Filming and Editing blog

This is my first official filming and planning blog. Twice a week i will be posting a new one with an update on how amazing our filming process is. To the best of my ability i will strive to include as much information in them as i possibly can. This will help me keep track of everything going on and help me when Im struggling to remember things. Sadly, no filming has taken place as of yet. Filming did not take place today due to many reasons. The main one being we have completely different schedules. One of our partners, Eric, works at a resturant and we have to plan our filming time around his days off. I recently started working and am starting my job today, so doing anything film related wouldn't have been possible. Mya and Keren couldn't have started filming by themselves due to them having all their scenes together and having no one to help them record. That would also add an extra day to our filming schedule. That would effect our other blogs and cause us to change a few things that would just end up making our process longer. Without the four of us in the same place at the same time nothing can properly be done. We are also waiting for the confirmation on our music. We emailed someone about it a few days ago and cant wait to hear their response. If confirmed we will have a song to help give our film more suspense and meaning. Hopefully we'll get confirmation on it soon and be able to edit it in. In all though we're still on schedule and hopefully in the next 3 weeks our entire film will be ready to publish. We will start filming on Sunday, March 7th. This will be very exciting and i cant wait to share everything on my blog. :)

Production Blog- filming day

 This blog will go over our first filming day which was on March 7th. To start off the morning i had to get up at 8:30 so i could reach Kerens house by 10 o'clock. Even with this extremely early wakeup call though i still arrived 20 minutes late. Upon arrival i realized that only me and Eric were the only ones who arrived, Mya was missing. Mya let us know that our amazon package didn't arrive at our house yet, and we needed it to film since it had our camera lenses. She said if it wasn't there soon she would start driving around to different stores in hope of finding one similar. After an hour of prepping to film with Mya still not arriving Kerens mom decided that Mya should just start coming over to the house while we drive two minutes away to the Best Buy to see if it was there. While it wasn't there we did find something similar we could use and decided that dividing the bill three ways was just something we would have to end up doing. By the time Mya arrived we had ...

  1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? My commercial challenged conventions by exaggerating them throughout the video. Things such as theme, characters, plotlines, and mood are all used to help make a fun and family friendly atmosphere commercial. For example, including clips of my dog at the different points of the day gave the commercial a more home vlog vibe, which is what a lot of families like to do. My video helps to talk mostly animal lovers and families. It also addresses issues about finding the perfect dog collar, one that won't irritate her or other animals.   2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text? My product engages with the audience by talking directly to them throughout the entire video. This is shown by me putting words on the screen each time a new clip started. And using words such as “your” so the person knows I'm talking directl...
