INSTRUCTIONS


Project 2: Pitch Bible

For this project, we were required to create presentation slides about of the specifications of our final project. They were already pretty much planned during Project 1, so it was mostly about expanding on and finalising the ideas and pitching them in a video.

Reflection

Experience
I enjoyed this project more because I am not very good at writing, like what we need to do in Project 1 to express our ideas. This project was rushed because we were working on projects from other modules at the same time. In this project, we were more visual-focused. So, I tried to include settings, characters, etc. in the slides.

Observation
I think the second task was pretty easy because the third task took a lot of time and effort. Especially considering my workload in order to gauge the workload for the next task. This is a good way to estimate the time required, besides guessing based on the MIB.

Discovery
I learned about dolly camera movements, and I also learned what story beats are and their role in creating a complete story. This makes sense because creating a storyboard means planning scenes and shots, and I can use this knowledge in the future.
