    Group Roles


Zak Jakubowski - This pitch was my vision so I typed all of apart from the music, target audience and Mise en scene. I also delivered all of the pitch to the class; explaining why I used certain characters, camera angles, location etc. Yet I still had question arise at the end which is good because even one question from the audience could highlight a hole in the storyline and make the opening a lot better. I answered these questions with Barney and Elijah.

Elijah Potter -  I did the target audience, researching on similar topics to gain the ideal target audience. I also made ideas for particular mise en scene, including costume ideas and props. I also made a suggest for music.

Barney Flood - For this pitch, I didn't present any of the ideas to the class, but I helped answer some questions the class had at the end.
