Planning

Props:

Since my group decided to do a Franklin Batting Glove commercial, our main props will be the gloves, a baseball bat, and some baseballs.

Costumes:

In our commercial we will have all group members as the subject. Everyone will be wearing normal athletic attire. A dri-fit travel ball shirt with some athletic shorts. Also we will be wearing normal tennis shoes. The batters will wear the different colored Franklin batting gloves. We might have our actors wear helmets. Also we might have them wearing an arm sleeve or other accessories that add color to the commercial.

Schedule:

On 9/20/25, our group will finalize the necessary research of the product.

On 9/22/25, our group will finalize the props, location, schedule, and outfits.

On 9/23/25, our group will create the storyboard for the 30 second commercial.

On 9/25/25, our group will record and film the shots for our commercial.

On 9/26/25, our group will edit and add final touches to our commercial.

Location List:

Our main location is the holiday park baseball field. At this field we will film our actors swinging the bats with and without the gloves. This will show the difference the gloves make by giving the player confidence when practicing. We will also film the process of putting on the gloves.

Our second location will be the dugout. In the dugout we will end up displaying all the different colors of Franklin batting gloves. The actors will then pick out a pair to use for practice. (The order of location will go, field, dugout, then back to the field.)

Backup Plan:

If we are unable to go to the field due to any weather conditions, we will have to change the location to an indoor facility. My group members and I practice at this indoor facility very often and will be easily able to film during this practice.
