Pitching

We presented our final initial idea; we received positive feedback from Mike, as he liked our idea. He said that the idea is effective as innovative, nobody came up with the idea of filming in a maze in Hurtwood before, so that will add something to our portfolio. Mike also appreciated the idea for costumes as we planned in detailed what the main character and the antagonist should wear (night suite with slipper and a total black suite with posh shoes and a hat). Our idea is seen as well thought in detailed wise and different. The only issues we found were the fact of filming at night time as it will give us less time to film, finding the location, the maze, that is near by or a back up location that could give the same effect in the case the maze won’t work as a possibility. Also filming at night is much more complicated than at daylight, as we won’t have professional lighting to give us enough brightness to show clearly the movements and face expression of the characters.

The positive aspects of our idea are hat is well planned and original, but still need farther development.

After Mike pitch we decided to look in details to some possible mazes where we could film the thriller and we started contacting them to make sure we were aware of all the possible problems and have enough information in case to give to the school. While we were looking we found that mazes are too far away from where we live so we came out with the idea of a vineyard, finding one closer and we decided to contact them and they reply positively that we could film at theirs with no problems. We also looked at mirrors that could have bought for a cheap prise and choose the perfect one, that we could possibly carry around and be full length. Finally we looked at possible casting for the thriller, as we wanted to have everything ready for Matt and Luke pitch the next couple of days.
