Storyboard Blog

 

 





The storyboard is an easy way for me to create pictures of what I want my shots to individually look like. From the beginning of my commercial to the end I can plan each individual shot and that includes the type of shot or action and props needed. My commercial will be made up of majority close up shots of the cleats. However, include pan shots of the field and point of view shots. To break down my storyboard I will go individually describing my view of the shot, props needed, and camera angle. 

Scene one consists of majority editing. I mentioned on my about me blog I play for the varsity softball team and majority of the players play in New Balance cleats. The opening scene with be a ton of clips of the teammates playing and some of me with the NB (New Balance) logo fading on the screen. The clips I have collected from my teammates and got the logo from the internet. 

Scene two is a behind the actor shot of me carrying my softball bag wearing my uniform towards the field. The field is not in view however this will help the viewer understand that the commercial has to do with a sport. The viewer can then interrupt that I'm heading to a sport. That sport is most likely a game due to the actor wearing a uniform. 

Scene three will be a span shot of the field from standing at home plate. 


Scene four is a point of view shot of me tying my cleats laces, while sitting in the dugout. 

Scene five reverts back to a close up shot of me doing ladder drills.  There will be two different shots filmed at once to show the cleats from different angles. 

Scene six remains a close up, however shows a front and side angle of the actor running the bases. 

Scene seven switches to the outfield and remains a close up of a fielding shot. This shows the ball rolling into my glove, however the cleats are in the background. 

Scene eight is going to the be main shot of the commercial. It consist of a close up of a sliding shot, however two angles of the shot will be taken. In editing the shots with be switched quickly to make an epic shot. 

The final scene will be a shot taken from a overhead point of view of two bats, softballs and the cleats with the New Balance logo edited in and " Fearlessly Independent Since 1906."

Change of Plans

As the title states, there has been a change of plans in terms of the product of my final task.  I will have to cut the total amount of script to a minimum.  I have changed my aspect of what I want to create and I am leaning more towards a euphoria aspect. In euphoria contains flashbacks with a monotone voiceover. According to an article written about the producer's opinion of the show, " The look and feel of the show are as superheated as adolescence itself. The colors are bold, the score and needle-drop songs are loud, and the camera rarely sits still when it can glide, swoop whip-pan, or spiral. Every episode starts with a speedy prologue outlining the backstory of a recurring character shot, cut, and scored like a “previously on” recap of someone’s life. (Levinson wrote all eight episodes in the first season and directed five.) The medium-size town in which the tale is set was mainly built from scratch, the better to allow for expressionistic lighting and acrobatic vi...

Title Design Research: Thriller 30 days of Night

  1.      How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which ones? Ni- Nine Titles were displayed in the opening sequence of 30 days of Night. Stated in the article on watch the titles," The audience is confronted with a sequence of highly disquieting images that cross-dissolve or fade to black. Details of torn and tainted photographs, northern lights, shadows, a bloody tooth embedded in a thick layer of ice and references to the Alaskan wintercape. Brian Reitzell‘s haunting score greatly enhances the discomforting atmosphere." The titles in this opening sequence are simple in all white, however in all capitial letters to state the importantance. I highly like the simple design of the titles and the design of the 30 Days of Night title.  2.      What connotations do the images carry?  - The images carry t he discomforting atmosphere with  Details of torn and tainted photographs, northern lights, shado...

Commercial Group Blog

                  I have come to the decision to create my commercial alone. On short assignments such as the commercial, I prefer to work alone. I have found when you have a group on individuals on an assignment like this one, there is too many ideas and voices to be represented. Another reason I choose to work alone is so I am accountable for my own work. This eliminates the stress of having to make sure everyone submits and does their part of the assignment. I feel when I work alone, I'm the one to have the control over the assignment and can raise the standards. My exceptions for projects is set really high and working with people that don't match my work ethic and standards adds more work for me then what's needed. My personality matches with working alone. I'm an over-achiever and like to challenge myself to the best work I can turn in. In addition, I'm very creative and do not like to turn in the average projects or assignme...
