Production Blog

 Hello again! For this Dunkin' Donuts commercial, I was one of the actors along with Omnia and Marlo. Harley was the Director and Videographer. My role in this commercial was the main characters, Omnia, sister. In the commercial our alarm went off and Omnia woke up, turned it off, and went back to sleep causing both me and her to oversleep and be late for school. It was pretty easy to act out sleeping but it was hard to keep a straight face having to act out snoring. Marlo, the mom, came in to wake me and omnia up because we were late for school. In the commercial, Omnia and I had to act tired and miserable and at the same time move quickly because were "late" to school. The major transition to show that Dunkin' kept me going was when we had to take a bite of the donut and a sip of the coffee. Omnia and I created the idea for a transition to show us in our pajamas looking terrible and then when ate Dunkin' products, right away were dressed and ready for the day to show America runs on Dunkin. The dramatic acting in this commercial was to try to really sell the idea that Dunkin' Donuts is the superior brand to other major companies like Starbucks. I think that all the acting in this commercial is able to compliment the overall purpose of the commercial. Although Harley was not in the commercial, they played a very important role in filming and directing most of the shots taken for this commercial. This commercial was overall very fun to make because it required my group mates and I to put our heads together and think about what would look good for this commercial and all the little details put into the commercial. The production of this commercial has definitely caused my group mates and I to become a lot closer. In producing this commercial, it has led for my group mates and I to be able to learn each other thought processes and see who thinks alike and who comes up with things that would not be considered by others. Overall, the production of this commercial was a success and I am glad for my group members and proud of the work we have put in. Till next time.

Movie Conventions Research: A Quiet Place

What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  The main element of the thriller genre that A Quiet Place has it’s the non-diegetic and diegetic sound. It’s mainly used to show what the characters are heading, and to highlight how quiet the world is, because of how loud those small movements are that we don’t tend to notice. Such as walking or placing down something on a shelf. There’s also non-diegetic sound, which is used to build suspense when there’s climax’s of action. My group will use diegetic and non-diegetic sound to also have this element. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like?  In A Quiet Place the monsters that are hunting them are almost never directly shown. They’re shown in blurs and just in sound. You know there is danger, but you don’t know who or what’s behind it. It’s one of the elements my group enjoyed within this movie. It builds the suspense, because you draw your own conclusions and the u...
