Week 6.1 1/2 Final Preparation for Presentation (Introduction/Conclusion of Video)

(Ruth and Gen) Introduction/ Conclusion:

So after discussing our presentation plan with the tutors on tuesday, Gen and I realised we needed to add a better introduction, and a breakdown of our product to conclude our video.

After brainstorming some brief ways of how we could better introduce our product idea, we realised we wanted to minimise anything before our video in order to metaphorically 'throw our audience in the deep end.' We felt this would provide viewers with a more authentic viewing experience. They could better understand the confusion played out in our scenario and therefore better appreciate the assistance our product will provide. So we decided to go a simple rhetorical question to open our presentation 'In an emergency, could you get out?' Supported by a brief 'Introducing Infralens' so that viewers would have some context of what product was being shown in the video.

Introduction Animation:

To conclude our product video, we decided we needed to go back to highlight some of the fundamental features our product would provide. To do this we took freeze frames from our video (giving visual references to what was being discussed) and added additional information in text which we intend to read out in our presentation on Friday. We finished the video off by linking back to our rhetorical question at the beginning, and adding a call to action 'Help us make Infralens a reality. So when you need to get out, we're there to help'. - Ruth

With the intention to talk over the first and last parts of the video during the presentation, it pressure people to have read all the information on each section. Originally, we wanted to have ambient music playing in the background though we could not find many that fit our aesthetic.This way we will also hopefully be more engaging to the audience. - Gen
