There was quite clearly one evident problem that seemed to occur from our anamatic, and this was the lack of visable structure. Some of our shots appear twice, but this was made clear to them that this infact was not a jump cut but actually a planned part of our future production.
A comment was made that it appeared to be full of 'just movement' scenes, and that the actual plot was quite unclear. This made it hard for them to grasp the initial idea we had and understand what it is we planned to do, therefore we had to add explanations to make it clearer.
Admittedly, we found ourselves in quite a rush to finish our anamatic. This meant that we hadn't placed in titles anywhere and things like that, therefore they will need to be added in at a later time.
Our anamatic skips from one spot to the next in certain areas, which is of course unintentional and infact due to the fact that we experienced problems with viedo capture and upload. We got told that our idea was 'original', but we were unsure whether to interpret this as a positive or negative thing. Yes, originally is something that many film writers desire, but it may just be bordering on the line of 'silliness' which is what we have to be careful of. We want it to be funny, not tacky.
The anamatic needs to be restructured and reviewed, and as a group we will need to shift through various ideas before we decide on the final cut. We need to make sure we don't lose sight of our initial idea, and make sure that our story makes sense - and avoid too much 'fluff' in the opening'. We need to portray a proper and desirable story in 2 short minutes, and due to the genre of our film it will need to be fast paced and include voiceovers.
