Intro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The definition of zenith is the time when something is at its most powerful state. As we reach the end of our second year at Freestyle Academy we have also reached the end of what it has to offer us educationally, meaning we have reached the highest level we can reach as of now. We are at our zenith right now! What I chose to do for my zenith project was to create a commercial for a butter knife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This project is a challenge for me because in the past I have focused less on the editing aspect of my movies and more about the story telling and cinematography. For this project, I learned more about how to edit, and I used my camera skills in unison with my new editing skills to make what I think is an awesome commercial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Before making the commercial I had to do a couple of things. First I had to create a script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also created a shot list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
