Reflecting On Skills
What skills have you used/strengthened/developed during this project? What are you better at? What have you learned how to do?
-Technical skills
During the unit i have developed my technical skills by being able to now use editing software without help. Previous to this i had never used any type of editing software so if i had to do another project like this i think i would be ok to edit myself. I also gained knowledge of how to use a camera correctly, again i had never used one before and now i feel confident when using one.
-Client skills
My client skills have improved a lot from the first meeting we had. I feel more confident now when in the meetings and feel i can speak freely now without feeling embarressed therefore i feel i can interact with the client much better than before.
-People skills, organisation and project management skills
As i undertook the role of production manager i had to negociate things such as cast, locations, crew and budget. I was also a link between the producer, director and clientel. As i had a big role this definitely improved my skills as i had to interact with a lot of different people. I also think my organisation has improved as i had to organise several things for shoot days and crew.

First day of filming-
We have booked the drama studio for lunchtime and found two students to act as the band members. I brought in my guitar to use as a prop and we checked that the drums and microphone where available to use. We also learnt how to use the lighting system and work the music box. We are hopeing to film the whole song through 3 times to experiment with different shot types and angles, also so that we have enough succesful footage to edit and complete the video. We are going to include extreme close ups of the instruments and use a tripod so the camera is still.
Recording and preparation- Nisha and Camilla
