production log 7

What have you contributed this week?

This week we completed our production for the music video. The deadline was for monday and we had managed our time wisely in the previous week so we was able to all put in a big effort on monday to finish it to a high quality standard. I really wanted to have a big contribution this week and make a big effort as i wasnt there the last week to edit, I feel that the ideas we all put together really made the video special.

How does this fit in with the production schedule/ job roles/ overall ideas of the project?

Our production schedule shows that monday was the final edit deadline, we was able to finish the edit on time and keep to the schedule. In terms of the projects outcome, we really was able to get the right style and show the examiners our skills in the post production stage to get across the style we wanted to portray.

Were there any problems?

There was no problems this week, we worked really well as a team to edit the music video and get it done on time. Whilst we did have a couple of minor problems with the software that we used to edit the video, we couple quickly overcome them through our creative discussions on the direction of the project.

What are your plans for the following week? 

There are no plans for the following week, the production is finished and as a team we felt that we put maximum effort in to it and feel that our finished video really shows it. We was all really excited and happy about how the finished project came out. Of course there are things that we wanted to change, but as a whole we was pleased with the time and effort we put in to this production.

What have you contributed this week?

For me, this week i didnt contribute as much as i would have liked. I fell ill all week and wasnt able to help edit in class with the others in the group, which was not ideal. I was able to provide some help over the phone, but it was very little. Fortunately both the other members knew what they was doing and bale to carry on editing without me.

How does this fit in with the production schedule/ job roles/ overall ideas of the project?

In terms of the schedule we are slightly behind, but we are confident that by the end of Monday we will be able to complete the final edit. The project is going well and the video looks really good at the moment, with a little more work it should be complete and to a very high standard.

were there any problems?

There were not too many problems this week, we was able to use classroom time to edit and during the weekend we was able to re-shoot some things although not in the best conditions.

how did you overcome them?

In terms of overcoming the problems on the weekend whilst re-shooting, whilst they was not ideal we did feel that our skills with the camera, meant that we could film in a slightly different way, yet still make it look in keeping with everything else. Thus doing a good job and completing everything, ready to edit this final bit.                                                                                                                                       

what are your plans for the following week?

The plans for the following week are to finish the editing of our project, and produce a finished piece of work. I feel that we are certainly capable and able to do this, which would then after allow us to move on to the evaluation of the music video.

What Have You Contributed This Week?

This week collectively we was all editing the music video. As in the previous week we knew the style that we wanted to create, we could now move forward and edit everything a lot quicker. My job this week was to really make a big contribution to the edit of the music video. As it was my original idea and i have had the idea of how i wanted the aesthetics to look like.

How does this fit in with your production schedule/ job roles/ overall ideas of the project?

In terms of our production schedule we are a little behind. We are editing to a good pace and standard, which we are pleased with. However we know that we will need to go and re-shoot some things and we still have some large gaps to edit. But we are confident that everything will be done on time and we will meet the deadlines with a high quality piece of work.

Were there any problems?

This week we didnt have any problems, we used our time wisely and have sorted out the dates to re-shoot some scenes already. Then we used all the class time available to edit as much as possible. We feel that we have a good schedule and although we have had problems in the past, we have worked well to overcome them and get back on top of everything after a couple dilemmas.

What are your plans for the following week?

As this week we used all of the class room time to edit the video, we wanted to finish this week by re-shooting what we needed. We are then going to continuously edit for the next week and meet the deadline of Monday 14th. Next week will be about polishing the video up and making it look professional with some colour correction and checking that the cuts are clean.
