Pitch Presentation

I had to complete a pitch presentation to present my idea to my tutor for my final major project. In this presentation, I pitched my ideas by showing some of my inspirations and by playing one of the fight scenes that inspired me the most. I spoke to my tutor, explaining the reasoning behind my ideas and how I wanted to present this fight scene to my target audience of 16-25 year olds.
For my final major project I planned to create a fight scene for a film idea I created. It is the final Fight Scene in the Film and Raven is an assassin who kills Luna’s sister in a job. Luna seeks revenge, kidnapping Raven’s brother, Logan, and trying to kill him. Raven runs in just in time to save him before Luna unfolds why she wants to kill Logan to him. Raven wants to protect Logan, leading them to fight. It doesn’t reveal who wins but implies it at the end, leaving it to interpretation- Who they feel was right in this situation and who was wrong.
I think I presented my ideas well to my tutor, myself being able to explain my reasonings and the ideas I had. I was also able to answer all of the questions I was asked by my tutor, showing that I knew what my idea was about and could present it properly with good explanation. The video I shown in the presentation was the last battle between Obito and Kakashi from Naruto. I explained why I liked this fight scene and what elements I wished to use that worked similarly to those in this fight scene. I explain that it is animation which makes the camera movement much easier as there is no physical camera.
The first reason I was inspired by this fight scene is that they talk beforehand, giving backstory and allowing you to understand why they are fighting and what relationship they used to have. I wanted this to be evident in my own, making the act of revenge evident from a scene similar to this one. Another reason that this inspired me was the fact that it had moments where they both got knocked over or hit. This makes the fight feel more even in their fighting skills although one will end up with the upper hand; Kakashi. This is how I wanted it to feel in my fight scene, Luna having the upper hand for the beginning and Raven gaining the advantage near the end of the fight. Another part I took inspiration from was the fact that they start with fist fight and move onto weapons, showing how much the fight escalates and how serious the fight is overall. This was again something I wanted in my own fight scene and watching this allowed me to see a way of doing this. The camera work was also something else that inspired me, such as the close up of the eyes before the fight scene to show emotion.
