Planning Storyboard for my Toyota Commercial

Scene 1-
In this first scene, I will be filming a 360 degree shot of the car to show all of the exterior design of the car. This will be a medium shot to show the whole car and allow for a moderate view. the location will be in my front yard but I will be blurring the background to focus more on the car.

Scene 2-
In this second scene, I will be filming the trunk of the car. This will be more of a close up on the trunk of the car. Since the features of the car will be mentioned, I will be filming someone loading items into the trunk to show the amount of space it has. Even though there will be a person in this shot, the main focus will be on what I am trying to showcase. This scene will be taking place in the front yard still.

Scene 3-
Still, in the front yard, I will film the driver getting into the car and starting the engine. This part is mainly an introduction to showing the internal features of the car. After entering the car, the driver will start the engine and the scene will transition.

Scene 4-
When the previous scene ends, it transitions to this next scene where I will be filming the car on the road. This scene will be used with a voice-over describing distance options (Mileage) of the car when it is bought under certain conditions. This scene will focus on and follow one exterior side of the car.

Scene 5-
Usually, when a new car model is released, people would need a reason to purchase the car. Car ads usually show the new upgrades the car has to offer. Therefore, for this next scene, the setting will be back at the front yard. However, it will be focused on the inside of the car. There will be multiple close-up shots to show some of the button functions as well as other features of the car model. There will be multiple transitions to the different features that need to be showcased.

Scene 6-
This final scene will take place on my street, where I will be filming the car drive off into the distance. The screen will then transition to a widescreen that reads the slogan "Toyota, Lets Go Places".

Filming Toyota Commercial Blog

  I started filming this blog on Friday, October 30th, 2020 when my mother and I went out. I figured that since we were taking the car, I could use that chance to film some of the interior features of the car that would be showcased. Because I needed my dad for most of the other shots, I waited till the weekend to continue the filming. That Sunday, on the 31st, I didn't have the chance to go out so I decided to film the 360 view of the car that would be used in the opening of the commercial. I used a long shot to show the entirety of the car exterior. I also filmed the scene that would come after the opening on that day. This scene was of my father putting a few things into the trunk of the car. On Sunday, my dad and I took a trip to the store. This was the perfect opportunity to film him getting into and starting the car. I used a mid-shot to a long shot for this scene because this shot was mainly just to introduce the car features and the whole body of the car didn't need to

Title Research: Glass

Art of the Title The opening sequence shows the production company in charge of the film. It shows the company that works with distributing the movie. Then it shows the title of the film. The film then starts to show the actors playing in the movie. The sequence then starts to name the people who helped cast the film, as well as the director. It showed who was in charge of music, costuming, editing, photography, then the producers.  The opening sequence starts off with a recap. this film is a sequel, so it begins by introducing the main character of the original. Later on, it introduces some of the other characters. It builds the moment by showing background events that lead to the appearance of the next potential main character.  The first clip of the man speaking to the girls can allow us to assume that the man has some sort of psychological disorder. The way he is acting all calm and friendly in this situation tells us that whatever his issue is will be part of the main plot. The sc

Genre Research: Final Choice

  Out of all three of the genres chosen, we decided to finally go with Drama. The reason for this choice is that a drama is simply more flexible than the others. There are so many aspects to a film that can make it be considered as a drama. On the other hand, Horror and Comedy have a big more restraint. When making a horror film, there has to be some element that “scares” the audience. Whether it is actually scary or not isn’t the point, but whether it creates a chilling atmosphere. It just didn’t really seem to fit into the prompt of our short film. We don’t want the audience to be too distracted by “not getting scared” to the point where they miss the message we are trying to send. Comedy was a little more close than horror, but again, it didn’t seem to match our story. The main purpose of comedic films is to have the audience laughing. Another, more subtle idea, would just be to have traces of humor throughout the film. However, why would we want to add comedy to a film that’s meant
