Commentary on Planning Process 1

At first we discussed initial ideas – basic plot outlines
– how we wanted to film it
– Where we wanted to film it
– Brainstorming ideas for characters
– Storyline openings

This was all done on rough paper with lots of ideas jotted down. After brainstorming we got a good feel for what sort of plot we wanted and we all agreed on a basic outline and these were written up on a neater piece of paper.
- this process went well, we had many ideas but the difficult task was picking which ideas was the best.
- Also, we had to make sure we didn’t “dismiss” anyone’s ideas, everyone’s ideas had potential until the final process when we, as a group, decided the best plot to go with.
