Cereal advert

Cereal advert The task was to create a tv advert for a health related cereal brand to appeal to a health conscious consumer. I used a range of camera shots and angles ranging from extreme close ups to long shots in different environments. I used my skills from camera shots to direct where the camera should be and what movement should be made.  I also utilised sound as the advert contains a soundtrack as well as a voice over and sound affects. The advert was also made to suit the target audience with a tagline to go with it 'A break bar for ballers'.

What a surprise Our task was to create a 30 second piece where someone is given something that changes their emotion. I developed skills such as filming using different shot types and directing where the camera should be and what effect that could show. The use of music and voice to contribute to the overall piece. We also used techniques such as a graphic matches and action matches to make a smooth and clean looking video.
