Storyboard

  In the first box we drew a woman pulling a sticky note from the camera and you can see her write a note and stick it in a lunch box.     In the second box the camera angle is over the shoulder mixed with "gods view" and we see her open the lunch box with the note, the camera doesn't show what the note says but it skips to her reaction of the note which is a smile.     In the third box, a sad kid is walking and she hands the same note to him which makes him smile as well.     next you can see him walking to a board and stick the same note onto it however, the message that is written on it is still unseen by the camera.     Last, the boy walks away from the board and the note is finally revealed with the words "spread joy" hence the same note going around making people smile.

  PROPS: Since our group decided on a Post-it Note commercial, we wont need many props, but the things we will need are; sticky notes, a pen, a lunchbox, and maybe a book.     COSTUMES: Our commercial doesn't have anything to do with athletic wear or fancy clothes. we will just need our regular everyday outfits  The commercial won't be focused on an individual at all times so we might have one or two actresses.     SCHEDULE: on 09/23/21: our group will establish props, costumes, filming location, research, and back-up plan. on 09/27/21: our group will create our story board and discuss it. on 09/29/21: our group will create the scenes for our 30 second commercial on 09/31/21: our group will edit and do final touches to the commercial.     LOCATION LIST:     One of our locations will be the court yard. In this location we will have our actress pull out a Post-it Note out of her lunch box like it is from her mom. We will also have someone hand a note to someone give the same note

       My group and I decided to make our commercial about Post-it Notes. Based on multiple commercials we've seen, one specific clip that was shared between many of the commercials was a wall full of sticky notes. Something else we usually saw was a clip of people writing on the sticky notes and clips of them removing it from the pad.      The people in the commercials are usually wearing casual attire, no specific types of clothes are worn by the actors.      The props shared throughout all of the different commercials include a Post-it notepad, and something used to write on the sticky notes, which most of the time are pens. The general appearance of the people in the commercials is professional and organized. The commercials are usually regularly paced, nothing is rushed and everything seems to be in control and organized. This also promotes that customers will be more organized with the help of using Post-its.      The commercials usually include the company name, "Post-i

  In this project, I decided to work with three of my closest friends in my class.  I chose to work with them for many reasons.  They are all productive, responsible, and also very creative.  My teammates are Mila (who I have known since 3rd grade), Violet (who I have known since the beginning of my sophomore year), and Dara (who I have known since the end of freshman year).  We have distributed roles between the four of us, in a way that we believe will help us complete this project in the most efficient way.  My job is to be one of the actors, as well as one of the producers of the commercial.  These roles were assgined to me because my group and I believe that I am very good with expressing feelings on camera.  I also know how to utilize the best shots for the production.  Next is Violet, who was also assigned to act and film with me.  We both believe that we can work together to get the best shots with our acting and filming skills.  We believe that Violet could be a cord actor in

It also allows me to bring up som
