SKILLS DEVELOPMENT PLANNING

during the planning stage I feel my skills really developed and it gave me an added impetus heading into the filming and editing stages. The main key skill I learned was to think outside the box and have a more creative mind-set. This was necessary as we didn't want our title-sequence to be to cliché and we wanted to stand out amongst the rest and sometimes a creative mentality makes the difference between a memorable title-sequence and an easily forgettable title-sequence. I also learned to be persistent as many of my ideas were written off by the teachers and my group mates as they were either to far-fetched or inappropriate for the title sequence, when you spend a lot of time trying to provide creative input and its rejected its often very frustrating and those are the moments when you have to be persistent and keep going.
