Planning: Pitch Feedback (task 39)

Overall, we received positive feedback from the other 4 groups.
What we are going to consider:
- Adding special effects to our title sequence, to manipulate the titles
-Decide whether or not we want to challenge or stick to conventions of thriller movies (reveal what The Nerd
is conducting behind the laptop screen, or not?)
- We're going to consider whether we should film some establishing shots of the college, like many High School Dramas, such as The Breakfast Club, do.
