This commercial was to work alongside other videos, all of which are based around the banter and consequences of losing the footy game, SuperCoach.

With this short TVC coming in at only 15 seconds, we had to be selective with our frames and actions whilst we built up to the punch line.

The opening shot begins with our main talent walking in to show the back of his head and his audience’s reaction. This was done in a bid to not give everything away and introduce the important and humourous reveal. Colour, depth and separation were difficult factors on the shoot as we had no control over the location. We were in a small meeting room with a large table that was the same colour as the wall and we were unable to move. We favourited our cleanest wall for our main talent using blocking to hide the many wall controls and switches behind him. We then created some depth with the use of peoples shoulders, props in the form of glasses, a plant and a whiteboard, and set the camera height to show the table as an additional layer of depth and create a subtle empowering feeling looking up at our talent as he fully embraces the meeting with the mouthpiece giving it his best. Our reverse shot was slightly more challenging as the table, wall and skin tones were all very similar colours and physically close to each other. Fortunately, we had some fast lenses which helped soften the background, we then again used props to add a foreground layer of depth, and created a top light for our talent to bring them out from the back wall which we flagged in order to let the wall fall darker.
