Group Meeting 3

Following on from previous group discussions, we decided to concentrate on producing ideas on what we believe is most important to create for this video.

We decided that the video should be short, this is because we do not want the viewers becoming bored of what they are watching. For this reason, we have decided that the video should be to the point and run for no longer than 2 minutes.

From research that we have gathered, many videos based on the 2 stroke engine are covered within a similar time scale.



Within this time, it will also enable the group to explain and get the knowledge across to the viewer in reasonable depth.

The group have also discussed how to enhance the viewers experience. This included:

Use of visual effects - to produce a more appealing element to the video, if the video is dull then this will come across in the viewers attitude towards the video.

Use of speech - Having a video with sound effects would be simple, but then the viewer would find it very hard to follow what is taking place and going away feeling they have gained information. For this the group believe it is important to use audio commentary as well as visual elements to make the experience as understandable as possible.

The group have decided to concentrate on the side of the engine, this is because it will represent in greater detail the information being explained within the audio. It will also limit the chances of mistakes being made with the visual elements of the video.

Another visual element discussed by the group was the use of tags and arrows so that the viewer knows what area of the engine to concentrate on as the audio goes through its cycle.
