Pitch Feedback

Your pitch was presented effectively using slides to outline ideas. You communicate well as a team and seem to have developed roles within the group.

I like the idea of an interrogation and it offers opportunities to explore lighting and mise en scene in a short scene. One concern was how this would be a short film  as it reflects the tropes of dram on TV. However, you explained how this would be overcome effectively.  Ideas such as use of colour sound interesting, make these clear.  Your answers revealed a depth of thought about the narrative which allayed any fears about the genre and medium.

Be realistic about where you film this. It is ambitious to use the library and keep e-mail communication to show planning. 

Why use a Go Pro?  Explain what different cameras bring to the style of the piece.

Can you publish a first draft of the script on the blog?

Comment on audience feedback received as part of the pitch. You will need this later for the evaluation.

Outline the roles allocated within the group.

Task 10: Recce

Below is a series of photographs taken prior to filming to get an idea of the location and to identify risks for the risk assessment. They also gave us a greater understanding of how we were going to frame our shots.
