Today we had our second meeting. I saw new faces, those being Sebastian, Juan, and Mia, but I also saw some old faces those being Carolina and Andrea.
We first began through Carolina where I already had an idea of what her story was. She told her idea to everyone and the different things she added and adjusted from her original concept. Out of everyone she was the one that was most ahead and had filmed weeks prior. What she was mostly struggling with was her idea for the CCR which we recommended her to make it seem as if she was still in the asylum and answer questions that way.
Then we went on to Juan who's story, who is working with Lydia from the first meeting. His story was practically the same as what Lydia told us but with some tweaks. Him and Lydia were also done with filming and according to him he found it to be a very enjoyable time. Him just like Carolina needed help on his CCR which we suggested him to make a Back to the Future type of theme or use the glasses from his story and answer things that way.
After Juan, Sebastian went. His idea was one I was yet to hear and it involved a similar story to mine where the first scene was the crime scene and the rest of the movie was the 5 hours before the crime. What Sebastian mainly needed advice on was filming since he had not started yet, but here we suggested that the scene that involved a police officer he should try and contact the sheriff office and see if he can use some of their equipment. We also suggested something along these lines for his CCR by having the officer ask him questions while in the back of the car.
Next after Sebastian was me. Here I explained to my group my story and what I had done in the last week. I mentioned that what I really needed help with was the CCR, so I had a couple of ideas brought to my attention. First came the idea to make a draw my life type of thing from YouTube which I found interesting and the one after that was the idea to make a posterboard that would represent Asher's and Austin's project from the first scene of Pushover. For now, I like these ideas and will look into them a bit more, but as of right now I'm not a 100% sure what to do.
After I went, Mia went and here she told us her story and what she had done. She also talked about the obstacles she went through trying to film, but was unsuccessful in the end. Due to this she was definitely in need of help when filming and we suggested that she should be patient and have fun so she doesn't get frustrated with any inconvenience. Out of everyone she was the most complete when it came to her CCR as she already had an idea and pretty much had her overall plan set.
Finally, we get to Andrea who was our last group member to present. Andrea had done a majority of her filming done and was a little hesitant on her last scene. We advised her to try and have an officer knock on her door and then the opening would end, she was unsure of this but was taking it into consideration. Then for her CCR, like most of us, she was unsure. Here we suggested that she could have one of the officers ask her questions and make it almost like an interview/interrogation.
That was pretty much what this session was about. We had a lot of important pieces of ideas being suggested to everyone. It was nice and it definitely helped me in terms of how I could improve and think of the CCR.
