pre-production day 2
this is the second day of P2.
even though it is only the day 2 of lesson, i can feel the intensity of the stress piling up. its coming! my group have only 2 more days to interim 1 presentation. i felt that there was still quite alot to be done..
so, after brainstorming the ideas ytd, i shared with them with my team members and Julian in class today. Had some feedbacks frm them. My idea was good to work with.. however there was one thing that was right on our agenda that hindered us from continuing on. That one thing would be ... would be... time.
Time is definitely a factor that our group has considered in when we chose the story to work with. Even though my was workable, time made it not so workable. there were so many things (talents, location recee) that had to be covered in my story and given only 6 days to finish up on production and post-production made things worse. thus, it was in no doubt that my story could not be done.
My team had some troubles initially when we were to choose our story. We were considering stories contributed by Novem, Rachel and Suhbah. After some discussion, we decided to work with novem's idea... only to realise that the storyline that we edited later on were very off from the original storyline and the original morale of the tale. We really wasted quite some time on something that has no headings to it. However, my team worked as one. We gathered our thoughts and re-picked a tale and chose a storyline after class. The aesopfable that we chose was contributed by suhbah - its the BOY WHO CRIED WOLF. our idea were to do a stop motion as we felt that it would be actually interesting to direct objects instead of humans. Our stop motion would consists of objects like apple and most interestingly, we will have a production set design. We felt that having a production set design would be much captivating and much interesting rather than just shooting the apples on the kitchen tables. That wold be so boring..
However, some of my team members did not really vote for stop motion. They felt that they wanted to do smth that is more related to FYP - something like drama. One of my team member had no confidence in stop motion and thus, have doubts of doing stop motion, initially. we only concluded on stop motion when all the doubts were cleared and all the questions answered.
understood is that stop motion is quite tedious and needs lots of preparation works, if not, the process of doing it would be hell.
after we concluded on the style we want to work, we split up the jobs so that we know where we are heading towards by tml (wednesday 27/2/08).
not to forget that interim presentation 1 is on THURSDAY (28/2/08)!
here is the breakdown of the jobs allocated to each of us...

shots composition: Novem

as can be observed, i am in charged of the design of our production set. i have drawn and designed the production set.. it is still not the final, may consider for changes if my team members are not pleased with it tml. However, before till then, let me show what i have designed.
