AICE Media Studies

Props:  Our primary prop is a L'Oréal lipstick because my group chose to create a L'Oréal Paris advertisement. We'll also use a mirror, a beauty bag, and other makeup items whose names won't be displayed, as props. Costumes:  Two actors will be the subjects of our commercial. Our actors would dress in typical indoor home attire. The young person might dress in casual attire, such as a t-shirt with cartoon graphics. As the ad aims to make the scenario as relevant for families as possible, the elder actress would choose something straightforward like jeans and a blouse. Schedule:  On 9/23/22, our group conducted research on conventions and codes of L'Oréal and general cosmetic commercials. On 9/29/22, our group established the props, costumes, location list. backup plan, and schedule. On 10/3/22, our group will create the storyboard for the 30-second commercial. On 10/11/22, our group will film and record the necessary shots for our commercial. On 10/13/22, our group

My group is doing a Lipstick commercial. After some research, we ultimately decided on the brand L'Oreal Paris, in the color riche.  In these commercials, we often see extreme close up shots (ECU) of the lipstick being applied on the actor's or model's lips. The majority of commercials for cosmetic brands focus more on women, which is stereotypical. In fact, all of the commercials I've watched while conducting research consisted of all women actresses or models. The actors often wear costumes of plain clothing, usually of one color or very limited variation. This is probably to draw attention away from the actor's other aspects besides the lips, or facials. The body language of the actor/actress in most lipstick/cosmetic commercials tend to be happy and energetic, expressing their joy of the product. The appearances consist of very natural styled makeup; nothing exotic to draw the audience's attention from the lipstick.  The commercial sometimes uses ethos, incl

 I decided to partner up with my friends Hailey Martinez, Kyra Myers, and Alessandra for this project. In certain circumstances, I find it difficult collaborating with others on projects because I am used to being independent when it comes to academics. I like to be in control and I don't particularly prefer relying on others. However, I've known the individuals in my group for a while. I am familiar with their work ethic and I feel as though I can rely on them to be productive. I trust that my group can have a strong interpersonal tie and, in my opinion, we could solve any difficulty by working together. I decided to partner up with people I know are responsible and will not let me down as an individual and as a team. Most of us have similar classes, and outside of this class, we have previously supported one another academically. We all have studied or helped each other in a way, therefore I can see that we each place a high importance on education. Apart from working ethics,

As someone who loves to write, describing myself is surprising something that comes difficult to me. My name is Isabel Reyes and I am in 10th grade attending Fort Lauderdale High School. Academic wise, I would say I am a responsible student who gets good grades and strives for success. I've always been pretty well-rounded, so I've struggled on deciding what exactly I wanted to do as a career. I guess you could say that makes me a typical nerd, someone who loves to read and learn new things. Funny enough, it wasn't until I finished watching "How to Get Away With Murder," my favorite TV Show, where I decided that I wanted to become an attorney in the future. In school, although I get good grades, I do not particularly enjoy STEM related subjects and tend to lean towards the humanities. My parents have always pushed me into trying different extracurriculars of all kinds, however, I struggled to find someone that sparked my interest. I’ve always been introverted and
