Finessing the Proposal (Editing for consistency)

• Logline - 4 pieces of information that aren't actually in the treatment are in the logline which causes inconsistency. My on the spot idea "Forever alone, Pavo risks it all on a fancy first date. Will it be smooth sailing or will he struggle to stay afloat." 
• Synopsis - similar to logline, some bits of information not relevant to a synopsis.
• Target Audience - G rating scares off teens and the general expectation is a female swayed romance story.
• Add visuals into the proposal document from the start, need to keep the reader engaged and convey the concept even if someone only skims it.
• Character Bio pages - several different style images are included when it should be a finished piece of concept art of the character.
• Style frames - finished movie frame that show lighting, style.
• Only offer elements that you are willing to work on for the final product.
• Mood boards are fine in proposals as long as the accompanying concept art is complete, concise and consistent style. Be careful with mood board styling, use film aspect for the images, have it in concept order so the reader can follow the story. 

The biggest thing still that I think is the elephant in the room is Communication. Tutor feedback:

• Communication is not what it should be, teams did not have clear outcomes to work on, ppl all just worked on what they wanted to which doesn't help the consistency and also creates a lot of assets that wont be used and the time could have been used on something more productive. Clear instructions/directives and constant feedback cycles need to be in place to make sure things are progressing correctly.

I 100% agree with this observation. Its been quite hard to find something to focus on so far but I'm hoping that moving forward we will be able to set up a clear line of communication with direct goals, so that we all know what to work on without unnecessary overlap and wasted man hours. I'm not sure if it is just inexperience in working on a cohesive group project or misunderstanding of what is required of each person and their role. 

I have been put in charge of making the 3D restaurant bathroom off Thomas' 2D concept art for the proposal due at 5 today.
