As we had all completed the tasks we had been assigned, we were now in a position where we could drag and drop our work into a presentation. The only thing that we had to consider in more detail were the finances. Joe, Emma and myself (Ciara was unable to attend our meeting, but still contributed over messages) sat down and researched further into the costs we would need to get started. We were already aware of how much the rent for the studio was going to cost as well as things like software licences as we had made note of these previously, but things like business insurance and optional equipment we quickly looked up. We even went on GoCompare to try and get a more accurate business insurance quote, but at the end of the form it said they would be in contact with us at a later time regarding a quote which wasn't particularly helpful at the time. In the end we just took an average number as an estimate from our Google searches.

I put all of our costs into a spreadsheet so we could clearly see the amounts we would need to be earning/what it is was we would be spending, and used Mike's 'Cost of Living' spreadsheet as a guide for working out tax, as I personally had no idea how to do this or what we would get taxed on, and because of this I included two total expenses figures, one with tax and one without.

As Joe was working on the website and showreel, I took charge of making the initial slides for our presentation. I made sure to keep the style consistent throughout the slides and with our logo and brand so it would look more professional.
