today in class my group and I pitched our idea to the head of
production. he mentioned several factors that we all agreed on as a group would
be a good development for the group and that would help to improve out idea.
The biggest change that he bought to our idea was that the piece
he thought was too linear. He thought that we didn’t need to boy in the park
and with the troubles at home and instead we could just focus on the ice cream
van. He said that he liked the idea a lot of the ice cream van and said we
can play around with this idea a lot and there is so much that we can add to
this hallucinogenic kind of video. I thought this was a good idea as it would
have been difficult to have fit all of the different sets in one day. He also wondered how we would get the
transitions of each of our three sets which made us also think that it could be
better to do the whole idea as it could be strange just cutting between the two
completely different locations. This was also helped by the fact that he
pointed out that all of the stuff about the boy is all just a lead up to the
van and he said we should just go straight to the van and the studio. 
He also recommended that we should add a flowing relaxed
contemporary kind of dance that went with the hallucinogenic feel of the music
video. This we all agreed as a group would be good kind of dance to add to the
video. There was also an idea that we could try and add a collide scope to help
the effect that we are trying to create in this video.
He also noticed that our song was a little bit too long at around
3:51. Though we decided it could easily be cut down by a fair amount as the end
of the song there is a large amount of just instrumental music that we will be
able to cut out at the end. There is around 40 seconds of this at the end so we
were thinking we would be able to cut it down to from 3:51 to around 3:20
seconds and gradually fade the music out.
He also recommended and ending that we come out of all of the
transitions that we had done in the past quickly and just come back to the ice
cream man handing you the ice cream. I think this a good idea but don’t think
that he should be handing them the ice cream but instead just have him looking
out the van in the distance.
