Dorito and The Argonaunts

For my fourth brief I had to make a advertisement for Doritos Crisps . This was for a competition were the whole nation and have the chance to win £20.000 and have their advert on television. there was no guide lines just 29 second advert. for my Advert I thought of the idea of the dorito not wanting to be eaten. using the idea that the human hand was a enemy of the dorito crisp. i was inspired after looking at several television adverts especially a old tennents lager which was animated spoof of Taggart. this had characters made from pints of lager and cans. in this advert the murder is a human hand. after getting a kinda of idea what wanted to looked at when doritos are othen eaten. This is often party's , watching movies , cinema and several others. i then decided to make spoof using the dorito and the hand for movies. as the crisp are related to the cinema.

i wanted to make a stop frame animation for this adverts. as i had not tried it yet. because of this i deciced to make spoof of Jason and the Argonaunts as this one of most famous epic movies and it is also has some of the first stop frame animation used in a feature film. I wanted to use this a its very inconic film and i wanted it to get noticed in a world where cgi is mostly used in such films as Lord of the rings and Spiderman this something which iam quite bored with in todays blockbuster Movies.

to make this looks as much like the film I had to make a similar set as the film. this had to be a rocky background with a ageing tree in the centre. using paper mashie and card board to make look rough and rocky. My problems started to begin when my set was taken longer that i thought to dry. When i decided to film the advert . one of the sides crumbled apart. this left little time to re build and shoot the advert. After fixing my set and finally filming the advert i found out i never got my sound sorted out. this was something in which i could have done when waiting for my set to dry.

I never got my advert in on time to place online to enter the competion. i know putting the advert on with no sound wouldnt be picked. I was very disapointed not get the sound placed on the film footage. with all time spent on the footage.
