Pitch Evaluation

On Friday 31st of October, we presented our pitch to the rest of the class. Within this, we included details on both the concept of the opening sequence, but also a background of the basic idea of the story of the whole film, including thoughts on iconography, costumes and locations. We chose to use a flash forward in our opening sequence and have the whole film then building up to the events shown. We decided to do this to create an enigma. We found some locations that we thought would be suitable for this film, however after presenting this idea to the class, we found that the majority thought that there was too much greenery around some of the locations we had found, especially in relation to the genre of the film we were making. In response to these criticisms, we have found a new location, based in a large industrial area, and we feel this will be far more suitable. We also presented to the class our idea of titles and one liner and based these on our audience research. The class agreed with the people who filled out questionnaires and said that they liked our title, which was 'The Come Up' and also the one liner, which was 'Welcome to Lad Land'. So far we have had good feedback and also feel ourselves that our idea will work well.
