Omniya Tajni M2: Identify potential client questions and amend pitch and proposal  documentation Before going off to pitch my short film script to the panel, I practiced pitching it to a couple of peers to try and guess some questions that may be asked & see any last minute improvements I could make.  This was a good help as it has allowed me to see what I have missed and what I could improve on.  Questions that my peers have asked/what could be potential client questions: 1.  Why did you decide to add a clown to this short film? 2.  Because its so hard to film in train stations, what would you do if you don't get a license for filming some of the scenes there ? 3.  How do you think your film will appeal to people not from your target audience? The answers I gave:  1. 'After researching urban legend stories and doing my audience research, I came to a conclusion that having a clown in an urban legend, would create that theme and...

Omniya Tajni P1:  Explain different ideas for an original media product based on a client brief M1: Discuss strengths and weaknesses of the different ideas My interpretation of the client brief Within the brief I have interpreted that the client has asked me to pitch my urban legend script. In this pitch, I have understood that I will need to explain where I developed my final idea, my inspiration and the research I took that created the final product. I believe that I am open to my own choices, this is on how I want to present my ideas and what materials I decided to use as visual stimulus. In this case I chose to do a Prezi PowerPoint. However, the boundaries are that my pitch has a time limit of 3-5 minutes and I must be able to explain how I managed to get the final idea with the research that I undertook and be ready to answer questions given during the pitch. My possible ideas for my client brief interpretation Before I decided on the idea for my urba...

Omniya Tajni M3: Show an understanding of feedback and be able to respond to questions After I delivered my pitch I believed I could have done better due to being nervous and I felt this effected me, especially when it came to answering the questions,  After doing my pitch I was asked 2 questions regarding the information I gave them.  The questions: 1. You described a few locations that you intend to film in, have you identified any risks that might be associated with filming at Stratford, for instance or at a public railway station? 2. How do you think you could promote your film? The answers I gave: 1.  Yeah, after research I saw that if you wanted to film in train stations, you only need 3 people in the crew and when u have more they will charge you per person, if you have 3 people it will be £150 and if you have 5 it will cost £250. 2.  Because I am doing it about snap chat , I decided to promote through social media  The answers...

Omniya Tajni D1: Discuss the client considerations for the creation of the product from the pitch After reading the client brief, it asked me to translate an urban legend story into a 5 min short film script for it to be held in the East London Film Festival. I believe that by reading this, I must have included locations that are only located in East London. I have developed my ideas from 2 different urban legend stories I found when researching. The urban legend stories are called 'the baby sitter & the man upstairs' & 'the clown statue'. At first my only interest was in the babysitter and the man upstairs but after planning the synopsis of what my film was going to be about, I had a feeling that something is missing that urban legend theme. After realising this, I did more research where I found the story of the clown statue, as it also linked with the idea of my film and after audience research I believed that it would be something interesting to ad...

Omniya Tajni P2: Create a proposal and client documentation to support the pitch I have created my treatment on a presentation.  The requirements of the client brief After reading the client brief I believe that my script has been successful and I am now short listed, but in order for my film to be produced I must pitch my script idea to a panel of industry specialists. If my pitch was to be successful, my script would be presented in this years East London Urban Film Festival. I understand that the panel is interested on where my inspiration came from and how I have developed it into my final idea. I must discuss the thoughts I have made along the way of making the script and the research I made on different urban legend stories & how I have converted this to meet the urban legend genre. On top of my pitch presentation, I must have produced a proposal and some evidence on the plan of my script.  What my story is about My script is called ‘th...
