So **HOW DOES OUR VIDEO COMES OUT**?

We have checked some popular videos on Youtube, to see how come they are popular on the Internet. We have found out that, there are a big variety of videos, in different genres, that can attract people:

media type="youtube" key="_10hp6Fk0X8?version=3" height="349" width="425" It is a commercial about the ceiling maintenance, a couple of lizards fell down from the gap of the ceiling to the chessboard, which the family later all accused the master of the family of not maintaining the ceiling well. In Thailand, people always being touched by this kind of commercials because they could link the advert to themselves, and can feel the sadness of the lizards.

media type="youtube" key="bZ2EKswyTao?version=3" height="349" width="425" It is a commercial which stunned a lot of people, since it is captured in a very realistic way, and audience feel scared by the picture they see and the music they hear. They feel sad and scared and will protect their lives by bucking up their belts when traveling on cars.

media type="youtube" key="GX-QhoihLeI?version=3" height="349" width="425" It is a commercial of Nike which is banned, but there are quite a big view counts recorded on Youtube. This is a relatively horrible to some of the audience, but a funny way to show that Nike shoes are better than the others, which make the killer could not catch up the lady and gasping.

media type="youtube" key="7p_0Mz7_2OA?version=3" height="349" width="425" It is a Thai bank commercial bank, which there is a man turned into a ghost and keep following the young man, because the young man owes him money. At last, there is a bank agent appears and introduce the instant loan service by using mobile phones. This is a good way that promoting a bank service by using a relatively scary but funny way, and this is the way our group would like to use for our finalized video.

Video linked to our idea:

media type="youtube" key="jhwstc8uGXs?version=3" height="349" width="425"

About our video, we will take the idea from "Saw" movie series, where 5 fainted people were being imprisoned in a secret chamber. Suddenly they were awake and realized that they have no idea where were they and there was a TV in front of them, which the Toy Puppet Jigsaw was on the television later. He asked the 5 people to reserve a table for him, which the fastest one could be the survivor of this "game".

The original plan for the video was that, there would be people asking for help from the mobile phone, like calling the police or friends to save them, but the plan is more realistic that, some people may feel reluctant to "play the game", and some experienced the problem of having a phone without battery and signal, just like what we may face in real life.

The last 2 survivors which have their smart phones with them compete with each other. This could also brings out the fact that using MyTable is much more faster because there could be many restaurants search on the Internet. Using MyTable is much faster to find and reserve a table with its user-friendly system. That is the reason that the survivor could leave.

 * PROBLEMS FACED:**

The main problem our group faced was about time. As our group members consist of students from both Hotel Management class & Hotel and Events class, it is always hard for us to find an appropriate time to have a meeting. Also due to the different schedule, some members went to other countries for a short break when there were breaks up to 5-6 days. This was the situations that we had to keep delaying our schedule of work. We should have had good planning on our working schedule and should be stick with it before everything has finished.
