PLANNING CONTINUED

...And did some Soap Opera planning. Q1

When we started our preliminary trailer I had to direct one of the scenes in it, I did this by studying Hollyoaks, choosing a scenes I liked and by copying the conventions. Re-create that scene in my own way.

Planning for my main product (Soap Trailer)

This was my original plan for lefthand bay; I would choose 3 idea’s from the list and develop then, I didn’t use the same characters or setting though.

Plan for my first scene
