Groups
For the preliminary task, I worked with Jack Bowyer and Harry Corden
who worked well and we made a sufficient product. However, I felt I would
achieve more working alone as I could then do my editing independently, which I
feel is my forte, and not hold anyone back in the process. This was quite a
selfish decision, but I feel as though I need to have something to show for
myself as this is my hopeful career path.
Then I decided to work with Brendan Hargreaves as he had some
experience, similar goals to me but also had a DSLR like mine, which could be
useful. The planning went well and we had our piece set up. The shoot didn’t go
well and he preferred to keep the piece close to the planning although as I
have worked wholly independently in the past, I believe in a more improvised
shoot in order to create a more natural feel to a film; as you don’t know what
the set is going to hold until you’re there.
We decided to part ways and I was again working independently using the
planning of the piece with Brendan. This worked well as I was able to shoot
more freely rather than strictly sticking with the shooting script.
Preliminary vs Main
Blog size - this was a much larger project and thus required more work using different mediums to present ideas like Prezi and Slideshare.
Planning size - for the main I needed about 20 posts dedicated to various areas of the planning process which was much more challenging.
Location - as the prelim worked as a practice, we used whatever room we could find as the location whereas for the main I found I had to get permission to use the pub and arrange people to be there at the time.
Overall Learning
- 'the worst ship that set sail was partnership' - but it will be neccessary in future
- I learnt how to use blogger, prezi, slideshare.
- Planning heavily weeks before is one method and another is improvisation but dwelling in the middle is a bad idea
- Auditions would be a good idea
