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.

Although we mostly planned on using our phones for recording as it had better quality, we rented out a camera and tripod just in case. We were hesitant on using it due to the experience we had with our last project, where we found out the battery life was not ideal. With all this in mind, everything was set for Saturday. Unfortunately, things had taken a turn for me. Last Friday, the day before filming, I had a dance performance scheduled at an event in Miami. At said performan...
