Todays lesson (prep for shoot) / 8th meeting

In todays lesson, the main tasks set where in order to prepare for the shooting of the 1st episode for our web-series 'lines'. The first thing which happend today was a brief discussion / meeting with our teacher, who discussed with us about the things that went wrong within the group so far and also the consequences of these things. The main thing that we were consulted about was the simple fact of Mike, whom last week did not attend the lesson because he was preparing for his holiday and had all the contact details for the people whom auditioned for the parts within our webseries, or though this was not a majour set back for us as a group, because we could easily access the contact details online.

Our teacher saw it nessesary to cut our budget to just £30 instead of £50, which wasnt a big draw back for us but was of course something we could of done without, but we still managed to buy the props we needed on the budget we had so overall nothing was realy effected by this budget cut. Another task which was mentiond was that we each individually have to update the groups faccebook, myspace, & twitter pages more regulary in order to get more followers / audience for our web-series.

After the brief discussion I set the group up with a variety of tasks which are shown below:

  • Record narratation for video ( Mike & Matt)
  • Sort out / complete story boards (Matt & Tara)
  • Organise cast / crew for the video (Mike)
  • Organise / complete the request for the shoot (Tara)
  • Organise the budget sheet (Tim)
  • Place photos of the crew (us) onto face book (Sam / Alie)
  • Upload naratations to laptop (Matt)
  • Contact teacher to see if we can use room for filming (Tim)
  • Sort out the camera & equipment & tape (Matt & Sam)
  • Make sure taht every one knows their roles for the filming shoot (Myself)
