Pre-Production Production
1. What went We worked very well as a team
well? we allocated each other roles
and decided easily and fairly
2. What could
you improve on? Due to some absences because
of illness our attendance wasn’t
entirely perfect but still good.
However, because the filming
was on a tight deadline of a few
days, starting late and working
without all the team did cause
delays to filming.
3. What
problems did you The team was small to divide all

could get a chance to film or
direct that wanted to.
We did struggle to plan exactly
what action would be in each
shot but completing the
storyboard helped as discuss this
as a group.
Postproduction
We worked very well as a team we
allocated each other roles and decided
easily and fairly. We communicated
well with each other through our
teams’ chat and face to face overall
the team attendance was good
Audio was not as good as I’d hoped.
Camera shots were sometimes shaky
as we weren’t able to access a tripod.
Whilst filming in the college we had to
work around the busy periods because
we needed empty college spaces so
had to avoid break times etc. The lack
of budget and time constraints meant
we had limited props including
furniture.
The team was small so an extra actor
was required We were able to use a
colleague and arranged for them to
come to the college as a visitor.
Some equipment wasn’t available for
us. Some time was spent waiting for
Footage was imported correctly ad
organized in an efficient way. My
edit does showcase my chosen fear
of dying young. The quick, frantic
succession of clips builds tension
against the juxtaposition of the
calm Aerosmith soundtrack.
A shot list helped make the editing
easier because I knew what clips to
expect.
More filming time as it was rather
rushed. This would have meant I
would have more choice in my
editing.
We didn’t have enough clips of the
horror aspect. We located some
artwork from another classroom
and used that.

Communication and negotiating skills

team members had ideas heard.
Filming skills – used different camera
techniques as location was not always
ideal and sometimes members of the
public were in the way.
Some sounds were not possible to

downloaded MP3 files of these.
Time management – had to keep a Sometimes it took a while to
