Commercial Blog- Vinyl Store

 This is the final commercial that the group and I made. I had a lot of fun filing this commercial. This commercial and the process of making it has taught me a lot about film. I cant wait to make the next production. Enjoy the commercial and if you are ever in fort lauderdale visit Vinyl Destination!

 We still haven't been able to film the next part of our commercial. We will try to film it over the weekend if not this weekend then next. We are all still trying to figure out what clips from the vinyl store to use. Juliana said she was going to edit and I will help her with it. We will try our best to film this weekend.

 We didn't get to film ever since the last time we filmed. Juliana went out of town for the weekend and me and George had marching band practice Saturday. On Sunday we all have our own things to do so couldn't film that day. During the time we didn't film we gave the record to the person with the record player. I almost lost the record because I left it in one of my classes. Luckily the record was still there the next day I went to class and no one took it or touched it. The record is an album of The Beatles Revolver.

The others had trouble getting there on time due to their parents having things to do. We began filming around 12:30 and there was no one in the store. Because there was no one in the store it made it easier for us to film. We started off trying to copy the storyboard we had by recording our first shot. Our first shot was of someone walking into the store. George recorded while Juliana walked into the store and me and Jocelyn were waiting. My job was to be in a few of the shots we had to film and I also pitched in some ideas for us to do in the commercial that weren't exactly in the storyboard. I also tried filming but it didn't go to well so we decided to let George keep fi

 Props Since our commercial will be based on a record store, the central prop for our commercial will be vinyl, or anything that can be normally found within a record store, such as turn tables, CDs, and other music related items. Our other props may consist of record player(s), merchandise, and band posters. Costumes When the actors are in the scene, our costumes will consist of old-school, retro clothing, from around the 1960s-1980s. This sort of clothing consists of colorful clothes, mostly bright colors. Additionally, the clothing will be very vintage-like, old-fashioned. Since we want to show a time-lapse from those times to modern times, we will also use modern clothing, or what we know as everyday clothing. Everyday clothes may include a casual look, such as jeans and a T-shirt, or jeans in a hoodie; what we would expect to see every day when walking around school or the store. The hard part will be obtaining the 60s-80s clothing style, which in that case we will use tie-dyed sh
