inside of an empty movie theater. So, I instead went over to the small arcade inside the movie theater. In there I directed Ayannah on what to do and filmed her playing different games. The first game I had her play was the claw machine. I had her intentionally not win a prize as the mood is supposed to be somber for her scenes. After the claw machine we went over and filmed her playing the basketball game alone. I tried angling her phone so that you could visibly see the song playing on it but it didn't wo...
