Doritos Spec Commercial shot on HMC150

Not bad at all. Could do some more coloring I suppose but it's pretty decent. Excellent try at this but unfortunately I don't think you will win. It just doesn't look professional enough. What stood out in my mind after I watched it was COFFEE not so much Doritos. I mean the Doritos bag was on screen for like a split second and then the next time you see it, it's crumbled up in the guy's mouth. I honestly watched it three times and still can't figure out what he says at the end. It's just like.. Mrah mrahhh mrrrrr coffee.

:bath:

Appreciate the feedback. Not really in it to win, just an excuse to work on some concepts and shoot something for fun... Shot in about 4 hours with consumer grade lighting and 2 person crew both serving as talent as well, so all in all I think it was a good exercise.
 
Not bad for a quick turn around. The audio could use some work. Sounds like the built-in mics?
I think you're featuring coffee more than doritos though, so it might make people go grab a cup instead of the chips, no?
 
Totally agree with the audio needing more work - Mixture of mics - mostly RODE NTG-2 - always camera mounted though, so reverb in that right angle shot and bad signal-to-noise due to distance from subject.

Minimal voiceover work with Octava MK-319 large diaphram condenser .. but done super fast.. could have done a lot more audio but ran out of steam for this.

As far as the concept - I'm not sure.. Mostly just going for the laughs..

This really boils down to "Coffee = Problem, Doritos = Solution" but hopefully with a laugh or two along the way.

Specifically, I was interested in what I could do with Compact Fluorescent bulbs as light source, how the HMC150 would perform (I just got it last friday), and getting a concept from paper to the web...
