The Pitch…

Today we presented our pitch for Classified to everyone. I think the actual pitch went quite well and was really well received. It enforced my belief that me and Luke have made a strong story that will hopefully play out well in terms of transmedia story telling. The feedback we received was quite constructive such as understanding that we need to tread carefully when starting a conspiracy theory website and the people we use as our characters. As the story has real world aspects there may be a dangerous element as people may feel it is real and take it on board. So we need to make it quite apparent that it is not real and it is fictional to avoid a potential disaster.

In addition the other thing I found really helpful was the comment that was made to really understand how we are going to deliver the information to the audience, in particular the physical elements. Maybe we should think about mailing it to the audience or ensuring what is delivered in class is done subtly and is of substance and intrigue. This is to keep the audience enticed by actually using subtle hints rather than huge chunks of information. Overall, I am excited to begin the process of producing the material and getting the story going.
