My group and I finally started to film our commercial . We filmed for about one hour the first day we filmed. We had a lot of delay to multiple problems so we couldn't get a lot of stuff done. One of the main problems was that one of the actors in our commercial had a limited amount of time to be with us to do his part of the commercial. His teacher really needed him to be in class so we had only about 15 minutes with him. We were really struggling to figure out how to fix the issue but then I came up with a solution. To accommodate him, we filmed his part first so that we can have his part of the commercial included. We also filmed our sixth scene before we filmed the second, third, and fourth scene so that he can be in the commercial due to his time constraint. Another problem we had was with the costumes. Everyone came dressed up in their costumes and we had all the props that we used in our commercial at school already.  We did run into a problem due to forgetting to come in his costume for the commercial. One of our subjects forgot their costume attire at home and didn't remember until they had already left home. The subject helped us fix the problem. We fixed it by finding extra backup clothes that were already on campus and they matched the costumes we wanted. The costume looked a little large on the body of the subject but we had to make due with what we had. There were also problems with some of the audio. It was very windy this day we tried to film. So, we had to speak more loud than usual when filming. Another problem we ran into was the set where we were filming because the set where we planned to film one of the scenes looked really dirty. We didn't get to finish everything that day so lets hope we finish next time.

WELCOME BACK TO MY BLOG!

Hello everyone, it’s Marvin and I know it’s been a while but WELCOME BACK TO MY BLOG! Last time you saw me I was a newbie to the media world but so much has changed. Now I’m in A level media and I completed my AICE diploma. But, even though I completed my diploma I still decided to continue taking some AICE classes because I just fell in love with them , for example media. I’m now a junior and next year I’m going to be a senior and I have to start applying for college. It’s pretty scare how fast life is moving because when people told me high school went fast, I didn’t believe it. It felt like I was just a freshman yesterday sitting in AICE General Paper and marine science and global perspectives. Now , I’m in two a level courses and taking AP classes on top of that. But since I’ve finished AICE, I would say my hardest class I took would be AICE European History. I really thought I wouldn’t pass the exam but when I got my score back I almost burst into tears because that was the last r...

 Production Blog Welcome back everyone! We finally finished filming our commercial. Our group worked so well together when filming the commercial and we all contributed towards the direction the commercial took. When we were filming, we kept thinking very hard about the shots and my group and I were very mindful to use different types of shots when we were filming so we can have a variety. When filming some of our shots on this day, there were some problems where some of the specific scenes did not look natural. One example of this was our 3rd scene. In this scene, one of our subjects was fake sleeping and it did not look as real as possible and in order to fix this problem, my group and I did multiple shots of the scenes and chose the best ones. For our second scene, we had arranged the set properly. We had people sit in certain places,  stand in certain places , and look in a specific direction when talking. For all our scenes, we had our subjects have some input as to how w...

Group Blog

 Hello everyone and thank you for finding my group blog for my music video. I had a group for my commercial which was composed of Mya, Kyra, and I. But, for this project our group has gotten smaller and is now composed of just Mya and I. Kyra decided she wanted to work with a new group this time which we fully respect and we both still are great friends with Kyra. I chose to continue working with Mya because of her work ethic. Mya is great when it comes to group project because she gets stuff done. When we did our commercial, Mya would always remind Kyra and I in a group chat when we had due dates for the commercials. Mya would also always get her part of the project done within enough time for the rest of us to review it and make any changes if we needed to but there were always hardly any changed needed to be made. Another reason I decided to work with Mya again was because of her leadership when filming. When we were filming our commercial Mya would take charge without taking ov...
