Yesterday, we discussed ideas on how we wanted our video to be shot.
We discussed things like the style that was going to be used, the content of the video, the order of which the content is going to be presented, and the intros and conclusions.
Andrea suggested a silent movie, Clarissa suggested a 'saw' kind of theme (don't know what she meant by that though), and I suggested a hand held camera style. In the end, we discussed a little and ended up with this super awesome idea of doing a news show.
In this super awesome news show, we would have a bimbo reporter (Andrea), and funny news feeds. In between, we planned to include fictitious advertisements to add more humour to our video. We gave random ideas on the different skits that we can have in our video, and they were all very funny. Everything was going fine and dandy until we told Alfie our ideas, and realised we have been focusing on the wrong point. We were more of showcasing our work than promoting our course.
After that we did some rethinking, we tried to think of other ways to do the skits instead of changing our entire main idea. Eventually Alfie gave us some pointers on how we should tackle the design brief for project 1, or all the projects we might be getting in the future for that matter.
That was pretty much all we did in class for the day, Alfie dismissed us after talking to the class. Overall, today I learnt to Alfie's secret to tackling project briefs which he said should be kept as a secret within our class. Teamwork was good, we all agreed with each other and everyone gave good suggestions.
Have a look at the photos we took in class.
