Production Blog Overall

 Overall, the entire commercial is basically done. I’ve reviewed the commercial with my group mates and have even seen the commercials of my other classmates. I can admit, our commercial could have been better, but I don’t think it is bad for a first production effort. Sure there could have been things we could’ve done better, but I feel as though this was a necessary step in the learning process. By seeing how this commercial has done, and how it has came out overall, it has helped me develop important skills that I will be able to use towards other production efforts in the future. The group I worked with was pretty good, I liked everyone I worked with and everyone did their part. It was tough splitting up the larger group we had at the start, but now, I am glad we made the decisions we did. I see myself working with my group mates for future projects, as we have built a stronger relationship with each other and know how to work with each others schedules. The commercial still isn’t finished, and there do need to be some touch ups made. For one, we want to switch out the sound, since we think we can find one that’s a better fit.  We also do some more editing for the commercial, to make it a little bit better. I’m also thinking about going back and touching up the color grading. It could do with some brighter tones or a little less emphasis on the whites and shadows. All in all though, the commercial is practically done, and I must say it was definently a fun experience. Learning how to edit, out together clips, and film all made the process worth while. It was also fun learning as a team, and trying new things as we went along. I cant wait to begin our next project, and start brainstorming on how we can do better than before. That’s the goal for the next project, be better than the last one in every way possible. I want to see real growth in my work this year, and feel as though I will be able to see that growth if I stick to it. I can’t wait to work on another project with my group mates once more!

Production Blog Editing Software CapCut FT

In the past, my group and I have always used Cap Cut as our main source of editing. When it came time to start editing, we knew we were going to use Cap Cut . There had been a problem when we first started, however, as I've mentioned in past blogs . The US was going to ban Cap Cut , and they did. Use of Cap Cut in America was banned for around a week which frightened my group. Luckily, we still had not begun editing, so this was not a stopping point. My group and I just chose to use Cap Cut because it is the easiest and most diverse software there is for free . For one, the software's import and export features made it super easy to put in the clips and audio we needed. For the clips, all we had to do was drag the files from our File Explorer into the app. The clips were then put into CapCuts “library ”, And we're made easy to browse through. The same process happened with the audio. We would import it using MP3 from whatever website we found the copyright free a...

CCR Commercial

  Creative Critical Reflection   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?   T he product which I used, Powerade, followed most of the traditional conventions of its past commercials, but also made sure to challenge some of them. The norm for the conventions for a sports drink commercial like P owerade would be fast jump cuts, inspirational music, quick paced movements, and sweating. While my group and I’s commercial does follow most  of the conventions, it also challenges some and goes against the grain of normal conventions of a sports drink commercial . The commercial did not include inspirational music, instead it used pop music from popular artist Bon Jovi ; it also did not put emphasis on the color of the Powerade drink like other commerc ials do .   My commercial did use jump cuts, an d sweating, and showed athletic movements, which did follow th e norm for the conventions , making...
