God Bless The Rules of The School

      So first day of filming was HORRIBLE. When I mean horrible, I mean horrible. So apparently it is illegal to ride my longboard for my ad. So my entire schedule was just thrown off of a cliff at that point. So I decided to take the option to have a part that transitions from the board by itself to me. This will take a while. So while recording the staff kept coming to me and seeing what I was doing. If it was illegal why would I do it, that makes no sense. I still kept getting those reminders. So much that I actually tried to record on the track. Even thought that it is hard to make the long board turn, I finally got good video of it. And before the track I got a high angle of the board and the part that I transition to me at the Park near me. This I would say is the hardest project that I have ever done. The complexity of one person make me look like a clown trying to carrying all my things in my pocket. I'm exhausted after that because I can finally record and finish up my pr

The Start of the process

      So to start off with the... First Scene: So near the hallway in the school, I can swerve in and out of the hallway with the name of the brand on top of my head until I either run over the phone, hit the tripod, or hop of.  Second Scene: I will ride through out the little park area at the end of the hallway. With that path I could make different shots. First a long take of me passing by. Then a close of of my face with the camera flashing with my face and the board.  Third Scene: Will have a close out for 5 second of the board wheels moving. Also with that I can have a 360 all around with the tripod or have the tripod on the board while its moving.  Fourth scene: I want this scene to look like different security cameras are recording me. I can add the different security camera static. I have to do this near the bus loop because I also want a shot through the fence. Fifth  Scene: This is the most simple showing my phone at a pivot riding in to the track area. The one thing I need t

ADS (2 in particular)

AD #1 The Hermosa Ad So I started looking to to electric longboard ads. I see that they have a person explaining the longboard and the trials and errors they had to overcome to over come. They also mainly show the board in its action ridging along the pavement. So I started to thing about the angles I should mainly use. They used transitions to section off what they show and for you to expect. They also use a lot of lo-fi music to show that you can have a nice ride on it.   AD #2 The Boosted ad So they start with the brand going through a underpass with lout wind and fast passed music playing. Next scene they are going into the woods and showing you can bring it anywhere They have low angles and high angles. They had wind blowing on the shirt and the transitions are nice and clean. The they have people creating the board really fast passed and instant. Then they show 2 people passing trough a parking lot with all the car lights on and It looks pretty sick. If I were looking at the ad t

The biggest problem I have to overcome

       Welcome back. I see you are liking my blog. YOU SHOULDNT. Anyway I'm really contemplating join this class rn. I'm very anti social, like I will only talk to people if they strike up a conversation I find interest in. So I guess I'm pulling a solo act. "Me, myself, and I, Solo ride until I die, 'cause I got me for life"- GEasy- Me, Myself, and I. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGrLb6W5YOM. So now I will have the most trouble with my solo act. So I'm thinking, there are 3 ways to approach this.  1. The simple way. Using the tipod to record different ways and shots.  2. The "easier way". Change my ad. 3. HARD. By this I mean take the 2 days of recording .and put my 100% into it. I just remembered. The longboard, the evil, the cause of my hate for it. Recently I fell off my long board and a rock cut my knee open. Even if it was a month ago, I live to forget. Now everything I need 1. Drip. Have to look nice. I'm thinking a hoodie and Sweat

     Hello, it is I Kameron. Well... I have been having trouble with my project so far. I've been thinking about working with a ad. So many brands to choose from, its really  difficult. I think Gatorade or something more challenging. I'm pretty sure 85% of the class is on the same track as "people are gunna do more Gatorade aid" or "I really think it is too easy". Then it came to me, the most beautiful, most pea  brain decision I will make. A ELECTRIC LONGBOARD AD!!! Now the downside... PARENTS. My mom would say if it is for work then yeah you an bring it. But my dad. He is the big decider of the house. Also my rat nosed sister Lauren(12th Grade). If I can get my longboard to school, It would be perfect. I already own a tripod and have experience editing for my friend so I think I'm ready for the upcoming challenge. Welp, here comes problem number 2. Where do i put my longboard during my periods. I don't want to leave it in that area where they put t
