This is my weekly progress and plan
Week 1
We began the our first project lesson of the week by introducing us to our new project "Component 3" which is about creating a music video production package, including album, music video, and social media page. We began as researching on music industries, or music video production companies. In class we were told to answer specific questions displayed in the front of the class to better get a grasp at the music industry we would eventually choose. We also decided to finally finalize our group members, but haven't picked a specific song or genre that will heavily inspire our music video in our
Week 2
Our team finally landed on a genre that we all agreed on that genre being RnB. We researched and looked at various music videos and are going to go deeper into it in our free time. I think we had a slightly harder time trying to understand conventions from the music video/song since the RnB genre is a little difficult to understand
Week 3
WE continued our research in class to find the song genre for our music video, and ended up with R&B Indie and Indie, in the future we'll lean into one of these genres. Some unfinished work that needs to get done are the genre research & Industry research.
Week 4
Our team had started our statement of intent, and thankfully finished it on the same day. However, we might feel unsatisfied about it and may update it in the future.
Week 5
Our team began filling out our mood board, and ended up completing 2 pages of our mood board. The rest of the time was used to plan and create some parts of the storyboard. Thankfully our teacher gave us a nice template to use so we wouldn't have to take up a big portion of our time making the boxes for the storyboard.
Week 6
For the entire week, we worked on our project and focused on our location & risk assessment, as well as our filming schedule. Our deadline for pre-production is next week and are going to work on it during our day offs so that we're able to submit everything before the deadline. So far my checklist is somewhat half done. So, I think I'm able to complete everything before the deadline at my own pace
Week 7
We began the week with our last project lesson for the semester, and used the next day to practice for our semestral exams by reviewing our past topics such as media consolidation, as well as having a surprise test practice for our semesteral exam. Afterwards, we reviewed our own work and came up with improvements that we may be able to do in the upcoming actual semestral exam.
Here's a checklist that I followed to keep track of my work
Self Reflection:
My weekly progress and plan again didn't really help me in keeping track of my progress since I barely look at it unless I'm updating it. However, the checklist that my teacher gave me was very useful to me, since I could easily update my work and knew exactly what I was missing. This really helped me keep track of my progress so that I was organised, I think that I used it really well.
Semester 2
Week 1
For our first week, our teacher gave us a popular song to perform to, as our practice for our music video project. Our teacher suggested to experiment with multicam editing, where 2 camers are used for the same scene, however most of the class weren't able to use multicam editing so we decided to go deeper into it for the next week
Week 2
For the beginning of the week we focused on multicam editing where we use multiple cameras at different angles recording the same scene, then put together in editing. We also learned how to edit these footage to splice it together properly
Week 3
On this week we completed our recording for or music video where we had troubles in going to our locations and troubles with our times. We solved this by improvising and quickly thought of an alternative scene that would get the same atmosphere and feeling
Week 4
This week we mostly had a holiday so we hadn't done much work. However, at the end of the week, we continued on our blogposts and gained feedback from our teacher. Our teacher suggested that our performance scenes can be improved by having better lighting and acting performances.
Week 6
We started the week with our teacher explainint to us about the cirical self-reflection and gave us a quick brief. Our teacher also helped guide us on creating the lan for our final critical self reflection, unfoprtunately, this was done online due to the bad weather resulting in the school being closed.
Week 7
We continued in making edits to our final music video. Afterwards our teacher gave us feedback on our music video and fgave us recommendations on what to do & what to remove. We also had our exams this week.
Week 8
This week we primarily focused on our mock exams, having most of our periods be used up as a form of review study for the upcoming mock text the next day. The rest of the periods was used to continue our project, where I researched and started making my first drafts of the digipak.
Week 9
This week, we only had one day of our lesson which was used to complete a mock test, since the rest of the days were used for school camping agenda.
Week 10
This is the week where everything was due, this week we completed everything needed in our project before the due date on Wednesday.
Self Reflection:
I found the weekly progress and plan useless for me, as I feel it fails to keep track of my work and ends up being more of a hassle or a chore to do after class has finished. Next time, I think I might put less effort into my weekly progress and plan, as I feel that it doesn't help me manage my time and my tasks well.
