Production Log: Week 1

What have you contributed this week?

Through the first week of pre-production, the class had to create a pitch throughout the Christmas holidays to present to the class, this then lead to audience feedback which is very helpful as it will become beneficial in the future. My pitch went very well as it was very clear on what i wanted to do and how i wanted to do it. The feedback was challenging in the sense that I had to think on the spot to answer the questions well to clarify what the audience member may have been confused on. After the pitches were all done we were all then told to choose a partner and the music video idea we liked the most. The person I have chosen to work with is Prinul this is for many reasons which have been explained in the previous posted Group Rationale. After pairing up we then had to decide on what idea we wanted to choose. We then came to a joint decision of my idea as we thought it had the right creativity and flair to gain interest to our chosen audience. We both had put in our own input to develop my idea to make it the best it could be. We were given a A3 sheet which had helped us break the song down in verse and chorus this will definitely be beneficial in the future as it secures our ideas on how we both want the video to look like. 

The A3 sheet we had filled out to break down the plan of our video. 

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

We have not started to film our music video yet which means we are not entirely sure of how the production schedule will look like. However we are clear and certain on the ideas that we want in our music video. Job roles have not been allocated yet as we are still going through careful detail on everything in our music video. For the overall ideas of the project we are both certain of who and where the locations of the video will be. 

Were there any problems?

There have no problems for the first week. We are happy to be working together as we have known each other for a long time thus making us gel and work hard and well together. We have discussed our ideas well and are certain that we are on the same page.

How did you/will you overcome them?

As mentioned before there have been no problems to overcome. We are both hard working individuals and want the best for each other to create a really good music video. By wanting the best for each other we are both sure to meet deadlines and work together as a team. 

What are the plans for the following week?

The following week will continue with pre planning and on our shooting script. I have created a shooting script on two previous projects through media this year and have found that if i didn't have it i would be totally clueless when it comes to shooting my music video. A shooting script is the make or break of the music video as it is the foundation of the creation of our music video. The shooting script tells us the amount of shots we are going to use, type of camera shots/angles and special effects. Everything on the shooting script will be full of precise detail so when it comes to creating footage we wont be lost on what we need to do.
