Dog Collar Commercial


  

 I feel like one thing I could've changed about my commercial is the time spent on it. I think in total I spent 4 or 5 days, but I didn't come out with the commercial I expected. I didn't prioritized it and put enough effort in. I could've taken more shots outside and factored the bipolar weather into my shooting schedule, but I just got off tasks with my other assignments.  I should've stuck with my schedule instead of holding it off until the weekend off. This is probably what put me in such a tight schedule in the first place. I also should've done more research on camera angles and how to better show these angles with my phone. It was harder to keep the phone straight and properly show the correct angles while filming a dog. Especially because the dog was constantly moving around. For future projects I might have to invest in a tripod to make filming easier. I also should've taken into account my dogs personality. Next time I film a commercial I will definitely choose something that is not living, and is less of a flight risk. My dog made filming 10x harder because my product/brand was around her neck. In all though, this whole commercial was a big learning experience for me. I realized I should've changed my brand too late, so next time I just have to think smarter. I have to film longer, and be more productive in the time I have, and choose better actors. I need dependable people and I need to start giving myself more time to both film and edit so my commercial comes out decently next time. I ended up learning how to better pace myself and think outside of the box. I also learned how to adapt and change my plans quickly and fluently under pressure. I now have a new found respect for the whole filming business, I never truly realized how hard it was until I did this project.
