Discussion on project briefs and ideas
We decided on the theme and group members for the cooperation meeting on Friday last week, decided to use ‘Utopia and Dystopia’ as the theme, and successfully invited special effects students to join the group.
We discussed a simple idea and storyboard of our group’s progress with the teacher in this week’s class.
We try to add more visual effects to the film through some special effects, such as green screen, glitch art, etc.
Sara provided us with some useful feedback that required further consideration.
- How does one combine 3D with the desired three renderings and two effects?
- Will the transition between styles be abrupt?
- In which world is utopia found? The audience can choose which of the two worlds they believe is utopia, but we must still determine which world is utopia when we create it.
Sara also helped us with some technical issues at the same time. If we are unable to book a green screen classroom, we can seek her assistance.
Following this discussion, I have a better idea of where the short film should be improved in the future. Simultaneously, we discussed these issues with the team members, and we unanimously decided to call the warm and everyday world behind Utopia.
Following that, the plot was revisited, and I revised and refined the storyboard.
