Day 11.

Ok, It's my turn again. Well, for today, there is not much to write about as it was presentation for final two ideas today. Ok, for class time, we had presentation and basically what was said was people's final idea that they came up with and the reasons for doing so with storyline plot and so forth. Amanda said to us that we concentrated much on the style's we are doing instead of giving a good clear storyline. That is, she gave an example stating that it would be better than we gave a good storyline then a flashy style of doing it adding effects and stuff and that without storyline it would seem as an white elephant effect.

So, ya. Point taken. It seems that everyone's presentation touched more on the style of doing the idea rather then to explore on storyline. (That's what I noticed) Surely, as written above, yes storyline has been magnified greatly in a making of a good video. And i agree. Storyline first and then we can work on to the style we are doing. However, style is something that is important in showing how different our works are from the rest. But regardless, this can be thought of later rather then current because storyline is the main thing in mind now and for how our styles would be like. So yes, Amanda certainly made a point there in showing us that storyline for now is most important compared to other aspects of the video.

So, ya about my presentation, it is still rather not clear on how I am going to approach my idea's yet. I asked if i could do still photographs as a video but was rejected. And so I had to approach one new idea. But, for the other, it is about a group of cops solving a new case that as been presented to them. These cops will then start to find clues about it and go around the school searching for clues that will help them solve the crime. And these so called "clues" are then our portfolio. So in describing these "clues" they start to talk about the work and then each of us will have time talking about it. So, when these clues start to add up, all of our chosen portfolio will be introduced as well as going through the crime and almost reaching to the end of the story whereby the mastermind is found and it is a person from another school whereby he/she came to steal works and wanted to use them for his/her own assignment. And was caught at the end and so forth apologised. Ending the story.

Sounds will play a big part fast and slow paced, with some explosive starts to the video. Of course, camera angles would be important too. Budget wise isn't that important I guess as not much props are needed. And that's about it for today and for my first idea.

Let's hope i do well for my presentation tomorrow!
