Creative Critical Reflection

  1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?  

My Gatorade product uses conventions to hydrate and refuel Athletes and individuals who are actively working out or performing high-energy activities so they can reach that next level. I don't think my product is in that category for being involved in social groups.











2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text? 

My product will influence people to want to drink it to be refuelled and re-energized which will make them 120% more harder while they’re doing tiring activities. This will be distributed through ad’s, billboards, posters, blimps, etc.












  1. How did your production skills develop throughout this project? 


This project really just made me have to think out of the box and be creative in the way I wanted it to be. I knew that doing something little wouldn’t be enough to satisfy me so I had to structure the commercial with every scene having a meaning and purpose to get the best results possible.













4. How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project? 


I watched Gatorade commercials to see how an original ad for them would be like, which made me utilize my Iphone 13 to film the scenes at 4k and finally edit through Imovie.

“The Kill” Review changes

 When I think back on the film we made, I'm pleased with it. Making it was the most enjoyable experience I've ever had. It was a lot of fun gathering supplies and equipment for it. For the gruesome scene when the murder occurred, I had to go to Walmart and buy a knife and ketchup. People at the store thought I was insane because a knife and a bottle of ketchup are an unusual combination of items to purchase. I had to explain to those people that it was for a movie, and once they realized the overall picture, they were no longer interested. In the spring, my partner Quincy Esta had a lot going on in his life from Track and Field season to Aice coursework, which took a mental toll on him and continues to do so. We simply needed to pick a date and time that worked for both of us so that we could get this film arranged and completed within the time frame allotted. We had to postpone filming dates due to weather and rehearsals at first, but the good news is that we made it work. We ...

Thee Music Video

Image
  As of December 12 Sunday, the music video is finally completed. Me and my partner has finalized all the videos  recorded and transform all of them into one big video. The song chosen was a Hip Hop song made by Bow Wow called “Basketball”. This video includes clips of dribbling, dancing and shooting which is the main components of basketball as well as an music video. The editing app chosen to edit this video was iMovie. iMovie is a great app that allows users to create almost whatever they want to form the video they dreamed of and worked for. It took me 30 min to edit everything and put everything i wanted on there and the right time slots. The clips I inserted all correlate to what I put on the storyboard which was made November 18th in class. It was hard to put the song on the video thru iMovie because of the copyright issue. When I seen this happen, I called my sister who is familiar with the system so she could help me put the song on there. We had to download another a...

Editing film process

Image
After the conclusion of me filming the project, it was finally time to edit it. I opened up my ipad scrolled down my gallery to like all of the takes that we too from the park so that i can put it all together. After I chose between all of the videos, I asked my partner which platform was the best to put the scenes together and make a video. In about 20 minutes he responded and suggested that iMovie would be the better option because of all the things they have on their app to utilize. Another reason was because we used the app to do our other project and it came out perfectly so its only right to use it again. Once we confirmed to use iMovie, I opened the app and a couple of options popped up about what i wanted to make. The options were to make a movie or trailer and i chose to create a trailer first. The reason why was because we wanted the opening to the film to be like a roundup to stir the minds of the individuals watching it so that they can become curious and eager to see the r...
