Planning Blog for Gatorade Commercial

    Today, my group is going to plan for a Gatorade commercial. We already know common tropes of what a commercial should be like and will integrate that when creating our plan. Our current idea is to have the setting be focused around the track at our school. This is always up for change, if it rains we will have a back up plan. The first thing we are doing is starting to watch Gatorade commercials, as we can recreate the types of angles and lighting they use. Our current idea is to have 3 of our group members be in a track race. Our protagonist, Sean struggles, and wins the race as he has prepared and looks serious on the blocks. Coach hands him a Gatorade, he drinks it and slams it down; amplifying the effect. The camera focuses on the Gatorade as we celebrate in the background.

1) Props- Lime Gatorade Bottle (Normal Size), Water (for sweat), Whistle, Medal.
2) Costumes- Sweatbands, Track-like Clothing, Running Shoes, Polo shirt.
3) Schedule- On October 19 we will storyboard our scenes for the commercial, On October 21 we will film our commercial from the rubric of the storyboard and get multiple scenes of everything we need. On October 23rd we will edit the commercial in class and add our overlays such as pictures and special effects. On October 25 our commercial will be done and will be turned in for grading.
4) Location- We will be filming on the track at our school, and on the bleachers.
5) Backup Plan: Actor buys Gatorade from school vending machine, goes to work out in the weight room or the stairs, and slams the Gatorade down to show effect as he works out and is sweating.
