My reflection

Image
      At the end, my commercial has now been submitted and I have not received any review or opinions of my project. After I showed the commercial to my friends and peers, I received a lot of the same responses. The most common response was the voice was to low, I highly agree with that however I could not make it any louder and I will need to find a way to improve. My timing was very on point as the commercial was 53 seconds which for everything was very good. Other critiques could be the way I look at the camera, voice projecting, and attitude in the skit/acting skill. For the next time, I need to do what i can to look more alive. I also need to make more contact with the camera as I looked away for a good amount of the skit. The purpose of the skit was to have an interview and I would give the succession of that a 6.5/10. Along with side notes is the voice projection, for every skit from now on I will do as much as I can to make my voice loud and clear for the video. My acting was a

Commercial- All About Me

      My commercial I would say is now 95 percent done, it has been peer review a little and I have added my edits. All of the clips are in and a lot of the commercial flowed just how I imagined however that overall filming did change. Originally, I wanted to have my commercial filmed inside but the weather was looking fantastic so I just had to change the setting. The most annoying thing happened when I was filming, I was mid speed and my air conditioning unit came blasting on but I just had to restart until it was what I wanted. Finally I finished the filming and reduced a lot of the background noise and I smacked everything together. Through the process of the edits and cuts to other clips I noted some of my peer recommendation on what could bring out a humorous interpretation and that is exactly what I went for. After looking, my commercial was already up over a minute so I knew it would just be to long at that point, I really am aiming to keep my viewers interested. I made a few c

Scripting, Filming, and Assembly

      I have now got the permission to make my skit, I am very excited for this. As I get further through this blog, it will be as I progress in the order of the title. First is the scripting, I want to have some conversation with myself. I am coming up with simple short questions that I can ask myself. I cam up with something very simple, Hi, introduce yourself, and hobbies. For the filming, I have decided to fil on my balcony because it is very nice and has a very enjoyable background. So as this is being typed is the timeframe of my filming. I have made the set and propped my phone on the tripod, and have recorded one take. The cars placing by below are making a lot of noise and I am looking for the phone setting that can reduce background noise picked up in the microphone. Now I have made a few takes and responded to the questions I am going to edit in later. I was filming and the air conditioning unit made a huge disturbance of noise. The filming is done and now it is time for the

Choice of clips

    So I have found the bare minimum for this commercial and by bare minimum, just everything that is required. For my hobbies, I have chosen exercise and eating however I really want to add sleeping. I am not sure if i can only use the said amount of clips because I really have some great things that I can add to make this commercial great. I have a lot of weight lifting clips, some funny, others impressive however I don't know if I can use all of them. I wanted to base this commercial on a short skit that gives off humor and uses a little bit of sarcasm. The idea I have pictured fits perfectly for this assignment but I just need that upper permission. The clips I have right now are face mainly of me in the gym, pictures are face pictures and foods. A lot of the clips already are edited to the best visual look and the videos will just need to be trimmed to fit the necessary cuts for the flow. If I can get permission to do what I have visioned, it will be a short 30 second skit tha

Doing the Edits

      Once I have all of my clips and pictures visually put selected and put together it is then time to edit and tweak them to perfection. To get the clips together, there will need to script writing, making something to impact ones' emotions. From this, it will also be making a story, something to represent whatever point or narrative the commercial is supposed to meet. Casting also plays a role in this, depending on the narrative, I can do it on my own or with others. Of course I will need to go location scouting followed by the filming. The filming will consist of multiple shots and takes. Now to the editing, y editing will consist with visual tweaks such as lighting effects. This could be the saturation and vibrance adjustment or detail boosts or maybe both. Of course the goal is to create a visually stunning and emotionally resonant piece. As the editing goes on I need to repeatedly check everything I have done. Everything that I do has to flow to the best it can, especially

      For picking out these three main components for my commercial, I will need to analyze the type of commercial I am making. First I will need to find the attitude of the commercial which could be angry, mood lifting, or pushy. Next will be the point or narrative of the commercial, such as what I am trying to show, prove, or release information about. Last would be making the sequence and timing of the commercial's visuals. This would be making sure the clips are long enough to get a point through nut not boring to the audience. I will also make sure that the chosen photos and videos flow well to the commercial. When it comes to the photos I pick, I will most likely want this media to be something of me. I will take the effort to make my own pictures to represent whatever the task is to use. If it were to come to something crazy like scaling a building and take a picture at the top I would find something online. But that also brings me to another precaution, copyright, I will ma

 Hello everyone, my name is David Ingber. I am 15 years old and have been living here in Florida for the past 7 and a half years. Born originally in Chicago illinois, raised around snow and in the cold weather and where nice warm weather comes for 2 months of the year. Once 2013 came around me and my parents moved here to South Florida, a place where the nicest weather of illinois was everyday. During my life here I have picked up many interests such as the beach, the gym, and cars. I try to get to the beach at least once a week. As for the gym, I workout for around 2 hours everyday (7 days per week). Here in south florida, you see a lot of nice things such as luxurious cars which I have picked up interest in. Some other things about me is that I really enjoy food. My favorite types of food is Italian food, I will always be ready to down a plate of chicken parm. I also really enjoy Asian food, I know that Asian food is a big category but I’m talking about sushi and some seafood and of
