Reflection on Thursdays filming

On Thursday we began filming and filmed parts of several of our scenes here are some photographs I took of us working and some of our cast:

Here is part of our cast (mostly in costume) from left to right: Nicole, Andrew, Alisha and Chris

Heres the our group (left to right: Chris, Andrew, Olivia, Daniel)  at the computer looking at our scripts and storyboards and preparing to film.

Here are Andrew and Daniel tying their ties for their costumes.

Here's Daniel threatening Chris in our first scene (not chronologically script wise) while Andrew films

Here's Andrew posing as he gets ready to check through some of the footage we have just filmed.

And that's just a little of what we did on Thursday.

We didn't get as much done as we would've liked but it was a start and now we have a better idea of what were doing were sure our next session will be more efficient.

*All of these phots were taken by me except one hence why I am not in them but regardless I was there directing the whole time.

Reflection 17.1.12

Today I have posted up the storyboard page by page, posted up the new script and helped put together a list of cast, costume and things needed for filming.

Audience Research Reflection

Overall I think our audience research went well, our focus group was focused and alert and interested in our questions and even more so in replying to them, the only place I felt we didn't get a so good reply on was the internet survey's as they were unmanageable and some people relied in a manner that was inappropriate and not useful to us in our research. As well as this I think we could have put our survey's together better as some people didn't understand the layout of our questions properly and so struggled to answer some of them.
I also think we should have pushed more for survey's to be filled in before the lesson as we ended up using two hours we could've used for further work getting survey's filled, also most of those survey's were mostly filled by adults which isn't entirely a help to us.

At the moment we are editing our screenplay, changing somethings and adding some more humour; we are working quite well as a team at the moment though now and again one of us lags behind and we have to pick them up again and get them to rejoin us in working. This is not only their fault but our fault as well I think as sometimes we can get so caught up in what were doing we forget to think about what we have left for everyone else to do. This will be something we will work on.
