Planning for my L'Oréal Paris lipstick commercial



Welcome to my blog reader! 

Props: 

Because my group decided to produce a L'Oréal Paris commercial, our main prop is L'Oréal lipstick. 
Other props we will include are a mirror, a makeup bag, and other makeup products whose names will not be featured. 
Costumes: 
In our commercial, we will have two actors as the subjects. Our actors would wear everyday indoor house clothes. The child would wear youthful clothing such as a t-shirt with animations on it. The older actress would wear something simple like jeans and a blouse, as the goal of the commercial is to make the setting as relatable as possible for families. 
Schedule: 
On 9/23/22, our group researched conventions and codes of L'Oréal and general makeup commercials. 
On 9/29/22, our group established the props. costumes, location list, backup plan, and schedule. 
On 10/3/22, our group will create the storyboard for the 30 second commercial. 
On 10/11/22. Our group will film and record the necessary shots for our commercial on 10/13/22, our group will edit and add the final changes to our commercial. 
Location List: 
Our main location is at the actress's home. At her home, we will film mainly in one of the bedrooms and a bit in the hallway. This would help keep the focus on what is happening between both actresses instead of the setting 
Our second location is a brightly lit room with a black backdrop to display the lipstick itself. This would emphasize the packaging and vivacity of the lipstick. 
Backup plan: 
If we are unable to film in the home of the actress, we will likely switch to the director's home, where there is also a childishly decorated bedroom. We would film as quickly as possible, to not lose the attention of the young actress. If the young girl were to not want to act any longer, we would be forced to change directions and showcase the lipstick on a group member, so that the commercial would emphasize adolescence rather than childhood.

Well this is my cue to leave, till next time reader!

Back to the Editing Room

          Welcome back to my blog reader ! After ta king in all the advice and comments that my close friends Jasmine and Jada provided me with regarding my sho rt fil m “Lucky” after they watched it. I have gathered all their suggestions and concerns and have taken them back with me to the editing room. Further, for the scene where Gabriela, the protagonist of the film, interacts with the stranger to ask where the event is located . There was poor quality audio for that scene as I filmed it at the mall therefore there was background noise as well as the sound of the wi nd. This scene is a crucial part of the film, thus I had to fi nd a solution to the problem. I asked the actress who plays Gabriela and the actress who plays the stranger to voiceover that scene in attempt to make it easier for the viewer to unde rstand the dialogue as it plays a vital role tha t in the story and leads to the suspenseful areas of the film.

Our Plan

Image
Welcome back to my blog reader! Here is our plan for the music video project! Props:   . Since we chose the song Material Girl, we plan to display a young girl living a lavish lifestyle. To portray this, we plan to use fake money, sunglasses, and a feather boa as our props.  Costumes:    . In our video, we will have one main subject, our material girl, with others playing supporting roles. For the material girl, they would be dressed up in long gloves, fake pearls, and a nice long dress, preferably pink. To fit the stereotype of a gold-digger, they would also wear a blonde wig, a feather boa, and expensive looking sunglasses. The actress would have on light makeup, with the most bold part being some red lipstick.       For the lower class boys, we would have them dress in casual clothing, such as jeans and a hoodie. Any lower class girls would dress in similar casual clothing but may wear skirts, short dresses, or shorts as well. On the other hand...

  Creative Critical Reflection 1 .        1.   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? . My group’s product was a L'Oréal Paris Lipstick, and its  company usually target s their products at older audiences, mostly adult women . The main theme of L'Oréal products is that they make you feel young once more, due to that their advertisements for the most part consists of women being portrayed as being energetic and living life to the fullest because of the makeup they use. Regarding the lipstick itself, is that it goes against the ideal of the cultural beauty standard that states that the idea of beauty only applies to youth. The colors that they use ar e to contrasts the colors (such as more skin tone, matted colors) that adult women would on a daily basis wear . The company L'Oréal, introduces these women as adults (older) yet elegant and pleasing...
