 Props: To put together the feeling of a pre-teen trying to discover who she is, I will use lip gloss, mascara, dolls, stuffed animals, a phone

Costume: Aligning with the respected characters and their personalities/what they discover, the wardrobe will consist of low-rise jeans, t-shirts, glasses, a suit blazer, a tank top, a scrunchie, jewelry accessories, and sneakers.

Schedule:

03/14/23- the third day of filming, will consist of all scenes not including dialogue

03/20/23- I will begin cleaning up individual takes that I know I will use

03/22/23- I will edit together all the scenes that will be used in the final video

03/24/23- I will record the voiceover wherever is needed in the video

03/28/23- I will use the rest of the time to edit, re-shoot, and overall refine my video

Location List: My home, the mall, and the park.

Backup Plan: In the event that the weather is not preferable for the scenes in the park, I will instead use a homemade backdrop and set it up in my room. I would also have to include multiple other props like a dresser, a sheet, and a pillow.

  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...

Props:  In alliance with the free-spirited professional music video, I will be using a car as a prop, my brother's bongos and keyboard, and maybe my guitar. Costume:  I will look through my own wardrobe to get inspiration for the video. Around two weeks ago at school, there was a throwback Thursday-themed spirit day and I so happened to have decided to be the 80s. If I decide to change my prior wardrobe a bit, it will probably be small changes like accessories and bigger hair. Schedule:   11/17/22- the storyboard will be finished, and I will have a clearer vision of what to plan for. 11/22/22- a set list is made, travel arrangments are set, and all needed props are packed 11/26/22- first day of filming, will consist of the lip-synching portions of the video 11/28/22- second day of filming, I will film car scenes and potentially planes taking off. If I cannot get a shot of planes flying, my next best option would be to get any type of animal in its natural state. 11/29/22-...

Title Research: Back to the Future

As shown in the Art of the Title website, in this comedy the title is one of the first things to be shown. In the opening sequence, we are given a panning shot of Doc's working space. This allows us to look into the mind of the wacky professor. We also get a bit of foreshadowing when the TV shows that plutonium has been stolen, which is later revealed that Doc stole it. These images perpetuate that Doc is very disorganized and crazy, showing his seemingly unnecessary inventions along with his enormous stereo system. The exaggeration of the setting makes it humorous for the audience since no actual scientists' lab is this messy or blown out of proportion. The panning motion aids in the comedy because it continuously shows what is in Doc's house and how weird it all is.
