Rough cuts

You need to provide clear detail on each rough cut - look at the Eval Qs again ---- which of these will require specific detail like this?

Give a general intro, then cover each rough cut separately, starting with the earliest.

I/We produced a range of rough cuts before settling on a final cut - testing out ideas and checking for elements that needed tighter/different media language to enable audiences to follow our encoded preferred reading. Each rough cut is detailed below, including information on:

  • key section/s
  • any FX used (differently than before)
  • any added media (sound, fonts, images etc)
  • evidence of audience feedback
  • main points from audience feedback
  • our conclusion on what to change for the next cut (including any planned new/reshoots + narrative tweaks)
