For our commercial, Chris and I designed a storyboards to set up our ideas. In the first scene you hear the footsteps of feet on grass. Then you can feet (which are sporting Nike's) walking on the grass, this walk progresses to a jog and then to a steady run. In the second scene you see these feet running and then you see them about to kick a soccer ball. As soon as the foot connects with the ball the screen cuts out and you see a black screen. Then on the black screen you see the word evolve typed onto it, followed by the definition. In the third scene the black screen disappears and is replaced by someone hitting a baseball and sprinting, and just like in the last scene, the image cuts out and is once again replaced by a blank black screen. Except this time the typed word and definition are ignite. On scene number four, it starts with someone about to run a race. This time when the pistol sounds and people start to sprint it cuts to the black screen and shows the word and the def

Sarah Samuels and Christopher Hayman My partner and I are going to be doing a commercial advertising Nike. This commercial is one that we hope to be filled with passion and creativity. To film the commercial, we will mostly likely go outside on campus to record. We may potentially borrow equipment from around the school to add to it. To start the process, we will create a storyboard of the commercial to visualize and script it. Next, we will look it over and perfect it, and get ready to film. Once we arrive in Media Studies for 8th period, we will leave when allowed to find a good filming location. We will most likely find a part of the campus with stairs, to film ourselves exercising or running with the shoes. We will do several takes, and afterwards, we will look them over to find the best one. When we are finished recording, we will digitally add in sound effects, like music and voiceovers. We will also add in the visuals, like the Nike logo and the slogan, which will be at the end

Sarah Samuels and Chris hayman For this commercial, my partner and I are going to advertise the popular shoe brand Nike. Nike offers many different types of products, such as shoes, jerseys, bags, socks, and many more accessories and equipment. However, they are most commonly known for their shoes. One example of a product branded by Nike is the ZoomX Invincible Run. These shoes include soft, responsive foam, and a Flyknit upper that allows your feet extra security and breathability. They are only one of Nike's most tested shoes. These qualities make it an excellent choice for shoes that you can run and exercise with. Another product of theirs is the Air VaporMax 2021. These powerful shoes are complete with extra-stretchy Flyknit fabric, a recycled TPU heel clip, and a switched-on Swoosh that make it a pleasurable jog. Not only that, but they are made from at least 40% recycled materials. The Nike Revolution 5 is another one of Nike's most impressive products. These shoes featu

  Group members: Sarah Samuels, Christopher Hayman The person I have for my group project is Christopher Hayman. I first met Christopher on the second day of this media studies class. Me and Chris hit it off instantly. We shared similar music tastes and an interest in online and video games. Throughout the first and second week we would spend the free periods in this class discussing different games. We would also discuss different music artists and concerts we were looking forward to seeing. Chris is a hard worker who I know I can depend on for this project. I've seen before how dedicated he can be when it comes to academics. I figured out the hard way that for this project, you need someone who you're compatible with. I've known Chris for a while now and I think we'll have no problem completing this commercial successfully. Chris is more on the reserved side but he's very kind and genuine. For our commercial we decided to film and advertisement for Nike. Nike is a

    My name is Sarah Samuels, I am 15 years old and attend Fort Lauderdale Highschool. I am a first-generation immigrant with Parents from Jamaica. I have 2 siblings and 1 dog, whom I love very much. I was born September 28, 2006 and am a libra. I enjoy reading, talking with friends, cycling, shopping, and trying new foods. But more than anything I love meeting and talking new people. I feel like it allows me to immerse myself into the thoughts and feelings of the people around me. My favorite color is black because it is a staple in everything. My favorite food is French fries (contrary to popular belief). I have dreams to be a doctor, more specifically an orthopedic surgeon. I love the idea of being able to help people through surgery and scientific knowledge. My favorite subject is math and science. Math because I enjoy plugging in formulas. Though I also enjoy science I am nowhere near good at it. I hope to one day be able to major in biology to achieve my dreams and reap the rewar
