The day of our presentation

Today is the day of our presentation to Suited and Booted and the Bath film office. We have spent the first hour setting things up and running through our speaking parts and the technical side of the presentation. We basically just finished off all of our bullet points for our speaking and decided on what order to go in. We had a practice run through and it was roughly 10minutes long which was the required time. We went next door, when it was time to start, and watched Ashley, Harriet, Olly, Frank and Lauren do there film presentation first. We were to go second and be filmed and asked questions about our filming experience. We were lucky to go second as watching the first presentation gave us an idea of what sort of questions we were going to be asked and also to see if our way of presenting would work and be acceptable. Our presentation went really well and I felt as if we really connected with the audience and carried out the brief well. Sara, Jenny and Rachel seemed really pleased with our effort and our outcome and only queried our choice of costume. We would have done this better had we had a budget and dressed in more appropriate period costume.

This was a really good opportunity to watch and get some insight into how the other groups worked and created there films. It was really interesting to see and hear how differently we all went about planning and creating our films. Another thing that I found really interesting was how we all interpreted the brief and seeing how different everyone's ideas about the word and meaning 'Gothic'. After watching the films I think that everyone stuck to the brief and created unique films.

5th March lesson - planning for our film presentation

This lesson was dedicating to making the finishing touches to our editing and planning our presentation for Suited and Booted and the Bath film office. We have been asked to design a 10 minute presentation between us to pitch our film to our clients. Our group has decided to design some postcard sized handouts to promote our film. We took on different roles in our presentation, for example, I am going to be talking about our locations and the acting in the film. Jenni is talking about the reason why it should be put on the website, overall filming and the music aspect of our film. Jack is making a power point presentation in order to demonstrate to the audience how and why he has edited the chosen film the way he has. Behind me and Jenni talking there will be an enlarged version of our handout to provide a backdrop to our speaking section.

Unfortunately Daisy was not present in this lesson so we had to assign her the section of how the filming and directing went as she was primarily the main person to have worked on this.
