Opening Sequence - Pitch Feedback

- Good locations.

- Will they bump into each other too much before meeting?

They will not bump into each other at all. They will almost meet or be in similar locations at different times, but you will not actually see them meet in the opening sequence.

- Will they let you film in the Shard?

We have contacted the main desk at the Shard and they gave us permission.

- For the sunset times, make sure you look up the times correctly since in winter it gets dark          very quickly.

- The shots are very hard so make sure the cameraman knows what he is doing.

- Good strong character ideas.

- Good development in the story line.

- Are you going to have credits?

Yes, over the establishing shots in the beginning of the sequence.

- Romance is an original idea.

- Detailed ideas regarding location.

- Complex shot types.

- Contrasting characters - "opposites attract"

- It would be a good idea to practice the complex shots.

We have tested using a split screen in our preliminary filming task.

- Well structured.

- Who will be playing the main characters?

Our group members Josh Burch and Sara Amer.

- Like the idea of a split screen when completing different activities and then joining shots when they meet.

- Like the idea of meeting in Hyde Park. It's very romantic/typical.

- Will you have dialogue as cafes are quite noisy?

The cafe shot will only have one line of dialogue. However, this may be an issue so we may film this elsewhere instead.

- If your main cameraman is not filming, who will be confident in shooting the pull focus shot?

We have practiced the shot and will be able to do it.
