Task 2c

i) Identify Opportunities for Self-Development

In this team, I will be taking the role of assistant director. I have the opportunity to self develop my skills as an individual. I have to document the progress being made through the production schedule, inspecting the cast and the crew, using call sheets, health and safety on set, and ensuring the conditions are met in order to begin filming. I have to maintain being organised and maintain contact with the director.

ii) New skills

This gives me the opportunity to learn new skills such as learning to do stop-motion animation and rotoscoping since I have never learned these techniques before so I have learned these techniques through video tutorials on YouTube. During my experience with negotiating with the client we had to communicate with the client in order to understand how creative we can be whilst keeping to the client's demands.

iii) Multi-skilling

This gives me the opportunity to demonstrate multi-skilling. Which means that the role I am taking as an individual requires a variety of skills such as being organised which is essential. Communication is another one of the skills that is used mostly seeing as to how you need to manage the cast and keep in constant contact with the director. 

iv) Contribution to project brief

My contribution to the project brief is that I am the assistant director for the production of these idents and I will make sure that the conditions to film will be met and call sheets will be prepared in time with the schedule.

Storyboards

Expected duration will be 15-20 seconds.

Production Diary

Production Diary 25th April 2017

We pitched our chosen theme for the suite of idents for the Christ The King YouTube channel. We covered the theme which was community and we discussed what is going to be within each ident and it was simple because we revised our ideas in the previous team meeting so that the four idents were similar to the theme we have chosen. We also handed the client the production plan which included the logo designs, budget, production schedule, potential problems and solutions. We had to pitch in under 5 mins so there was a considerable amount of pressure on our part but we covered everything else and our ideas were consistent.

Production Diary 26th April 2017

The next day after we pitched our ideas to the client, we received feedback from our client. We didn't know what to improve on because  there wasn't enough time for us to receive ours so we will be waiting for when he gives us feedback. In the meantime we are working on the pre-production for our  suite of idents due for the 3rd April.
