Initial ideas
- Of screen monologue on images that convey the situation.
- On screen monologue " " " " " " " " " .
- Written text to prevent voice over.
- 3D animation.
- Use of student support i.e sports students wearing ACE T-shirts.
- A simpathetic response by creating a common enemy.
Group discussion
In order to achieve an ideal number of actors an agreemeant was formed between other participants in this project. It was agreed that person A would recieve help from Person B so long as they both helped each other out. In addition to this additional camera crew members can also be assembled in order to decrease work load. Another advantage to this is that fewer people will be taking out equipment at one time, which means fewer people will be left jobless for a certain period of time.
Leagal and Ethical
Since the idea devised requires images of people from the schools in Uganda we need to use stock footage that we can hopefully find on the internet. The issue is that this footage might not be privelleged for public use, which could cause issues in the future. Also obtaining the privellege to use certain imaes may coast money and since this is a no budget production there would be no chance of obtaining such images.
An ethical issue that we have been told to avoid is the use of images rellaying messages such as Africans only play sports such as football or they are in some way physically suffering. In order to do this we must use footage displaying healthy, bright children who lack the facilities they require.
Past and present practices
This idea requires fewer camera angles, after the start and is a very slow pace edit. The use of calm yet somewhat sad music can be used to set the mood for the viewers. In terms of editing techniques a slow zoom and pan will be used on static images. There will also be use of colour changes and chroma keying in order to stylise the use of green screen effects.
The actual idea
The advert starts with an over the top student throwing a tantrum just, because his college doesn't have a certain piece of equipment that he wishes to use. He immediately storms out of the college to a park bench where one of his friends are having lunch. He then complains to his friend about the situation to which is friends finds a rediculouse matter. Suddenlly the moment is frozen in time and a man comes on screen. He then explains how others are worse of in Uganda and presents them with a solution to help with this issue. In order to do this he will present the charity as a solution and state it's achievements as well as how viewers can aid this cause. It finally ends with a presentation of the information on screen i.e. website address, phone number etc.
How this attempts to work is that it attemps to touch the viewers with the mind set of "what if I didn't have what I have" this is also a potential slogan that may be used in the video. By doing this we attempt to relate to the audience in an indirect way forcing them to think about the possibilities that could arise.
Script and shot list
The script and shot list are hand written and will be presented as pictures.

Risk assessment
The job is a very low risk production, but the risk assessment will be presented in a picture.
