 First scene: The scene will start with a tracking shot of someone walking to the beach. This will also be an over the shoulder type of shot. The person will be looking around finding a spot to set up their area. The clothing will be beach attire, with a bathing suit, towels, maybe a beach chair and what not. Our main prop will be a cooler filled with ice and Coca Colas. Second scene: The next scene will included the same person sitting at their already set up area looking out to the beach. This shot will be a medium long shot of the person sitting. In this scene they will look confuse as the see someone. They will stand up and the camera will not move as we change into our next scene.  Third scene: The shot will be positioned in a high angle but still being an over the shoulder shot. The first subject mentioned will be poking the second subject on the shore of the beach. In this scene the props needed will be a stick. The second subject will need to act distressed, tired, and most imp

 Props: The main prop we will be using is glass Coca Cola bottles, since that is what we will be producing. Some of the other props we will use are beach towels, beach chairs, a cooler with ice and Coke bottles, and bathing suits for our outfits. Costumes: Since our commercial in going to be based on the beach we will wear bathing suits. Maybe sunscreen, sunglasses, or a beach hat can be worn. As for the other subject they can wear swim trunks, makeup to show him being dirty or tired. Their hair can also be messed up to show that effect. Over all the first subject will seem put together as the second on will seem a mess.

Research: Commercial Conventions and Codes

 My partner and I will be doing a Coca-Cola commercial. Usually in these commercials the audience is given a story something emotional. They usually don't have a specific costume they all wear casual clothing, comfortable clothing. The props are always changed, but they are all to make it seem like a real life scenario, with the background having cars or stuff inside a house. The sets are really important in each of the commercials, they must match the story. A commercial about a family would be based at home or a park, each story has a specific set that gives more feeling. There is always acting in the commercials, to prove a story to people or make the audience feel good about the “happy ending.” Conventions and code: 1. At the end of each commercial the Coca-Cola logo is shown, it’s either a red circle with the wording of Coca-Cola in it, or a picture of a Coke bottle. But always with the word Coca-Cola in a cursive font.  2. After each story a clever quote about the story is s

 On this project I will be working with another student in my class. His name is Sean, we sit next to each other in class and we have helped each other with the work a few times. Since we have been helpful to each other, for the most part, we thought it would be a good idea to do this project together. Although if really focus I can make a commercial by myself, having a partner helps the process. Sometimes people have better ideas than you or similar ones. If I were to brain storm with someone else, in this case Sean,  we would both provide very different ideas. Sean has a completely different personality than me which I feel would be good for the commercial. We would be able to talk to more than one audience if we combine our ideas. He is also a very creative person while I am a very organized person. He would be able to throw his ideas everywhere and I would be able to put them together. Moral of the story we would make a great team for this project. It might be just two of us but th

 Hi, my name is Franshesca Leiva, I am a 16 years old. I am a junior in high school, one of the hardest years of high school. Which stresses me out a lot, so to help with that I like to involve myself with the school activities. Like supporting my friends in their sports, joining clubs, or volunteering for anything at the school. I am currently enrolled in a leadership class where I help plan school events like homecoming, prom, pep rallies, and spirit week. I took this class in 8th grade then took it again my sophomore year in high school. I honestly love it, I have met incredible people that are now my friends. I am always with them when we do events and sometimes we even hangout before or after it. They have brought me out of my comfort zone and have made me feel more relaxed. My whole life it's been about school, like my grades. I never was involved with school spirit or hanging out with friends. Now I know how to balance "work" and "fun." Even though I love
