Introduction
Explain what task you did for the AS production and how this one differs from it.(e.g. thriller/kids Tv,)

Research

(Talk about learning more techniques for final Cut,analysing some real music vids and looking at student examples,talk from promo director, music range of choices, etc) Which band/artist did your group choose and why ? (give some positive reasons here) How did you ‘pitch’ for them ? (summarise briefly) Where did you get your ideas from ? cite actual examples as shown on your blog !

Planning/Time Management
What tasks had to be done in the research and planning phase? How were these handled and what could have been done to improve them ? (talk about storyboarding, animatic, organising places, props, equipment, people) How did the group come to decisions about approaches to the tasks to be completed? (what range of options did you consider and why did you opt for the choices you made?) What roles did the various people in the group take on ? Concentrate particularly on your role in the various activities. Talk about any test footage you shot. What did you learn from doing these tests and from the animatic ?

Filming/Editing
Write about the shoot. What went well/badly ? what could you have done differently ? Consider your early editing and how you reached the rough cut stage. Outline this process and discuss decision-making you undertook. What does the group feel about the rough cut ? What feedback have you had from director/ other students etc ? what still needs to be done ?
