Week 7ab (Thursday the 20th of April)

Our pitch was a platform for delivering our unique concept.
You either do something outside the box and fail or do something safe and never grow. I’d rather fail- and so began a good connection with classmates who wanted to experiment with their film work.
We worked hard thinking, collaborating, and building a group relationship as well as a passion towards to our film.

The ideas remain strong with the only aspect we really need to work on is planning- and by this, I mean booking a set/location and scheduling in times for both the actors and ourselves. I think pre-pitch we knew what we wanted to use as a location, we just had some bad luck with booking the studio as it seemed to always clash with another class and was booked out in advance.

Luckily we have overcome ‘this issue which is a really important aspect as it was the main set back. Another setback is that one of the fashion students has had a house fire and was unable to shoot on the 27th of April as we had originally desired. Dispute this Lisa, Emily and I all still arrived at university to discuss and break down step by stop what we were going to do and to make sure everything was well organised as time is always of the essence.

Furthermore, our pitch really gave insight into experimental ways of thinking (in regards to different ways of filming). Camera angles, mise-en-scene (especially props), editing- these so much that you can alter to make something out of the ordinary.

Overall our next shoot date is the 4th of May, we’ve prepared well and hopefully we can see the shoot through with all of our full potential.
