Reflection 9

1 April 2013

Today we finished the filming for our commercial. We were able to film all the scenes that we missed. Another thing that we did was check all our dialogue for our commercial. We made sure that everything we  were saying was grammatically correct and that it made sense. We also adjusted the dialogue so it would not be overwhelming. We took 40 minutes to film everything as we tested audio and visuals and filmed more than one time to have different footage to choose from. This way we would be able to choose the best one. We talked about the targets for our commercial and worked on the points that had been pointed our by the feedback. Our deadline was extended to the 15th of April, so this way we have more time to work. We will start to edit the video as homework but we will also be able to work on it in class. If we have time through Facebook we will start to brainstorm ideas for our rationale so we can start to work in the next-next class. As soon as we edit, revise and add the text to the footage that we recorded today we are going to be done with our commercial.

Would I hire myself?
I would only hire myself after I have created an improved commercial. I would hire myself because I believe that we have been working with due dates and that we have created a commercial that follows all the requirements.  We have interesting visuals, audio and text and unique organization techniques, as flashbacks. We are also able to persuade the target audience and teach them about stealing in school. I would only hire myself after the pitch was made because after we presented the pitch we are working even better than we did before. We improved the commercial, worked cooperatively as an Ad Team and fixed many grammar and tone mistakes that our commercial possessed. It we worked like in the last classes and produced a revised and persuasive commercial as I did know, I would hire myself.

Today we worked really well as a group. We cooperatively worked on our feedback and the points that we had to improve in our commercial. We saw our mistakes and were willing to change them for the new filming. We discussed our grade (6/10) with our peer and own feedback to improve so we could achieve at least an 8 or 9 out of 10 for the final project. We also worked positively to film. We were all willing to film many times so we could achieve the ideal result. We worked in a group through out the whole class and planned to work after class to make sure that we finished. Separately, we got an extra class so it gave us more time to finish. This class we worked better than last class and I believe that we can finish a great project in time.
