Choosing a Brief

We had to decide between a list of options and choose 3 of the 5, therefore we chose:
- A promotion package for a new film.
- An extract from a new documentary TV programme.
- The first two pages of a new local newspaper.

After choosing the 3 options we had to decide on the initial ideas for each choice, therefore making it easier for us to choose the final option. For the first option, a promotion package for a new film, we decided on the genre of drama. We chose drama as it can be watched by many audiences and also is a genre that can include a range of topics therefore we wouldnt be sticking to one thing.

Another option we agreed on was the documentary for a tv programme, our initial idea for this was to create a documentary similar to the ones on the tele for example nature programmes on animals and sealife. Therefore because of this we had the idea to film in a nearby sealife centre and create a similar documentary.

The final option, a new local newspaper was favoured more as we didnt feel comfortable with the video options. Also as it being similar to last year i think we could produce a good and better peice of work with that experience. Therefore we decided on this option for the coursework and began thinking on ideas we could produce.
