Planning Storyboard For My VANS Commercial

Image
 First & Second Scene: The first and second scene will take place on a skateboard. This is because VANS is known as a skating company and have great skating apparel. These scenes are practically going to be the same. They are just going to be taken from different angles. These scenes will show off a special pair of VANS. These are special because it has a protective plastic layer over the top of them. Third Scene: This scene will show my friend walking onto the curb. He will be in a chill mood because VANS commercials usually show people chilling and having a good time. This scene will also include a bounce effect. This will add some uniqueness to the scene.

 I am doing a VANS commercial. Usually in VANS commercials they are showing off mainly the shoes but they mix in some of their other merchandise as well. It also usually shows people skating, and just hanging out and socializing. VANS products are mainly targeted towards the teenage and young adult group which like skating, surfing and just a simple, stylish shoe.
