At the end of Senior year at Freestyle, we are assigned our last project called the Zenith Project. Zenith, meaning \u201cthe time at which something is most powerful or successful\u201d<\/em> , <\/em>is meant to inspire us to create something we are passionate about that showcases our skills we have accumulated by the end of our two years at Freestyle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having taken the Film elective at Freestyle, I wanted to challenge myself to create the most professional-looking video possible. Thus, I chose to design a juice brand for which I would then shoot and edit a commercial. My goals were to learn new editing skills as well as combine my design and film skills I had acquired over the past two years into one polished piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our Zenith projects were broken up into three steps: Pre Production, Production, and Post Production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Above is a few snippets of my process, which consisted of designing a logo and label, shooting the commercial, and editing. I designed my logo and label in Adobe Illustrator, which I had learned to use in my Digital Media class my Junior year. While shooting, I used lighting techniques and creative shots that I had storyboarded beforehand, a skill I learned in my Film class. Finally, I learned how to isolate subjects with a transparent background in Adobe After Effects while editing, and animated the objects to move around the screen in Premiere Pro. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Below is my presentation demonstrating my 3-step process and final product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
