Research blog: Commercial Conventions

Image
       For my commercial, i will not be using basic codes or conventions. Instead, i will thrive to take a different route and make my commercial original. The style i will be using will be somewhat humorous but at the same time a bit more serious. This is because i want to draw the attention of the audience with the humor but also let the information about the product stick to them so they'll be more intrigued.

Planning for my Iphone Commercial

 Props: The props i will be using for my commercial will be my Iphone XR as the item i will be "selling" in the commercial. External props i will be using will be a different Iphone to shoot the commercial. I will also be setting up my desk as a "professional desk" with a coffee mug and random objects to put around the desk. I will also be using various items for the phone such as cases and such to show how the product would look in each one. Costumes: for my commercial i will be wearing a professional/casual outfit that will match with the background theme i will have for the commercial. Location List: The only location will be at my house, specifically using my desk area in my living room. Backup: My backup for my Iphone ad will be a bathing suit ad. This idea might not seem as good as an Iphone ad because they aren't very common at all, however i do own quite a bit of them and the commercial could be like a clothing line type commercial.

 Hello my name is Sabrina Macdonald. I am in 11th grade and a Junior. I am taking this class because i am interested in expanding my horizon of learning and trying something new. For example throughout freshman and sophomore year i mainly focused my learning on sciences because that is what i am most interested in for college, however i decided that expanding my options was going to be a good experience for me. Im also taking this class to get my credits for AICE classes so i can graduate. My favorite study is marine science or anything that has to do with the ocean and aquatic animals. My favorite animals are sharks and rays. On my free time i study about marine life and take notes about them so i can learn more. I also am fascinated with shells and their different shapes and textures. I spend most of my time at the beach either fishing, snorkeling, diving, or collecting shells and other cool things on the beach. For college, i want to get into a marine program and study to be an aqua
