Post-Production Processes Seminar

In this mornings seminar, in groups of three we had 45 minuets to create a PowerPoint presentation that consists of a series of images collected from the internet:

We had to organise our material to tell the story and prepare the rehearsed timed presentation to last 30 seconds exactly.

Julius gave use the following brief:

Collate, Correct, Divide, Decide

Collate- Gathering the original source material. Forming some sort of administrative order.

Correct- amending the original material in some way that makes it relevant to the desired purpose.

Divide- ruthlessly eliminate any original or amended source material that will no longer fit the purpose

Decide- Shape the material that made the cut so that this material will be affect the intended audience

Every single moment of this 30 seconds presentation has to count for something. Imagine your life or death hangs on every single decision you make.
After each presentation we will decide/vote to decide who lives and who dies.


We decided to go for a animal theme and told a story about a lion that goes in search for food and then gets hit by a car. Sounds a bit cruel. We used timings to ensure the presentation lasted exactly 30 seconds. We also used sounds and text to tell the story. Once we shown the presentation we were told that we were the only group who survived.
