First Meeting

When the team met up for the first time we discussed our interpretations on the term "greatest day" as given in the brief. we exchanged ideas and elaborated on them until we found a favorite.

 I suggested a motivational sports video and gave an example of one I had seen previously. The group agreed it was the most realistic of the ideas and so we started to build a storyboard. Charlie suggested having a character and a twist so it wasn't just a collaboration of sport clips.  The team liked the idea and we discussed how we could link the two ideas and made it relevant to "the greatest day". After brainstorming we decided to have a character enjoy playing sports at a casual level but never believed he was good enough. His girlfriend who always supported him had a argument which resulted in him being chucked out of her house and him going into depression. He then picks himself up, trains hard and comes first in the sport of choice and wins back him girlfriend.

 We then discussed who is doing what role. Despite our roles on paper we agreed to help each other out and swap when necessary as some of the team have more experience than others.
