 Due to school being canceled because of the unforeseeable Hurricane Ian, my partner and I decided it was safest to stay home while the storm passed over us. With that being said, we still took time to set up and charge our Switches. We filmed our first two scenes individually, and we sent pictures to agree on camera placement and lighting. We were able to document this in a series of photos. We cleaned our designated filming areas, wore the clothes we aforementioned, and set our phones on a stable place to film. In order to choose between multiple shots, we did different takes that were each about five seconds. We later video called each other to discuss the best possible shot for the first two scenes. Since music would later be placed over the scenes (and therefore the entire commercial) it didn't matter if there was diegetic sound in the scenes. This could include sounds of doors opening and closing, animals walking, or ruffling. This is the first scene, and I am playing Animal Crossing on the switch. I am filming with my phone which is being held up by a ring light.
