NEW ASSIGNMENT: VIDEO PRODUCTION! Week 1, Wednesday January 5th 2011

I have now started a new assignment which is video production. In this video production assignment, I will be put into a group and will go through the process of making a 30 second advert for a certain brand. We are allowed to choose from either 4 of these brands: Diet Coke, a phone (Any phone), Sure (the deodarant) or Kit Kat. I have chosen Kit Kat.

For 1 of my ideas, I play in the advert as a character who buys a Kit Kat from the vending machines in Coasters, when I take my Kit Kat out the vending machine, a bully happens to be walking towards my way and sees the Kit Kat in my hand. He suddenly runs into me, snatches the Kit Kat out of my hand and knocks me down on the floor. But what he doesn't realise is that  I bought two Kit Kats and the other one is just coming out the vending machine, my character grabs the second Kit Kat, runs outside the doors and shots at the bully "STOP! FIEND!". I throw the Kit Kat and the Kit Kat knocks the bully on the head making him fall down unconscious. Then there's a pack shot that says "Kit Kat's. You want two."

Today, I developed these ideas and looked at adverts made by people who did this course last year. I was put into a group of three and we all discussed what we thought of the adverts made by previous students. Because we analysed them, I learned that I could see the flaws they made which I could avoid. I also started my treatment and learned about the difference between a treatment and a proposal.
