The editing process has actually been really fun to do on the group prokect, i have found some neat things to do and am quite proud of myself. our cut away shots have made it quite easy to cover up any problems that occurred on the day of filming. Donnie has been helping the group by doing some drawings for us to cover over the fact that the bad contributor was not willing to talk to us on camera. But all is well, we have some awesome archive footage so things are going smoothly. The individual project is finally all filmed and is in the process of being edited, but as we have a little bit longer before we have to hand that in i will be consentration mainly on the group project until that is finally finished, which should be by Friday. My portfolio for Susan is nearly complete, I did another three or so pages on my script and all is going well. I have used the script of Doctor Who as a base plate of what to keep in and what to keep out in terms of descriptive content. As always i will keep you all updated on my goings on.

After the fimling

So for the past two days Jess, Nathan and myself have been in Wales filming our contributor and doing some vox pops. On the whole it has gone very well. Our contributor was fantastic and the vox pops were very smooth. Nathan was the camera man, I was in charge of sound and Jess was in charge of the questions, although we all pitched in as and when we could. We are now putting it onto the computer, logging and batch capturing it all so we can go ahead with the editing process. Although the batch capturing process does take a while, Jess and are muscling through it as i type. The individual project is also going well, all of the gym equipment is now in the SU so i can now finish my filming on the Monday and start editing that day. Susan's module is the one that i have done the most work so far, i have already set up my portfolio which includes my treatment, character synopsis, my practice script and my final script. My script is not yet complete but it will be by then end of the weekend i presume. Lets hope all goes well over the next couple of days

Right so iv been chilling at home for just under a week now and im still ill, so not happy about that. But in terms of the work front i think everything is going well. My individual project is coming along nicely, things will be picked back up when i get back from tour, as does the group project. Im reli stoked about the group project. Im looking forward to going to wales and doing some feeling. so stay poste and after tour let the postings begin

Right so the team and I met in the Velo lounge to discuss who was going to do what role in the project. Everyone was adamant about our roles. SO it was lucky that no one wanted to do the same role. I wanted to be editor, Jess wanted to be project manager, Nathan cameraman and Laura wanted to be runner / secreatary / whatever else we could think of.

We all set ourselves specific things that we had to practice before the next meeting the following week. I had to watch short documentaries and comment on their style and how sharp the edits were. Nathan had to rent out a Z1 and shoot some footage so he could get used to working with it. As it happened he had already booked a Z1 demo for that week so that worked out well. Jess was going to research as was Laura. but Laura also said that she would strat getting the call sheets set up and recce sheets. Will keep you updated
