The first edit I saw, I wasn't a massive fan of. The camera was shaking, the background music was too loud and the openings scenes caused for confused (as mentioned by the other group)

The final edit.

I liked the final edit and you can see Josh's and Matty's progress which is good. However again the shakey and ubstable camera puts me off and not having any subtitles. We spoke about adding them in but they decided against them in the end

# data[].attributes.body
We decided as a group to keep the editing group to a smaller number as possible so Josh and Matty were the main editors and everyone else had their own input if they wanted.

The other group assisted in editing and gave us help on what looked right and what didn't

This was sent to Rachel Radford our EPK file creator.

Our whole group had to provide information and send photos in order for Rachel to create this.

I was the producer and oversaw the entire production and was the main point of contact between my group and Doddington hall. (all communication went through me and I organised everything)

I'd say even though I'm unaware of the outcome I'm most proud of this project as producing is something I enjoy and I'm proud of the work I've produced for this documentary.

I studied Textiles, RE philosophy and ethics (that's one A level btw) and BTEC applied science. So studying film production at university is completely new for me.

I mainly want to be a screenwriter and or director and producing is something I also wouldn't mind doing. But the fiction side of things (eg writing) is more up my street.

First draft:

Our orignial plan was to make a documentary about Doddington Hall and Gardens, filming the volunteers and what they do. We also wanted to show the importance of nature and how it helps with mental health etc.

Final Draft:

after a few filming days and editing we decieded as a group to focus on one of our contributord (Roshana) and focus on her reserach for her PhD and how she will take her research back to Nepal to help combat the floods and climate change that is happening.

Josh, Matty and Toby attended filming for the final parts of our documetary.

They filmed Roshana (our contributor) doing her research on her studies to help Nepal combat the floods and help with climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
Due to the weather forecast, we collectively decided as a group to postpone filming for the day as due to the environment it wouldn't be a safe idea to film.

However the rest of the group rescheduled for Tuesday to film the final parts

This was a shoot film by Josh and Toby. Matty pulled out last minute and Euan was MIA (even after multiple messages)

During the shoot Josh kept me upated at all times so I was aware of what was going on during production.

They both spoke to Rashana and interviewed her more and came to the conclusion that our documenatry should be more focused on Rashana and her reserach instead of Doddington Hall itself.

For the next shoot day we decided to film Rashana doing her research and get more actuality shoots instead of her just sitting down and talking to the camera

# data[].attributes.body
On the 2nd November I attended the East Kirby RAF base to help the other group with their documentary.

I spent the day being Zoe's AP as well as the person who looked after the equipement when other members of the group went to go film else where.

I helped Zoe with the location and personal release forms and I also overwatched some of the filminf in Rachels group during the taxing run filmings.

# data[].attributes.body
Once arrive I supervised the set up and agreed with Josh on where everything should go and what we want the shoot to look like for the interview.

Whilst the families arrivied I along with Isobel explained to the parents what we were doing today and ask if they wanted to be involved before asking them to sign any forms. All parents agreed and we were able to film all children with no complications. However Catherine didn't want to be filmed so we asked her if prehaps she wanted to be audio recored just as a comprimise and she kindly agreed to do so for the nature walk.

After the nature walk we decided to film the work shop and get a birdseye view of the children creating wreaths and also took this time to interview Roshana.

The second workshop unfortunately got cancelled so we packed up for the day and left earlier than intended.

We found out from Isobel that Roshana is from Nepal and is currenty studying at the University of Lincoln for her PhD.

We thought thought the reason why shes volunteering at Doddington would be interesting so decided she would be a good point of focus.

# data[].attributes.body
We had a test shoot October 23rd and on October 25th we planned to film the workshops takinbg place and also interview the volunteers.

Catherin runs the work shops with her two volunteers Roshana and ...

They go on a nature work with the families first to collect items for the workshops ands then after the walk the create wreaths, animals etc with the items used on the walk.

Our plan is to film the nature walk audio to get a better understanding of what the workshop is about and then film the crafts the children make during the work shop.

We also plan on interviewing the volunteers and ask them multiple questions about their job.

# data[].attributes.body
After multiple emails back and forth with Isobel about requirements, technicalities and filming premissions, we were finally able to film at doddington.

# data[].attributes.body
After getting in contact with Isobel, Matty and Josh went down to doddington hall to meet with Isobel and talk about potential ideas we may have.

We also looked at the weather forecast and took some photos of surronding areas.
