AICE Media Lipstick Commercial Project 2022

Through this project, I improved my production abilities in a number of areas. I had no prior knowledge of film or the media at first. The only time I've had a connection to media was when I watched movies without knowing anything about the production.

This proved to be helpful, since for the past couple of days, I've been really busy trying to tackle school and dance. There is also the fact that midterms begin next week, which has me a bit stressed out and distracted from this project. With the load from school getting heavier and the demands from dance practice increasing, its been exhausting trying to keep up. However, I am grateful to have this team full of hard workers and people who plan ahead of time. I am the type of person who generally ...
