Weekly Production Log 6

This week in week 6 everything went fine because we got most of our music video edited properly by cutting to the beat. As a group we were pleased by that. We were also quite pleased that we managed to transfer most of our footage

On Monday we were focusing on two things. Firstly it was to do with transferring some footage for the music video which were the re shot scenes and secondly we continued to edit our music video whilst transferring videos.

On Tuesday as a group we decided to slot in some of the footage that we did not put in our music video, this is because we wanted our video to look more interesting. On that day we also decided to slot in some of our lips syncing footage and some of the other footage for the ending for our music video.

On Wednesday we carried on editing as a group. As a group we also decided to plan out what we needed to do this weekend because last weekend not everything went to plan.

On Friday our main problem began. As a group we thought that our draft for our music video was good and decided to show it to our mentor. Our mentor though it was disappointing. Our deadline was coming this Monday and as a group were quite disappointed.

Next week on Monday we will finish our editing and make that it is a good as possible

weekly production log 5

During this week in week 5 we carried on doing our post production work which has been quite successful as we continued to edit our music video and we have now the draft for our music video.

On Monday we were only focusing on cutting to the beat for our video. We did this by listening to the music video and placing markers on all of the beats. The reason why we did this is because it made it a little easier to cut to the beat.

The next day went fine as everyone in my group was ready to edit the music video. We all decided to have the shooting script in front of us to help us edit our music video and we all decided to put the short scenes together so it would make it easier to edit.

In our next lesson which was on Wednesday, we were able to begin the second half of our music video because we finished the first half of our music video. On Friday we finished the draft for our music video. On sunday we re-shot some of our scenes for the lip syncing at hornchurch.

Our main problem was that it took a long time to find all of the beats in the song when we listened to it. Also the beginning and the ending of our video took a long time because we were trying cut to the beat throughout the music video. Another problem was that some of our footage was not as great as we thought it would be and also one of our actress for our music couldn't this sunday because she had work.

Next week we will be continuing to edit the video and reshoot some other scenes that were messed up.

weekly production log 4

During this week in week 4 we started to do post production of our music video has been quite successful as we begin our editing and we are now at 1 minute through the song.

On Tuesdays lesson we were only able to transfer our footage to the IMac. The reason is because we had a lot of memory to be transferred which  took very long. In our next lesson  which was on Wednesday we were able to begin the editing process, we went through each shot to see what we needed and what we did not need as much

The next day went fine as I went in my free period to start editing some of the lip synching with the director. We both decided to do the scenes that would take the longest as we would have to match up the song and cut it to the beat.

Our main problem was that it took a very long time transfer video to the iMac. Also the beginning of our video took long time because we were trying cut to the beat at the start of the music video. Another problem was that some of our footage were not as great as we thought it would be.

Next week we will carry on editing and finish a rough cut of the music video also we will be refilming the scene that were not as  great

weekly production log 3

During this week I was with my group shooting the film in various locations.Whilst we were doing the filming we decided to tell everyone the locations that the director wanted to go to do his shooting for his music video one last so that we knew that everyone was on board and listening that include the cast for our music video.

On Monday we decide to do no filming at all because everyone was very busy. On Tuesday Jannah and I set off to London in the early hours as to get some establishing shots of London where there are no people.
however we did face some problem. This is due to the fact that the sunrise was quite quick and that we did not have much time. This is also because there was a lot of people.

We will over come this problem by planning another day of getting  some establishing shots of London without any people to interfere.


On wednesday we decided to film at Hornchurch country park and no one had any idea where the location was. We eventually found our way there as everyone remembered the bus stop to get there.

On Thursday we went to Jeevan family allotment to film there. On Friday we filmed at Westminster bridge.

The main problem we had on each day was timing. Most days there was at least one person late which put us behind schedule for that one day. For example on Wednesday we were supposed to meet at 9am however one of the actors was still asleep and eventually met us at 10am. 

However it was all sorted out for the next day and all went to plan.

Next week we are going to editing our music video, and if there are any more shots we need we will go on the weekend to film that.

weekly production log 2

During this week I was with my group doing the shooting script. Whilst we were doing the shooting script I decided to give everyone the map for the location that the director wanted to go to do his shooting for his music video since we had to change our location a bit such as regents park. Instead of going to regent park we decided to choose Hornchurch country park because the location was more relevant to our music video. 

I also asked if we could negotiate with the planning work, this because I knew that I could do other pieces of the planning work better and that the planning would get finished quicker. We all manage to finished all the planning work on the Friday to put it on the blog

These are the thing i did.

During this week the group had a bit of problem of location. This is because we were trying to find certain destroyed places again. The group and I decide to change the location for Hainault forest as we thought it was it a good choice to Hornchurch country park as we all found out it existed.

We finally decided to come to conclusion of this problem by taking screen shoot maps of location o Hornchurch country Park was we did not know where it was.

During this week the whole group face a little bit of problem which made it challenging. this is because everyone had work to do during next week and we needed to finish filming by then. we over came this problem by we all scheduled a time everyday to do filming when we were all free by so we could get this done.

next week i will be doing the filming.
