VANS Commercial


This project was totally different from my genre project. I had to do everything on my own and without guidance which was scary and cool at the same time. The scariest part was me not wanting to put my pride aside and ask for help. I wanted to do it all on my own and I don't know if that help or hurt me more. I learned a lot during this experience and I will always remember this project. Looking at my project, I see where I could have done a lot more. My production skills and editing skills aren't the best but I really did try which is why it's sad to me. Plus, the time change really ruined the feeling I was going for but I didn't let it stop me. I also don't like how I didn't notice the quality shift in my upload. The beginning is very grainy while the other half is fine for some reason. I'm pretty sure, my phone uploading the video is the reason but it sucks. I really wanted everything to be perfect. Was it? Not at ALL! But, for my first time really being director, I'm proud. A lot of things didn't go my way. For example, waiting for my actress to show up, the time change and just putting my vision to life was hard. But we prevailed. We have our first real commercial and I'm super proud of it. To the VANS team, watch out! I'm coming for your jobs.

  How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues? -   My product uses conventions by having on heavy display the song "Independent Women Pt. 1" and having the matching outfits and more. Things that bring in the idea of Destiny's Child as a group. Having little moments where we seem real close was important because Destiny's Child always came off as a sisterhood and nothing less. It represents the teen social group or just anyone that's a fan of Destiny's Child because it's a Destiny's Child song.   How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?  -  My product doesn't engage with any audiences because a music video very rarely does. If anything, the only way I can think of it engaging with an audience is maybe if we had incorporated "fans" into the video. A music video is usually all about the artist and their art. If this was a real me...

Planning for my music video

  The next step of our project is planning .  T his is the time where we  think of which  conventions,   we  want to incorporate  and which ones  we will  le a ve out.  There  were a  lot of conventions   seen and noted . However, we can only fit so much into a minute-long vide o .    Props:  Since the song is about women getting  what they  desire  through their own  earnings, the  scene  where  we a re  at the mall  props such  as  money , shopping bags ,  and what we buy will be used. The ind ividual scene s   won’t  have props that go with the music ,  but   rather th e  actions  made   by each actor  will  be  a representation of the music.    Costumes:   We will be all dressed in different attire for our personal scenes.  But  there will be a point where we are all in o...
