Planning

We decided to create a very detailed schedule because we want to have enough time for all locations. We are filming in four different locations. Which are subject to change if the weather permits. We decided to come and film at lunch too. So from 11:35-11:50 we will be on the senior patio to film our "morning" shot. After that we gave ourselves five minutes to get to the track to film our "day" shot from 11:55-12:15. Then from 12:20-12:40 we will be under the media center. Out last and final scene is us at the bus loop from 12:45-12:55 so we can film our shot of us running with a ton of other people. We thought that doing a shot based off a school day woukd be pretty cool so we picked spots around the school that can be used when filming and would represnt different points in a school day.

Our group decided it is best is we print out pictures of the logo Dunkin’ donuts because “America Runs on Dunkin.” Throughout the whole comercial the actors will be walking and running on “Dunkin.” We will also have people with cups of coffee and food from the company. They will be waking around as background people or close up for product placement. For the costumes we decided to have people dress in different solid colors. The reason why is because the concept of the commercial is how it feels like to not have your coffee that day. The video will display the variety moods someone can be without having their coffee. 

In case anything goes wrong with the weather we have our backup plan, which is if it rains and we can’t go on the track we would go and film under the media center by the vending machines. We would film in the track people running on the Dunkin boxes but if it’s raining we will have a group of people walking with Dunkin cups. Our other backup plan is the senior patio, we would have a group of kids meeting up to eat their breakfast which would be the donuts and the coffee. If it rains too we would film by the auditorium stairs. Have the group of kids hang out on the stairs with their Dunkin coffee and donuts. We’d also film in the bus loop as if kids were on their way home, our other option would be to film at the point of entry. If things go according to plan we will continue with our track, senior patio, and bus loop films.
