  Creative Critical Reflection 1.          How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? Our product uses conventions, by using things such as kid-like stereotypes. Including things like messy kid’s drawings and skipping down a hall gives it the fun atmosphere that is meant to attract a younger audience. Most of these stereotypes are found in these types of commercials, including most Crayola commercials. Our product is not only meant to represent younger audiences, but those with creative mindsets and the ambition to express themselves. It was meant to send the message of being inclusive to those with or without artistic ability. By looking at most Crayola commercials and putting ours side by side, you can definitely see similar assets and conventions used all throughout. It isn’t something that’s meant to be sleek and organized, but messy and adventurous. Free-spirited individuals, kids or not, o...

That's a Wrap!

    Today was FINALLY our last day of fliming. Today was a school day, and with our group having busy schedules, it was the only day we could all take the time to film before the project was due. My group and I all rode to Siena's house for filming together. After arriving, I took a small break before having to get ready to film. After I finished, I helped to plan every scene and it's layout out with my group memebers. It was decided that the scene to be filmed first was the sleepover scene, one of the last scenes in the video. Kaitlyn, Camille, and Siena got dressed in pajamas and brought pillows and blankets to the living room.

I filmed the first shot, which took a few tries, mainly due to Siena's dog getting in the way a lot of the time. I then filmed the next shot, which showed the three girls sitting on the couch and enjoying snacks. I filmed one last...

Going to Finish Editing Over The Weekend

    In class today, we were able to use some time to work on editing our video. One of our partners, Kaitlyn, was unfortunately absent. She was getting surgery done, so we didn't expect to hear from her today for feedback. This did make it a slower process, but luckily we weren't really put too far behind. Although we didn't finish, we got a good amount done. Right now, we (more so me than anyone, as I am the editor) are working on getting the clips on beat with the music. We want it to sound as smooth as possible, and we want the vidoes to flow with the music. We decided against any fancy transitions, and are just having the scenes cut from one to the other. I can say with confidence that the commercial is coming out exactly how I pictured it. I was kind of scared that it wasnt going to come out looking the way we wanted, but it looks great so far! And I'm sure it'll look ten times better once we finish it. For future projects, I would love to work with Camille and...
