Discussion:
After finding out what trailer we were going to develop we started our final treatment.
We decided to maybe implement some ideas of the other trailers so that it would have a personal feeling.
Jade decided to start making a start on the storyboard as her trailer was the chosen one but we would use that as the basis of the final piece.

During this meeting we began to think about what we gained from the audience feedback during the our presentation, and in what way we could use that feedback to improve our final treatment. When this was done we moved off of the development stage of this project and onto the Pre-production stage. In this stage we had to task each member with what piece of work we would do individually. After the discussion we came to a conclusion that both of us would do the audience research, Elizabeth would be in charge of the mood boards and treatment, Jade would be in charge of the animatic and storyboards, and Nyima would be in charge of the mock ups of the front covers and film posters.

Details:
During this lesson we decided that the professional trailer that we were using as a template for our trailer did not match well with how we planned the story sequence, because of this we decided to look for another trailer that would be suitable for our trailer. After looking though several trailers we decided that the most suitable would be the saw 4 teaser trailer. For media homework we began to task ourselves with thinking about how we should sequence our story board in order to match the pacing of the trailer.

VIDEO LOG 2
In this video we were talking about how the shooting went like what went went wrong and went right, we also talk about all the scene that we had to change for example we took out the adoption because we couldn't find a location that would be suitable for this, also we took out the mother scenes as we could not find a proper character that will be perfect for this role.
