Builders and Pie Makers

Yesterday was the day we had pitched our ideas and, while its upsetting my ideas did not get chosen, i am quite happy with the roles i was given and the projects i am apart of, especially how i believe they would defiantly help build on my skills as an editor and also with time managing and people skills with being a producer on another project.

The first project i am part of is for the savorists energy bar, and the project sounds like it would not work, but in actuality it would be amazing if we can pull it off. based on the play/film called Sweeny Tod: Demon Barber Of Fleet street (2007) in which a couple in Victorian Britain has fallen on hard times as their pie shop is closing down when suddenly a business man comes before them with the savourist bar, both then get the idea to steal the bar, kidnapping the salesman and selling it off as their own. If the project would be like the film, i would imagine getting a filming location like the Victorian would not be difficult as the university is quite next to a mariner museum so it would be acquiring access to film there would be the main challenge. On the editing side of things, i would imagine the colour tone to be quite dark and dirty.

The other project that i am producing sounds like a health and safety nightmare to do but if we manage a risk free solution we can get through this project with out an actual builders accident. the product in question is about a hand cream called nursem. the advert starts with two builders getting ready for work, one of the builders busts out the cream and applies it to his hands, one builder accidentally brushes the mans arm and is taken in by how soft his hands are when he is struck by a hammer and taken to hospital. while in there a nurse comes in with the hand cream, amazed by how soft his hands could be, he falls off the bed reaching the cream. i feel like this project could be an easy one to do with the back of the uni looking like a builders site and the possibility of mocking up a hospital as there was a mock up for one in our seminar room.
