Storyboard Blog (A Sudden Change in Topic)

Image
      For my storyboard, I had to improvise and change the topic on what I would be filming.  Therefore, I changed my topic to Serato, a DJ platform for artists and deejays, containing my very own DDJ-SB3 system.     For the first shot, I want to do a somewhat "introduction" of the product. Like the name of it, the various amounts of ports, etc. This will be more of a basic start towards the rest of the video.     The second shot will have the product under usage, which will include mixing, setting tempo, and displaying the various features.     The third shot will contain its compatible programs and devices, as well as the features within those said programs.     The fourth shot will have more shots of mixing and extra tips/tricks towards the product.     The fifth shot will have the price of the product and locations to purchase it, and the last shot will disclose the company and their slogan.     I am aiming for each slide to be about 5 seconds long.

Planning Blog: Chevrolet Commercial

 With the research being done on other Chevrolet commercials, the planning phase can commence. Props: -Any vehicle apart of the Chevrolet brand, including the Silverado -(optional) Towing/Bed Load (wood, trailer, etc.) The Schedule (if weather/timing is good): Planning: 10/24-10/25 Storyboard: 10/26 Filming: 10/26-10/30 Editing: 10/27-10/30 Location: I'm hoping that Florida weather doesn't curse me, but I'm planning on this location near the Fort Lauderdale Airport that has a patch of dirt and an empty side road. This will be the best for filming longer shots and more off-road based scenes. Backup: If I can't for any reason I can't get a good shot or I get rained out, I might either have to change topic or do the filming at my friends house.

 For my commercial, I am planning to have a Chevrolet commercial on their truck, the Silverado. In a majority of these commercials, they boast on safety, towing capacity, and other truck related activities (off-road capability, engines, suspension, etc). Scenes include: off-roading shots, towing heavy loads, space capability, features the truck may have, etc. Props consist of their own trucks, accessories related to the environment the scene is shot at, towing related props, and more. The nature of the commercials is to show how the Silverado is a better choice of a truck than other competitors (like the Ford F-Series and Dodge's Ram trucks). The scenes can make it seem as if the truck can take the pressure of multiple environments. 1. Chevrolet in a majority of their commercials will have their logo and their slogan "Find New Roads" placed on the end of every commercial. This slogan is basically to entice viewers to find new adventures with their vehicle fleet. 2. In the
