As a group we struggled with the usual challenges of group work – time management, communication, initial awkwardness – but once we got past that we worked well together and managed to narrow down the worlds to our five favourites.

Our Favourites!

• Halloween/Monster Bar
• Heaven Admissions/Angels play Tinder
• Apocalypse Setting
• Film Noir Parody
• Soap Opera Parody

From there we decided on the Halloween/Monster Bar for our final idea. Then we narrowed down a story idea.
