For the next wee bit, We will be focused on making an Ad Bumper, I decided that it would be a better idea to shoot it myself, rather than using A.I, I experimented with the use of A.I for this already, and I found that video generation isn’t quite as there as image generation, so I opted to go to recording.

Storyboard

My storyboard had to follow the hero villain format Suzie taught us in class recently, I came up with a few, but I found my Idea funny.

To put her bluntly, It is a granny sitting at her chair, chillin™. When suddenly she receives a text from her grand daughter, or something. And then she is panicking because she doesn’t really understand how text messages work, but since apples UI is so seamless and user friendly, she manages to send her grand daughter a text. Ending with a massive sigh of relief, with the caption, smoother, with iPhone.

I like this idea, It’s funny, it successfully does what a Bumper Ad should do, and it’ll be fun to shoot.

Resources

Of course, I’ll need to get a camera, I could use my phone or DSLR, whatever works best. Maybe shooting on iPhone is wise. But a DSLR would make it more dramatic.

I’ll need a costume and wig, so I went looking on spirit halloween & target and such for such.

I found this, but it is $45. I suppose I could be a granny for halloween, so It wouldn’t be a big deal. I’d get good use out of it, but this wasn’t the wig I was really imagining. I want the granny to have like an old wrinkled 70’s vibe to it. So I went looking.

For make-up, I’ll probably ask some girls I know on campus, to see if they would be down, I can’t imagine they would turn down such an opportunity, for make-up, I have some references below for what I want.

Looking through all of these images, I now realise how weird this research is going to be lol!

Ah well, it’ll be fun, and It would be funny for the portfolio, maybe, people won’t take me as seriously but that may be good for a brand, if a company is too boring I wouldn’t want to work there anyway!

I wonder where I could shoot it, Old people houses are vintage, and I feel as though the dorm kitchen isn’t good enough, So I did some research:
