Filming the thriller

All group members

It is very important that we keep track of what is being dealt with within our meetings so that we know the
meetings are being put to proper use and we are doing as we said we would as well as keeping us organised.

Initially our group didn't work so well together as a whole. Whilst myself and Emma found each other easy to work with we found ourselves struggling to deal with the frustrations Harry brought onto us. We found that often he was changing the story-line without asking or even speaking to either of us he was simply declaring these changes as though they were nothing new. This was a highly frustrating aspect to work with as it meant that Harry was on a completely different page to us, as well as delaying us from being able to move onto other elements of our planning as we would have to re-sort the story-line out all over again, plus the added confusion this was adding onto the group. This further displays the importance of having group meetings without them Harry would have created a completely different concept to our opening sequence to the one myself and Emma believed we had created as a group.

Here are some of the different elements to our planning:
