Evaluation on the team meeting 

Within the meeting, i have talked about giving ideas for interactive video production, based on what stories to tell within the production, such as 'a boy ran away from ran and has a choose to turn right or left (one of they has bad ending)' and it has have a story behind it. Also the group made an agreement on what type of project we going to produce 'Short Film'. although there are disagreement on what the each person within the group don't want or does not understand anything such as genre. 

Yes, I wrote down the ideas from others that added to the idea and it shows development to create one big idea projects. it also shows each person has 1-2 idea linked to the idea so no-one feels left out.

Also, I have contributed to the group discussion. These are what i have contributed: Music and sound - should there be heart beats to make the video tenses, should there be pros based on the bad positron 'where with the bad person' what type of weapon would the viewers choose that is available.

The Progress that we has made is creating and involved anyone with in the group, and linking ideas within the short film, also linked in thriller and horror genre.

- Knowing what opinion is going to happened.
- Knowing what genre is working with.
- Knowing what type of project is working with interactive video (short film)

Putting towards is video and Interactivity is mostly within the film up to now.
