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.
