Today,  my groupmates and I went out recording our commercial for the first time .  As we put it  in   our storyboard our f irst scene was outside in the track .  As we were walking out  onto  the  track,  we noticed that by the way I was dressed I would be the one  on  the scene .   Since we are doing the apple watch as the product, we’re advertising in our commercial we thought  that a running scene showing off the apple  watches  ability to record  the  users  heart rate was a good idea .  So that’s what we eventually did .  We first started off using  a   eye level shot where it showed me getting ready to go for a run .  After that we got a  close up  where the camera was focused on the watch as I  lined  up to run .   And eventually followed it up by doing a tracking shot of me running away .   Finally  to finish up the scene  we did a shot where I came running back “done” with the run and looked back at my watch to check my heart rate .   The second scene we shot was inside .  We

   Props Being that our commercial is an Apple Watch commercial, our main prop will be the Apple Watch. However we will also have different color Apple Watch bands as well as props aswell Costumes We have came up with these costumes to flow with the message we are trying to portray of the apple watch within that scene. Therefore, two of us will be exempliying the athletics perks of the Apple Watch, by wearing athletic clothing, to show the health and workout benefits of the watch. Another scene will include one of us wearing a really nice outfit, which may include, but is not limited to a nice shirt, jeans and some nice shows. This will help show the customization part of the watch and how stylist it can be and easy access it can. Basically proving the theory "a phone on your wrist".  Schedule  September 23rd:  Our group researched the codes and conventions of Apple Watch commercials  September 24th:  Our group started to plan the different props we are going to use, the cost

  My partners and I are doing are going an Apple Watch commercial. From the commercials we've seen, they are very technological and sophisticated, however they provide important information on their product in a very fun and interesting way.  1. They include the product in different colors and different people portraying the use of the product  2. They are in a lot of different locations, which assists in the information they are trying to provide  3. Some are also very technologically advanced, where they are strictly focused on the watch itself without any progressive acts of people to bring in the whole commercial  4. All of their fits usually fit the theme in which the commercial is going into, everything matches the scenes  5. Some angles used in the videos were low angles and dutch angles. These add a lot to the commericial that gives a more in depth and personal connection and also achieve a better understanding with he commercial  6. Theres a lot of panning movement involve

My group consist of two members Alejandro and myself. We are both hardworking and responsible students at Fort Lauderdale high. We both take AICE and AP classes and have plans for our future. Alejandro is well mannered student and also a good person. Alejandro also likes to play a lot of videogames such as 2k and Madden. Alejandro also is a sneaker-head who is crazy about these new jordans that just dropped. Alejandro and I think we will work well together.  I've known Alejandro since middle school. He was always upbeat and energetic. He brought fun and excitement everywhere he went. Alejandro also likes to watch basketball, ever since he was a kid he was a heat fan. Alejandro remembers watching a finals heat game and seeing Lebron win the championship and starting to love watching basketball. Alejandro has been nothing but a good friend for the past 6 years and I'm happy that he's one of my groupmates for this project. Overall we're very excited to be starting this mus

 My name is Pedro Ribeiro, I'm a student here at Fort Lauderdale high. I'm 16 years old and this is my first year taking media studies. So far this has been one of my favorite electives this year. I really like the teachers, they both understand what a student cares about and what it's like from a students shoes. Although they both have strong and loud voices, you can tell they really care for us and just want us to pass at the end of the course. I don't have many consistent hobbies. I was boxing for over a year but it all got too repetitive for me so I ended up stop going. School is now holding soccer tryouts so hopefully I'm able to make it in. All my friends have said that it is pretty easy to get in this year so it looks like school soccer will be my next hobby. I live with my mom, sister, and step-dad, we've been living together for about 6 years now. My dad lives far West in California so I don't get to visit him regularly. I have 6 dogs right now but
