Today in lesson, we got set the creative task of drawing out our different frames which we would like to be present when we create our OTS. They were done of post-it notes so we could move them around and this would also help us to decide the perfect combination for our shots to go in. Drawing people isnt my strong point, but i tried my best and the different combinations i come up with, will be soon put onto this blog.
The first scene of my OTS starts with a poker game, i found it okay to invent the different reactions of the characters but i didnt find out what the winner shouts or does when they do win their victory of all th chips and money. Do they shout "POKE!" or do they just grab the money and run? I really do need to look this up throughly...however, while in the class, i looked on vimeo.com and discovered this video that someone had done. At first glace you assume that the poker winner wins money, but actually the winner doesnt. He wins BUISCUITS. And then at the end there is a cheezy nible of a Rich Tea buiscuit by the winner. Check this video out, i was quite amused for the minute or two it ran for ->

By now i hoped that you have watched the video and wasnt as gullable as me to believe that they were actually playing with chips there and to not notice that they are actually playing with buiscuits until a close-up of them is in frame later in the video. However i did straight away discover that all of the winners have to lay down a card to discover the winner..and then the prize is claimed. I will research into this more to make sure i am getting the right idea. It actually has to look like a really poker game and not as if some random girl has tried to create one with some guessed rules because she couldnt bothered to reasearch it. *Cough cough*
made me laugh out loud the idea of shouting poke and running - i have a poker set at school that we can use next week - check out my latest post about the current and next lot of work
