Pitches

Today, we did our pitches in front of the class and Miss Greene.

Unfortunately, Zeyna wasn't in and she hadn't completed the powerpoint she was supposed to create; which meant that Milly and I were left to give our pitch without a powerpoint, on our own with just a storyboard. 

As we did our pitch, it was clear our original idea was too complex for a two minute film opening so we changed some details, keeping it as simple as possible. 

I think we presented our idea very clearly, despite the idea being very detailed; the route we wanted to go down was very well explained. A positive piece of feedback we got was that our idea was very original and unlike most film pitches that had been heard that day.

I think we could improve our film opening by making it simpler, as quite a few people said that it'd be difficult for us to fit everything we had planned into two minutes. We took this feedback into consideration and changed our film opening slightly, opting to keep it simple so that later when editing we can make it much more complex.

At the end, when asked who gave the best pitch/who had the best film opening idea; our class voted for our group - which was a pleasant surprise as I didn't think they'd vote for us. We had to think on our feet when giving our pitch, because we didn't have a powerpoint, or at the time a title, and so for something that we wanted to make sure didn't come off as rushed; I think we succeeded.
