The idea behind the promo (Sarah’s great idea) was to have our host, Prani, battling her way up the RMIT building, showing her epic journey to the Women In Media seminar. I am stoked with my group’s effort. We managed to film and cut together pretty much the entire promo in a couple of hours (minus one shot we had to film later that night). I am lucky to have such a strong team of creative individuals as when it came to the filming of the promo, everyone was switched and full of great ideas. Sarah and I earlier in the week did a quick location scout to organise where to film and the night before Sarah devised a shot list, so we were more than prepared when it came to the shoot. Mardy shot the footage and it looks stunning for something that we didn’t even light or really put that much effort into cinematography-wise, she’s a natural talent! We had other helping hands there as well on the shoot, Mia helped with sound, Maree was there for creative input and also stood in as an extra and of course Prani did a fantastic job as the star of the promo.

I edited the piece with the help of the girls and it was a fun experience. Mia helped create the shot instagram snippets that was handed off to the social media group people to promote our seminar. I believe the overall end product of the promo video is extremely nice and shows all our hard efforts. It was decided that we would not show the promo at the seminar before the guests would speak, like other groups have decided to do, as we believed it would cheapen our seminar.
