Review: Batman Arkham City

Just finished typing my review for Batman Arkham City and going over my battle plan for filming this Saturday.

Battle Plan for Saturdays review of the show

Needed before Saturday:
*Video Camera equipment (see previous blogs), picking it up from University in a few hours.
*Batmobile (I have a collection actually underneath the house. I'll be making a set for the show, so it would be nice to include something Bat related in the background for the Arkham City Review).
* The following consoles - Black Nintendo 64 or a Super Nintendo Entertainment System Console, Sony Playstation 1 Console and a Xbox 360 Console for the background.
* Some half decent chairs.
*Food for my crew (I am working on Friday so I will bring home a few pizzas if possible).
* Find a stage hand aka somebody that can just press Play on the camera, Clapperboard and maybe take a few photos. I'll handle all the camera/lighting set up as I know how to  from Music Video Production.
* Footage of the Video Games we are reviewing for the opening show (Batman Arkham City, Borderlands and Alice in Wonderland: Madness Returns).
*Written and finalized reviews for everything above. The reviews will then be uploaded to power point so that I can hook up a monitor to a laptop and Alex and myself can read off them. This will save time and we won't have to memorize giant junks of text. Alex scored a ban 6 in HSC drama (ban 5 for myself) so we both have no problem preforming.
*Floor design
*Shot list (list of shots we have to do. I'm looking at basing the review show off the ABC show 'At the Movies'. It has a set list of shots and is filmed in a multicamera studio. We can do this ).

People on set:
Jack - Reviewer
Alex - Reviewer
Stage Hand ?

I'll post a update on how my progress with this and my website progress is going later tonight.
