This week was a learning curve as not everything went to plan as, within the video and production tasks. We had major issues with the weather as it was raining for the duration of the week and this caused us to delay or filming as you cannot film in the rain. This caused stress within the group because nothing seemed to go to plan as we didn't have a lot to do because we needed to film, but lucky there was a couple of days at the end of the week to film which was lucky because we thought it would carry on raining and we would get anything resolved.  Also we had a lot of disagreeing in the group with roles, so we had a meeting and dicused    it and sorted everything, this was an example of us working as a team and putting all ideas forward and resolving them like adults. 

We presented our work on padlet and also we have started editing which we have done on a editing program. 

In the group we need to improve on working as a team and discussing current issues more with the video so we can move on. Also making sure that we plan days to film and hit deadlines as we are not currently doing that. Which isn't our fault due to weather but we should of taken into account that this could of been as issue and sound of thought about this first. Next week the plan is to complete editing and make sure that we are helping one another and listening to make sure we finish this project.  Mainly making sure that I am in college and being productive to get everything done. In our final product we presented our final finish music video, to improve we would need to focus more time on the editing and researching to improve our quality of our music video. Also if we had the opportunity to take out this task again I would consider improving the shots and the quality and the techniques of our product, but mainly cutting to the beat and dropping the music on the beats. Less shots and more editing needs to be considered. In our final production we was given feedback from people from level 3 about our final production. We mainly had good feedback how people liked the colours that we used throughout the video and effects that was used. We had feedback on what could be improved, for example some of the level 3 gave us advice on what we could do better next time, we where given adive how to improve. For example someone said we could cut to the beat better, changing the clips when the beat drops and maybe change the scene more often.

As we all checked our the actual location and took pictures of it for evidence, there was a few minor barriers. We had a few issues and discussed when a good day would be good to film as the weather conditions where horrible because the forest was completely muddy and some was the field from all the rain. We had to take into account how we was going to work around this as the conditions could be dangerous and cause an accident. We also had to consider what day would be best just encase it rains again and makes the conditions even worst. I think its good that we all went out together to look for the location, not just one person. I am happy that we took a variety of photos because we put them onto a health and safety list for evidence of the weather conditions. 

Below is a padlet post where everyone in the group shares there work that they have done. all the research and the evidence from our outgoing task are in there. Mainly our meetings are in there which is our main evidence of discussing our ideas.
As I am the director and my main job is to take charge, I do make mistakes. I need to make sure I am on time for college every day so I dont miss any group meetings or anything important. I think I personally need to improve on taking leadership and putting my point across a lot more to make a point. I will I have developed good team working skills within the group to listen and take everyone ideas into the group and to observe what everyone else is doing. In next weeks lesson I will make sure everyone is productive and knows exactly what to do, so everything runs smoothly.

•Show: How did you present your work outcomes? You mustinclude photos, print screen or video for evidence. 

During our next session I am determined make sure that I can do as much as I can during the week to push to make this the best as I possibly can. I need to personally improve on getting to college on time so I know that im on track and don't miss anything important within the group.

Every meeting that we have we now record using showibe as evidence to show that we have had an discussion about our outcome. Within my team I have applied alot of skills for this to be a successful and a happy group. I have given feedback and advice when needed, for example when someone in my group had an idea I told them my opinion about that idea. I feel that our group is working well because we are all communicating and listening to each other and giving some good ideas and advice. On Monday there was an issue when choosing the song because not everyone agreed on this, but the way we over come this barrier was by looking at everyone's chosen music video and looked at the urban and nature aspect view of it and voted which one we thought suited best. 

•Show: How did you present your work outcomes? You mustinclude photos, print screen or video for evidence. 

 The producer in my group produced a padlet wall for evidence that we recorded our meetings.
 

What we need to improve on within our groups is being organised and listening to what tasks we actually need to complete and stay on task. Also to help each other out if they are stuck what to do with there chosen job role. I feel like i have learnt how to put my ideas forward. I think I am more focused on getting tasks complete within deadlines and getting everything done, but mainly supporting my team so no one is stuck and to help everyone out. Next lesson I am terminated to start creating our proper story board and having a clear view and idea of what we are going to be doing for the production. 

