Jeep Commercial Analysis

What comments can you make about the Rythm of this commercial?
The rythm of the commercial is fast and upbeat, it is also in sync with the music 'Don't Hold Back'. There are moments of slow motion but the clip is very short.

How does the editing manipulate the passage of time?
The ad's passage of time is edited to vary between day and night. As well as the speed of the shots, for example the sun setting is fast forwarded to make the sun set and represent the transition from day to night. The differences in time and scenarios represents the various uses of the car.

Are there any graphic matches and how are they used to enhance the commercial?
There is a scene where a person is driving and the side of their head is shown in a medium-close up, the head then transitions to a new person and this continues with different people for a short period of time. This technique suggests that anybody can own and drive the car.

okay so i've finished my synopsis page, now i don't know what else to do because i don't have a movie, so i can't make a trailer, and suggestions??

Website

I have done my entry page as well as a photo gallery and a synopsis page. I had to draw two pictures because i only have 1 from my actual movie because its all gone. therefore i drew money and a bank volt which is slightly un-distinguishable as a bank volt door but oh well. My entry page has a picture up the top and a small hook 'sentence to capture the audience'. I have almost completed the synopsis page.

progress on scene 3

i haven't blogged for a while. my bad.

anyways moving on. i have made a lot of process on scene 3, I've finished the police man, and he's walked through the other side and is approaching the couple with his gun pointing towards them. I want to figure out how to zoom the screen into the the police man, and have him shoot the gun and than the screen follow the gun to hit the girl and than the camera zoom out.
