 Props

My main prop will be an unopened bottle of water. Other props that may be used are water.

Costume

I am debating on whether or not I would like to use an actor for at least one shot. If I do choose to use an actor then their costume will be simple. Shorts, t-shirt, running shoes,  or some other type of sports attire. However, if I do not then there would be no actor in my commercial and therefore no costume anyone needs to wear.

Schedule

On 10/22/20: I researched conventions and codes of bottled water commercials.

On 10/23/20: I established props, costume, schedule, location list, and backup plan.

On 10/25/2020: I will begin creating the storyboard for the commercial and it will be done by or before 10/27/20.

On 10/27/2020: I will have started filming and recording the necessary shots for my commercial and that will be done before the night of 10/29/20. 

On 10/29/20: I will begin the editing process. Adding or removing what needs to be removed. Giving the commercial one last once over.

On 11/3/2020: I will post my commercial onto my blog.

Location List

Due to accessibility and limitations the main locations will be my backyard and my front-yard. I wanted to use nature as the setting so the viewer can make the connection that water comes from nature.  At the location I will get some shots of the trees, bottled water, and the general area.

Backup Plan

If the weather is not good or preferable then I will have to work my way through it. I will set up an area in the nearest dry location and go out into the weather to get some shots at intervals. However, if that is not doable then I will wait until the weather is lighter or better to proceed.
