Progress report of the project so far



I believe that I have done my very best as director to keep up with the tasks and also to organize the group and to sort out what tasks need doing and when etc. I feel as if each lesson goes by it gets harder to organize jobs for each individual / pair within the group to work on. I am trying my very hardest in order to allocate each person with their individual jobs to work on in each session we are together as a group.

The marketing side of this project is going well, or though I believe I have not had as much input as I personally could of done within the marketing side of things, due to my directing role being my major role within this group I have spent most of my time organizing to-do lists and also jobs to do in each lesson.

As far as planning/ scripting & shooting is going so far I believe it is going well, or though I believe that my personal plans set out for each lesson are not usually stuck too, in other words I usually change my original plans for the lesson or me and my group are faced with different tasks set by our teacher. The script is written out and ready for the rehearsals / shooting which we will organize as a group soon.

As far as the schedule goes we have not had a well structured schedule, but this is down to the fact that we have been given a tight time frame to work within, and also the work load varies from lesson to lesson. My job as director is to organize a schedule and also make sure that every one knows what is happening when, this involves discussion with the group and also communication, and overall the communication within the group greatly occurs within the class room and not outside, and of course this does cause some problems, as allot of the work does happen outside of lesson, and without communication it is quite hard to work on the tasks.

The schedule system of working lesson by lesson (i.e. planning each lesson at the start of it) is working ok so far, but of course is not without its problems, such as people not knowing exactly what needs doing and by what time etc, and also the lack of work to give out to people, because I personally do not know what needs doing, due to the lack of communication between the group outside of lesson.

Overall I believe that the project is going well so far, and the group is well informed about the work that needs doing and by what deadline, and I personally know what I need to do in order to improve this project.

What I need to do:

- Place links to ALL the marketing websites for 'Lines' on my blog (Facebook, myspace, twitter, etc)
- Make sure that the group has decided on a final date for us to film the 1st /2nd episode
- Ensure that ALL information about the chosen characters are on my blog
- Place the t-shirt designs onto my blog
- Make sure that my blog is updated with what I have done in each lesson / group meeting
