Potential Preliminary Task Idea

Tim and I have decided after a lengthy phone conversation tonight that our previous idea of 2 people meeting on a street corner cannot be done because the scenery lacks an essential part of the task; a character opening a door.

Instead, we ran through some idea's on the phone and decided the most practical would be to shoot the task at the college. We have the idea of a student-teacher conference taking place in an unused classroom at the college. This idea of using the classroom (with permission) gives us the scenery needed to shoot the piece. The characters can walk through the door and sit down opposite each other to exchange some dialogue regarding the students progress. We think this is a good idea because we will be able to utilise our knowledge of the required shots needed for the Preliminary Task.

Tim and I were unable to contact Dulcie and Alice so we still need to put this idea past them. We believe that it is good, achieveable idea that needs to be decided on as a group. We are hoping to see Dulcie and Alice soon so that we can negotiate times that we are free during college to shoot the footage as members of the group live too far away to be expected to stay locally and complete the Task; as transport there and back is not feasable, nor is the time. It is unfair to put any members of the group out and make the task unnecessarily difficult for them, so Tim and I think college time is the most suitable for all 4 members of the group.
