Alright let’s present what we’ve got so far.
Alex, Eliza and I have made a lot of plans – plans that go above and beyond the calling of Project Brief Four. However, at the moment, they’re mostly plans. We want to do a lot of filming and a lot of interviews and develop some sort of documentary or report that relates to the topic of institutions. In presenting, today, it seemed like, from what we were presenting, that we didn’t know what we were doing or that we hadn’t thought a lot about it – honestly it’s quite the contrary. We talked about the main areas we researched in our annotated bibliography and divulged some of the interesting information we had come up with and how we wanted to develop this into a media artefact.

As a group we came up with a timeline and aims to reach by the end of the week so that we were on track and all putting in an equal amount. As a group, we’re working really well together and really enjoy bouncing ideas of each other and coming up with things to complete. We decided that we wanted to interview people who worked within different media institutions and came up with names of the people we could get in touch with and even started contacting them. I’m really excited about this because, first of all, I think this will set us apart from the rest of the class because we’re putting in a lot of effort to go and see people and interview them but also because we get to talk and see a real insight into the lives of people who work in the media

For myself, it’s been a dream for a long time to do screenwriting, as seeing as both Eliza and myself know someone from screenwriting backgrounds, I’m really interested in what they have to say. Even asking them questions about how it is write with media regulation controls etc really intrigues me and I can’t wait for these interviews to happen.

We also had the idea to create a zine. This is the only concept of the Project Brief that I’m not completely clear on. But Eliza and Alex seem pretty excited about it and they have a pretty clear idea of how it should look and what it should say, so I have no objections to it.

Let’s do this!