I applied communication skills and problem solving skills within some team meetings, for example two people in the group wanted to be the same job roll so the way this issue was solved was by using communication to work around the problem. We decided to share the job roles so its fair and everyone is happy.  I am proud of working in a team and trying to help plan out what is going to take place within the group and actually have a plan of what song we want to use ect. Through these activities I feel like i am gaining more confidence in the sense of putting my opinion across and getting used to the environment. Also this week we did a lot of research about each job roll and had to find research and categorise each roll which I found simple as I personally find research tasks enjoyable. 

I presented my research tasks on a padlet wall to represent all my personal research about each job roll. 

I think I need to work on listening to set tasks, as sometimes I feel like I am not properly forced on them and this is a barrier which I need to over come. To solve this issue I need to zone into it because I feel like that a struggle at times. From this week I personally feel like I have gained feedback skills, the reason why I  think this is because when we had to create voice notes about what job role we wanted I have everyone back a personal and direct response. Also I feel like i have gained problem solving skills, which I mentioned earlier.  During need week I am going to make it my aim that I bring more ideas from a creative aspect for our group to strive in success. 

As we was put into groups for a task to create a padlet wall and for each person to the group to find a music video from the different eras. The skills that i applied to this task  was me speaking and interacting with different people in the class as i am quite shy, by me doing to helped me to gain team working skills. To work together to complete the task set.  I have learnt how to how to work well in a team and helped me to gain for confident. 

all of my mind maps i presented onto a word document. shows below.

I need to stay more confident and not worry about anything and just get on with group work, as of the way I am I find it hard, but this week I have become more comfortable which is a good think. I also need to stay more confident work and get it all done. Next lesson we are doing group work so I am aiming to stay confident and to get get on with the team working skills, I think over all I have done well considering how shy I am.

There was a few barriers when doing this task and the reasoning for this is because I couldnt find alot of texture videos that related to my image, I had to find tree bark in music videos for different time periods, It was a barrier to search. The way I overcome this barrier was by looking deep into it and doing more research. I did finally come across a few which made my life easier. I created a padlet wall to show where and how I found my videos.

This is what I did for my extension task for task 3. I used padlet to help me make and create this. 

I need to improve on searching deeper into finding music videos and being quicker at doing so, keep on track with the tasks and also finishing on time. I need to improve on writing more about the videos and being more pathetic on what I am writing about when it comes down to the videos. I also need to stay on task and go deeper into researching videos. Maybe using different resources to find music videos. Next week I will make sure to annotate my work better and correct things that i come across. w

 I completed this task by finding my research all from you tube of the music videos. I used padlet to place all my music videos into columns and I had to write a little summery of what the video was about. It wasn't hard finding you tube videos for most of the eras so I didn't really need to apply any new skills as I knew what to do.
 The only barrier I struggled with, was finding parody videos for later eras like the 1970's/1980's. as it seems to be In them later years there wasn't as main parody videos has there are today in the 2000's.  I am proud that I completed my work on time for finding the parody, commercial, narrative and live in concert videos in time.

This week I need to improve on keeping on top of all the work. I need to also get more research so I have loads to show for evidence and also to take more time in writing summaries. I need to do more research on parody videos in the later eras, I need to take the time in finding and researching about them even if they aren't on you tube. I have used my researching skills this week to find these videos. In my next lesson I will be keep apon all of my work that is set and to do more research and find parody videos maybe on different website's apart from you tube. 

Well we was set the task to choose six urban pictures and six nature images and have three separate copies of the original image and edit them and put them into a contact sheet and anatote each edited image on a contact sheet. I found this task quite challenging as it took a long time to process this 12 times which was hard to stay forced on the same image. At the end of the task it ended well as I successesful  finished all 12 contact sheets and editing the images. I was proud that I completed that task in all one lesson. 

I presented my work on photoshop for all the contact sheets and also the edited images on the contact sheets. example of a contact sheet is at the bottom of the screen. 

I have learnt how to use photo shop a lot better than before and know how to create contact sheets, as before I wasn't to sure.  In my next session I am going to be applying all my knowledge about photoshop how to use it into following session  I have built up knowledge from previous sessions that I have applied  into this task. I am going to keep building up knowledge and applying it to each task. I have done so much research about urban and nature before I made these contact sheets.
