Planning for my CeraVe commercial

 Props: The props will include the CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser, silicon facial cleanser/massager, a mirror, laptop, and water.

Costumes:  The subject would wear white apparel and have a bare clean face to properly display the product. The subject won't be shown too much because the main focus is the product.

Schedule: 

- October 20, 2020, I gathered research about the conventions of skincare commercials by watching advertisements of various skincare brands and made note of the reoccurring themes. 

- October 22, 2020, I planned out what I should wear in my commercial and the necessary props that should be in it. 

- October 23, 2020, I will speculate on how I want my commercial to look like. Starting on the storyboard should help this process.

- October 26, 2020, I will finish the storyboard and put together the whole script of my commercial.

- October 27, 2020, I will start and finish recording my commercial.

- October 28-29, 2020 I will edit my video and add all the necessary transitions and music to the commercial, along with final touch-ups.

Location: The best option is to record in my room using the natural light from the windows. My walls are a light color which will go great with the theme of skincare advertisements. The wall I will be in front of will be bare so the background isn't distracting to the product nor the subject. In addition, the mirror will be used for cinematography purposes. 

Backup Plan: Skin is never guaranteed to stay flawless and that will be a bad look for the commercial, so if the subject happens to break out the product will have to be the new subject. This means, that the Hydrating Facial Cleanser will be in the frame the whole 30 seconds instead of it being seen getting used on the skin. Another alternative would be to use another model as the subject.


This is my product that I will be advertising.

Production Blog: Back to Filiming

 Over the 3 day weekend, I used all the time I had to my advantage. I'm really proud of myself and what I got accomplished. Filiming was surprisingly easier than anticipated. Although it took longer than I expected; everything was organized and planned to perfection. I had the best lighting, no interruptions, and my cousin seemed to know what she was doing. So we also had an amazing time together filming. I honestly believe it made us closer, which is a plus. Watching the scenes we recorded together gave us the opportunity to reshoot and modify things that needed to be changed. For example, how the pillow was positioned or my facial expression. She contributed to a lot and I really think without her help this wouldn't be possible.  Moreover, like mentioned beforehand, the scene that we recorded took a long time to shoot. We spent 2 whole days on it and lucky for me she decided to spend the night. So time was not a factor while we were filming because we had all the time in the

CeraVe Commercial

(I've uploaded the video using two different methods just in case one method doesn't work.) My journey of making my first official AICE Media project has finally come to a close. From here on, I know what to expect; and this is definitely a class I have to work my hardest on. Doing this project was just a taste of what I have to do next and I'm prepared for it. With this project, I guarantee I tried my absolute best. Additionally, I want to acknowledge that I will improve my skills as well. I understand I could have made the commercial have a cooler storyline or made it slightly more entertaining. However, I wanted to follow the conventions of a skincare ad and usually, those types of things don't happen. I know for next time I should do my project however I want, creativity is key. I want to entertain my audience so they enjoy watching. I'll continue to improve by finding new techniques on how to accomplish this. (Perhaps more research could help). Also, I did a de
