Filming blog

      Hey guys, so yesterday my group and I filmed our commercial and it was so much fun! After learning all the stuff about the camera and the camera angles we put our new skills to use. There were a lot of steps to prep for our filming of the commercial. The first step was to pick out what we wanted to sell in our commercial, and we had to do some research about the product and see how we could advertise it. After we picked our product we made a plan of what our commercial was going to look like. We made to plans just in case the first one didn’t go well. After we planned everything out we learned about to to use the cameras and the equipment. This part was my favorite because I love learning about cameras. Then we planned out what makeup and costumes we were going to wear during the film. After all that was done we finally started filming.
      I honestly thought filming was going to be really stressful and kinda hard at first. I thought it was going to be stressful because I didn’t know if we were going to have enough time to film everything. Or if we were going to forget a prop or a line, but once we got into our makeup and costumes and stuff it was really fun. During the filming my group and I couldn’t stop laughing at each other because everything was just so funny. I was dressed like a clown so people were laughing at me and honestly I don’t blame them. Filming went by very smoothly, everything was really good. We got done filming kinda early so we had plenty of time to take my clown makeup off and start dumping our footage. After the filming I felt really good about it. My group and I thought that it had the perfect amount of comedy and seriousness in it. So overall after filming I felt very confident about it.
      During filming my group and I all had different parts. My part was to act like Ronald McDonald the clown. I acted in the commercial and it was super fun. I really liked dressing up as a clown. Alex also acted in the commercial. Her role was the girl Ronald McDonald gave the food to. Alex was a really good actress in this. Morgan was the camera girl. She filmed everything and she was so good at it. She was really good at getting all the angles. Jake was the director, he told everyone what to do and he did amazing! Overall it was an amazing experience and I’m so happy we did this.
