Thursday 22/9/10

In the morning, As a group, we got together to discuss and plan out films (EG. location, TIme, Scripts) I suggested we film at a river because i thought it would be a good idea to show the affects of peer pressure leading towards drowning just to retrieve something that can easily be replaced. We all decided on the story which is now about stealing/peer pressure. I chose to write the script and we all read it and checked it. I suggested another idea whilst writing the script which was to change the types of characters around. Like making the school idiot into a school bully which would be interesting. I also added stage directions and camera angles so when it comes to filming, we fully know what to do and How we are going to do it. Later that day, We received a brief from Derek Budd, He talked about the Youthoria website and gave us some advice on how our video can be accepted. One piece of key infomation i picked up was how blind people can be affected by the video as they cant see it. So we have to provide a written version. It's so we dont single out anyone by having a disability. I also learnt when we re-check our plan, I make sure everyone  is happy with it to save future disagreements. I also made sure every person has copies of work we did throughout the day.
