Production Schedule

Production log 1

What have you contributed this week?

During the past week I have been in charge of asking people if they would like to be in the video and making sure they sign the sheet needed, I completed this on my own as the group and I decided that I would be in charge of asking people to sign the consent form.  I also helped with filling out the sheet that says our story as it is mainly my idea I don't want to just have my own ideas so we all agreed on adding in our own ideas.  

How does this fit in with the production schedule/ job roles/ overall ideas of the project? (Refer to already posted work)

The production schedule shows use what needs to be done and for when, completing what we did (the plan and the waiver for cast) means that we can go ahead and film on time and we won’t need to keep getting peoples permission whilst filming.  Completing the plan means that we can all see what our video will roughly look like and it informs other people of what they may need to be acting in.  

Were there any problems? How did you/ will you overcome them?

The only problem we had that couldn't be helped was one of our team members was ill but we met up with them the next day and confirmed what we had done while they were away and they were ok with what we decided and we changed a few things but overall everything was fine.  

What are your plans for the following week?

For the following week we will finish the plan for our filming days and the filming schedule.  Finishing these will be more helpful than anything else as we need to make sure we know when we are filming and what scenes are being filmed on what days.

Group rationale

Pitch Reflection

Are there any areas of the presentation you would like to give anymore detail on?
Although i explained what i would like my video to look like I feel like i didn't explain it enough.  In my video i would have some of the lyrics shown in the video but most of it i would like to look at the lyrics and make my own judgment on them.  I would cut to beat as this would keep the audience's focus and make it look more professional.  Some of the locations i will use i need permission to film there but places like a park and a house i wouldn't need permission as a park is a public lace however if a member of the public comes into shot whilst filming i will have to ask if they don't mind or i can just re-film, and using a house i will only need one or two rooms which shouldn't be a problem as people wont always be in them rooms or i could ask them to leave.  In the feedback i was given advice on what i could use the green screen for and i liked the sound of having it play things that relate to to the main actors in the relationship as it makes a bit more interesting rather than just having the audience watch the band perform who don't have much relevance to the video.  

What did your audience identify as your strengths of your music video idea? 
When i was given feedback there were a lot of question due to the fact that i wasn't very good at explaining what i meant.  but i wasn't asked about the things i was going to have in my video as in why i chose what i did, i also wasn't asked why i chose the locations and song.  I think i wasn't asked about these because i explained why i was going to use them, for the song i said i liked the lyrics as i could use them to help make the video and the locations as i said what i was going to use them for and why i chose them.  

What did your audience identify as areas for improvement?
Someone asked me why I was going to use an Asian as my main actor when my target audience said white, i was then told that i would suit the roll better and i should play it when it comes to filming, I was also asked if i would consider using the band for the house party rather than using them as two separate things.  

What changes will you make to your music video concept based on the feedback you received?
When i come to filming i will change several things to make it more interesting to my audience.  I found the feedback very useful as the people who asked questions would be people who would watch my video.  I will change the main actress as people may not watch as they wouldn't relate to the video, i will use the band for the house party and finally i will use the green screen to show things that have something to do with the couple in the video.  I will make these changes so more people would want to watch the video and to hopefully make my video look more professional suiting the 99dollarmusicvideos.
