Week 7 Blog

This weekly journal entry discusses the student's seventh week of filming for their FMP project. They learned that they need to use their time more constructively when opportunities arise to catch up on written work. The only issues encountered were minor editing errors in the script. The student ensured their actors were available for recording by directly communicating with them and confirming transportation logistics. They fell behind on their weekly blogs and preproduction work and need to complete this outside of lessons.

Week Seven – Filming

PLANNING

What did you learn from your planning This week was a week where we were able to film but I chose
this week? to film in the second week so i am able to film in the studio.
During the first filming week I was able to help others with their
filming and I think I wasted a lot of time doing this because I
could have been catching up with written work instead of
spending unused time not doing anything important I learned
that when I get the chance to catch up on work I should use
that time constructively.

What issues did you encounter and The only issues I had were not using my time to catch up on
how did you overcome them? written work when I had the time and I regret not doing so. The
only other issue I faced was trying to edit the character names
in my script because when I started writing my script I didn’t
have names for my characters, so originally they were called A,
B and C and so I changed wherever I put a letter to a name
but it changed any “a” in a sentence to a name which wasn’t
very helpful

How did you ensure that you are I used some of this week to make sure that all my actors are
prepared for filming? available to record the dialogue in the studio next week. I also
made sure that

How did you ensure that your I didn’t think an equipment list was necessary to create an
equipment lists were completed to a entire list when I only need a recording booth in order to record
high standard? the dialogue for my production. There is evidence of a booking
form which I have filled out in order to book the studio

How have you ensured your actors I have ensured that my all my actors including myself are
and crew will be available? available for recording by asking them in person and making
sure they have transport in order to get to the location of
recording.

How well have you been able to As mentioned previously the only transport that my actors and
organise locations and transport? myself need in order to arrive at the location on time is the
transport we would use to arrive at college because the
recording booth is at college
