Today we were separated into 4-man groups with which we would continue this project with. My group consisted of myself, Edie, Tabby and Liv. I am somewhat outnumbered as the only boy in the group, but this was inevitable as I am also the only boy in the class. Initially we found it difficult to generate and merge our ideas together but with a little push from Phil (teacher) this became easier. We all have different interests and talents meaning we can all bring something different to the table.
At the start of the week we were tasked with the challenge of formulating a pitch by Friday in which we would display two ideas that we wish to carry on from this stage. This pitch would be directed to Luke, a man with industry experience in this field and an integral cog in making the videos happen and helping us to achieve them to the the highest standard possible. Considering we all had 3 initial ideas of our own that we created over the summer, this meant we had to crunch down 12 ideas to only 2. This proved to be a mean feat and was quite an exhausting process. A helpful method was to try to merge some of the elements from different videos together not only as a form of compromise, but also to make the videos stronger and with more content as a whole. After agonising over ideas and songs we eventually settled on two as a group and began to make two separate brains storms. We devised one video of the indie-rock genre, and one that falls within the hybrid of jazz/synthpop. The information from these thought showers would then be converted into two separate Prezi's which we would use to visually display our ideas to Luke on Friday.
