progress

Below, is a documentation of my original time plan that was created for the purpose of me to structure and manage the tasks ahead of me.Using a Gantt chart technique helped me to understand the duration for each task and how I can break down the task in the week.

Planning

now reflecting back at my original time plan, I can look closely at what i have achieved in the time i initailly set.I planned to finish the website, poster and teaser by 23rd of march. Although i have met the deadline of the same week, i still haven't updated aspects which should have been finised on that date. Also i took extra time for filming because of the quility of the shot when we began to edit the teaser. the lighting was poor and had to be ajusted.

Althought the original plan considers aspects such as holidays, i forgot about my proority over my extended project quilification and studing for my resits, also, I study subjects that have a big pecentage for coursework and so, i have been over loaded with ork and deadlines to meet every week.

The editing process started later on and so left us little time for editing, so we were given an extentin due to circumstances, we then stayed after school often in order to meet the new deadline.

Drafts and Final
These are my drafts of my poster and website designs in order of development. i had changed my design so many times due to my target audience feedback. Many said that the first draft was nice but looks as if there is to much going on on the page.
By my final draft me and some of the target audience finally agreed that the final design suits the purpose of interesting the audience.

Question to my target audience in a state of confusion.

Question

Key Quetions, synopisis and contacting actresses

Update of the Synopsis
There are a group of disliked popular friends who are mysteriously invited to a party never to be forgotten. One of the girls amongst them has a dual nature that they are not aware of and each is given a pill where there life depends on their choice. If they chose the wrong pill, which is identical to the safe one, they will die. Their life depends on the right choice of pill. Their fate lies in the pill.

Filming Schedule
As I am the cinematographer, I know that it is important to have a schedule for everyone to be able to see what dates I have planned to film and to see whether my actresses are available for these dates.
I wrote a checklist weekly where i wrote down what shots I wanted to shoot, then I emailed my actresses and they replied to me if they were available or not.
