CCR

 The product represents and pushes the narrative of the new generation. The product can be distributed with easy acess and is used in examples of everyday life.At first my production skills were nonexistent. But after working as a group I learned team management skills. And the editing process working as a group. I used the latest version of the iphone14 camera. I also used imovie on a mac laptop to edit. With a mixture of capcut and audio recording devices.I learned how to have a set place where you shoot. I also learned to have more than several takes to get the beat last piece to use. I also learned how to work with people of a different gender.

Commercial

 This video is Kazmin and the girls first production film. Beginning to end, filming this commercial wa so much fun. From the facetimes planning our video to adding in Kazmin's British accent, we wouldn't change our process for a thing. Looking back at the whole process of the execution leading to this moment, we will definitely improve on upcoming projects, one being simplicity. lol. Nonetheless, for our first video, we smashed it. Hopefully, as the year goes by, Kazmin and the girls will make even greater films.

Me and the girls met for the first time in class since our filming. I gathered around them and prepared for the most important part editing. First order of operations was to figure out which clips to use. After that I helped decide the timing of each clip and how it was going to be handled. I made the slogan used for the commercial. With Airpods your never alone. I helped make everyone stay positive while creating media for us to use. Unfortunately I came down with the flu which took me out for our next editing day. I went to my grandparents house and still gave my opinion on editing tactics. Like how to do a proper transition between clips. Even though I tried to help I couldn't do much. I had no computer because I use a pc which is stationary at my home. All I could do was hope the girls pulled through and edit properly. Thankfully while I was away they checked on me. They helped me with my personal work and reminded me the fixes I need to be successful. Still I watched over thei

 I was finally able to meet up with the girls. I went to Sofia's community. I arrived at 1 pm and made it to her house. Jenna had brought Starbucks for me and the girls. Then I walked to Sofia's gym and clubhouse. After I went near the poolside to review our dance. I went over our script and made sure to get everything down. Randomly out of nowhere Jackson and Zane showed up. They held the doors for our first scene. In our second scene there was a close up shot on savannah's phone. After I gave Jenna and Savannah airpods. Then it transitioned into a choreography that was a dream. There was old ladies and men staring at us in the gym. One nice guy asked me and Jackson what type of project was it. He after gave us kind words of wisdom. After shooting I rode Jackson's bike. I went to his house and his dog barked a lot when he saw me. Very scary moment his dog was giant. After I went to Sofia's house and met her dog. The dog was much nicer. After I met Sofia's paren

  Hello it's Kazmin and today was the first day we tried to start production. Unfortunately     we were not able to start the filming process. We made a date and planned to go to Sofia's community. But unfortunately hurricane Ian messed up the days we could meet. Still we seek to improve our script and making our storyboard into reality. We looked at the best tools we could use for filming and decided to use savannah's Iphone 14. We planned on making me the star of the commercial. I came up with the choreography and the song being used. We used I think we're alone now by tiffany. We tried to keep the 80's atmosphere. Also stealing the idea of the dancing and working out they had back in the older times. We also came up with the idea of making everything a dream. Although we had so much plans and thoughts to put together mother nature took it's course and witheld us from filming. Personally transportation played a crucial role in not filming. Also family matters

  First scene: Kazmin, Sofia, Jenna, and maybe Savannah will all walk into the gym. This shot will be a medium close-up for Kazmin and the girls will be a little further back, making it a medium shot for them. There will be no music in this shot only the natural sound effects like shoe noises, door opening noise, etc.   Second scene: Kazmin opens the Airpod pro case from his pocket and puts the AirPods in his ears. This shot will be taken at a medium shot displaying his side profile. This is when the music starts which demonstrates Kazmin falling into a dream of music from the AirPods. We will use this by Fading into his head with a black screen to show the audience that the next scenes will all be in his head. The sound effect of the case opening and the AirPods connecting will all be included. The music will be the same vibe as the commercial, fun and upbeat. In the background of all of this, you will see the girls working out.  Third scene: In Kazmins music dream world he hands the
