AICE Media Studies

 Today was my first day of filming for my project. We went to the track which is our filming location. The weather was perfect outside. There was barely a cloud in the sky. It was hot but there was a nice breeze that helped with the filming. When we first started to film it felt awkward because it was a new experience for me. We then got the hang of it and it wasn't as awkward. I brought all the materials I needed for filming today. I wore gym shorts with a t-shirt and tennis shoes. I had my hair pulled back in a ponytail. I also brought a Celsius with me. I started with myself stretching and filming that with a tilt. I then filmed myself stretching and opening the can of celsius which i then took a sip of. This was a pan. I then recorded a tracking shot of me walking the track with the celsius in my hand. I took a sip of it then set it down and started to jog the track. I filmed this as a long shot. I then filmed myself completing a lap around the track. Where I then took another

 First Scene-  In the first scene I will film myself stretching with a Celsius can next to me. This will be filmed at the field that surrounds the track. This scene will be a close up in which we use a tilt to add emphasis and emotion to the scene. I wanted to include stretching to my commercial because I feel it is an important part of exercising and is also the first step to it.  Second Scene-  The second scene in my commercial is going to be a close up at an eye level angle. In this scene I am going to take a sip of Celsius while stretching. This is going to help demonstrate the effects Celsius can have on an athlete. This scene will then cut to me walking the track.  Third Scene- In the third scene I will then start to walk the track with a can of Celsius in my hand. I will take a sip of it once more and put the can back down. I will then begin to run the track. This is going to be a tracking shot.  Fourth Scene- In the fourth scene it will be a continuation of me running the track

I am going to wear athletic clothes. I will wear either athletic shorts or leggings with a tank top or t-shirt.

I have decided to do a commercial of the product Celsius Live Fit. celsius is an energy enhancer that works best while working out. In the commercials of the product the audience usually sees the actors and people taking part in physical activity such as yoga, football, weightlifting, working out in a gym, running and sports.  In the commercial they wear costumes like sports bras, tank tops, t-shirts, leggings, tennis shoes, and shorts.  the actors appearance in these commercials are usually fit, sweaty, and energized.  The props in these commercials usually consists of a celsius drink that the actor picks up and drinks out of. It also sometimes includes clothing with their brand logo printed on it.  the score through the commercials is usually calm at first then picks up when the actor takes a sip of celsius. the score makes the audience motivated.  In Celsius commercials they use high angles and low angles, to show athletes climbing stairs or lifting weights from an angle that better

 I have decided to create my commercial alone. I prefer to work individually on assignments. The reason behind this is I am accountable for my work and i don't have to worry about someone not submitting or doing their work on time. I also like having control over my project so that it can turn out the way I want it to. It is also easier because then I can do it on my time schedule and don't have to worry about someone being absent or busy. I've always found myself to be the individual type and work alone even when given the option to work together. I find it more peaceful. I also feel like i have accomplished more when working individually then with a group. I am most likely going to get help with filming from a friend in my class. I am going to go through the filmmaking process individually. I will establish an idea, create a storyboard, film, and edit. I have worked well both with groups and without groups in previous years. However, I find working alone is much more suit

Hi, my name is Taylor Lamont. I am fifteen and I am currently a sophomore at Fort Lauderdale High School. I am currently taking AICE Media Studies AS level. This class has always intrigued me and I was even more interested when my brother took it last year. The idea of film making and the process behind it is interesting and I wanted to learn the process myself. Some things about me are I play lacrosse for the school and a travel team. I've been playing since last year. I play attack and I scored my first goal last season. Now that we are back in school it has been easier to manage and maintain my grades. My favorite subjects i'm taking this year are anatomy and AICE Media Studies. In my free time I like to watch Netflix, hang out with friends, play with my dog, listen to music and play video games. My favorite genre of music is country but I will listen to anything. My favorite video games at the moment are Call of Duty, Minecraft, NBA 2k and Madden. My favorite shows are How
