Planning Blog

1. Location
We are planning on filming at one of the actor's house and around their neighborhood. This allows us to have different locations and backgrounds without having to go to a lot of places. She lives near a shopping plaza too, so if we need more backgrounds, it is easily available to us. We also might film at one of the other actor's houses because they have lights that would be beneficial to our video. These lights will make the video more flashy and will look good with the "celebrity" actor.

2. Health and Safety
At the houses, we have medical aid and parental supervision. A few of the actor's neighbors are doctors and are fire-fighters, who are guaranteed to be home. The main filmer/one of the actors is CPR/AED and first aid certified. While filming in the street, we will have the person not in the shot be cautious of any cars that may pass.

3. Props
We are going to use a car for the scene where the song goes "I got the limo out front." Another prop we are going to use is makeup, including lipstick, chap stick, mascara, and eye shadow. This is going to show how a celebrity and "normal person" live differently but still do a lot of the same things. We are going to have an array of shoes to show 'Hottest styles, every shoe, every color." We will also have a microphone and a hairbrush to demonstrate the actors singing to the same song. 

4. Costumes
The "celebrity" actor is going to wear a nice romper, high heels, and sunglasses. Celebrities are known for wearing nicer clothes and heels everywhere. The "assistant" actor will wear a nice shirt and black pants. This is normal attire for an assistant of a celebrity, who should still look nice, but not over-shine the celebrity. The "normal person" actor will wear regular/everyday clothes including a sweatshirt, shorts, and fuzzy socks. This shows that normal people don't go all out when going out and how they differ from celebrities.
