AICE Media Studies

 Today was the first day of filming our "Adidas" commercial. After completing our storyboard we gathered our props and costumes. Jade Walrave and I changed into our costumes and fixed our hair into "athletic styles" before joining our other groupmates. The actors, Jade Walrave, Ely Silverberg, Mya Hauser, and I headed out to our filming destination, the field. Once we arrived we began looking for a place to film our scenes. We knew we needed an area with grass in the center of the field, as well as the bleachers. After finding an area in the center of the field we checked to see how the lighting looked on camera. After taking a few test shots we referenced our storyboard and filmed some of our more simple scenes first. We began with filming the pan of Jade and I's outfits separately. We moved the camera from the bottom to the top on each of our outfits separately. Following this, we filmed the stare down which took a few tries before we could correct the emotion...

  My group is doing an Adidas commercial. In these commercials, the audience usually sees people exercising and completing physical activities such as working out, running, and doing sports. They wear outfits consisting of sportswear such as sports bras, loose-fitted shirts, branded clothes, and Adidas brand sneakers. Props include yoga mats, footballs, soccer balls, and water bottles. Their appearance is usually athletic build and sweat as they are working out during that moment. The score throughout the commercial usually consists of motivating music and lots of motivational speaking. Conventions and codes in Adidas commercials include the symbolic three stripes, added with an “Impossible is Nothing” slogan. This slogan sparks the media to help athletes achieve their goals, even the ones that seem impossible to start with. In the commercial, the props are always angled to show the three stripes to let the audience know that it is an Adidas commercial. This has become an all-aroun...

  For my commercial assignment, I decided to pair with Jade Walrave, Ely Silverberg, and Mya Hauser.  For this commercial, I wanted to choose some of my peers with who I knew I was comfortable working with and filming with. I met Ely and Mya last year during my general paper class and we often worked on many group projects together. We always would finish our projects on time and we worked great together as a team. `I also met Jade last year during AICE Testing and she sat in front of me. We ended up becoming friends and hanging out the whole summer. After reviewing our schedules we discovered we had AICE Media together. I knew we would work well together as we already got along with each other outside of school. Together our group will function well because each member has their own specialty and skill set. Ely is good at concepts and creating a layout and design for each scene as well as the production as a whole. Mya is better at scriptwriting and is great at relating the s...
