I had 3 meetingswithmyclientincludingmyfinal one where there wasnoneedforchanges.My
meetingswere veryhelpful andleadme toaddingmore in-depthdetail whenneededforexample
puttingall namesincapitalsandputtinglittle importantdetails in(actual name of filmand
producer). Ialsohad to put the timingsinwhenmyactressisdancingso we have a precise time
capsule of howlongthe dance scene is goingto take.Thiswill informthe readerabouthow longthe

I do feel like Ihave metthe needsandexpectationsof myclientandbrief asI have produceda plan
and scriptfor a short filmbetween5and15 minutes longthatappealstomytarget audience.My
target audience isteenstoyoungadultswhoare aboutto give upon somethingtheirpassionate
aboutand I feel myfilmmighttherefore encouragethemtocontinue until the unexpectedhappens.
I thinkI done thisbynot makingitto childishandmakingitshortenoughforan individual towatch
inthe 5 minuetstheyhave spare duringtheirbusydays. Ihave alsofollowed the directionsof the
clientbynot makinga musicvideo, time-lapse travel,comedysketches…
