I think that my pitch went well, but I could have been more organised, as my notes were heavily split between the notes section and the words on the slides. Switching gazes between two screens was quite frantic and also a little embarrassing when I realised I was on camera too.
WWW: Good research, lots of concept done.
EBI: Start working on scripting so that we can get audio out of the way, test style in harmony to see how it moves, and also test how the colours work with a background.
Next: Work on a script and read it out loud to see if it fits the 90 seconds, because I have a lot of research that needs narrowing.
Mat liked the side profiles that look like a Grecian Urn - but he also would have liked it if we could get the urn colours to work with the characters. On Grecian urns, black ink is used to colour in the males, and white the females. When I was researching styles, I found it hard to tell the difference between Hector and Achilles on their urns, so I chose against it. But thinking more about my idea in the presentation of having a simple background using watercolour (possibly a sky gradient). I was thinking instead I could make this a clay background with an overlay of cracks/chips - and have a Grecian patterned border like the one in my slides. This will look like the top and bottom of the urns.
Finally, I really like the working title, 'The Wars That Burnt a City', as it shows my argument of myth vs history in warS instead of wars, and also doesn't solely talk about Troy, because I do want to open the documentary with the argument.
