Planning Blog for Vans Commercial

Introduction

Before we begin anything in our project, we will plan what the film process will be like. We have to figure out what props and costumes we will be using. As well as the schedule and location list must be prepared before hand. This also includes a backup plan in case any event were to change our ability to film in our location or during the time we prepared. Overall, we need to basically make an outline of the film process and backup plan in case anything were to change.

Mis En Scene

  • Props: Props for out commercial would be skateboards, backpacks, and school supplies in a class. We need these to complete the theme for back to school. 
  • Costumes: Main edition to costumes would be the actual shoes and different styles of them. Also there will be some apparel that the brand offers and other skater-type clothing. This includes, flannels, beanies, hoodies, ripped jeans, and other delinquent styles. 
  • Location: There are different locations where we can shoot a skating commercial. Since we are only allowed to be on campus, we made our theme back to school. We plan on filming in the bus loop in front of the media center. Including the stairs that go up to it. Senior patio is another option if it is a sunny day. In a quick location, there would be covered passageways. 
  • Back-up Plan: If the weather gets out of hand, and it begins to rain (especially in Florida), we will only be in areas where its covered. The only part that does not have “shelter” is the senior patio and there would be no problem if it rains because we would use the bus loop and covered hallways. If one of the actors aren’t here, we will substitute another classmate. Also if our “professional” skater is not present the day we are filming those scenes, then I will go on youtube to have a quick crash course on a few skating tricks.
