Today we had our first group meeting in class. We got into groups with our peers and discussed our process so far, gave each other feedback, and suggested techniques and ideas that would improve the final result of our projects.
After I explained the idea for my film opening, my group gave me positive feedback. They thought I was headed in the right direction and told me they were excited to see how I would piece everything together in the end. The group told me that I need to make sure that the acting is on point with this style of a piece and that the sound and Mise-en-scene elements will need to play a big part in telling my story. I completely agreed with them and thanked them for all their comments and suggestions that I should take in order to further improve my work.
Once we concluded our discussion, I noticed how important and helpful this activity was. Talking and conversing on our projects assisted in making sure we had everything we needed and how to execute our ideas correctly. For example, in our discussion, one of the members focused on the fact that we only have two minutes to present our ideas since it is a film opening. Therefore, we can't reveal too much of our story since technically there is a full-length film that follows these first two minutes. Receiving feedback and learning new ways to go about things is really important, which is why I really enjoyed this activity and I look forward to the next group meeting with different peers that will offer new opinions.
