Progress/Log Sheet

DATE:	WHAT WE DID:
21/09/16	We discussed our initial ideas and decided on doing a music video
23/09/16	We began to research the sort of genre we wanted to do and had a look to see what stereotypically goes into those sorts of music videos. I completed Prezi's on my findings.
28/09/16	After researching genres we decided it would be best to compile a survey to confirm what our chosen target audience prefers. After making the survey we both went around school and asked various age groups if they could fill it in.
5/10/16	After we had got the surveys completed; Katie began the survey analysis to identify what was most popular, discovering that pop/dance was the favourite among teenagers and young adults.
12/10/16	We then looked at typical pop video's and began to research the background of pop music. We then to put our research together and started doing Prezi's for our research. We also picked several videos from our chosen genre, which inspired us and also did Prezi’s for that information.
21/10/16	As we were now certain that pop/dance was our chosen genre, we looked up un-copyright songs and found one called ‘On & On’ this seemed ideal for what we wanted to do. We discussed what we wanted to include in our video and used the previous music video research for some initial ideas.
2/11/16	We have now decided our locations for the video so I filled in location documents and Recci's whilst Katie did the storyboard.
9/11/16	We conducted our test shots, to ensure our shots would work out. I Filmed whilst Katie featured in them.
11/11/16	We started the filming of our production, starting with the opening time lapse, in which we did together. This did not go as smoothly as we hoped and we had to relocate the tripod several times in order to get a clear view of the sky.
18/11/16	I filmed the darker cloudy time-lapse for our video and as the rest of the filming is needed to be done outside of school grounds we started thinking about our ancillary tasks and how we would conduct the Digipack. I took pictures for the magazine and took shots for our initial album artwork cover.
25/11/16	Continued to work on our production, filling in paperwork etc. We also needed to change our artwork in order to achieve the finish we wanted. I researched and Katie edited the final design.
9/12/16	We have now completed our ancillary tasks. Choosing to do an album artwork and magazine front cover.
14/12/16	We finished our prezi’s for our ancillary tasks and I started to work on my blog.
11/1/17	Katie continued to film scenes such as, the motorway, car and sparkler. I filmed the hand-holding scene which unfortunately did not go to plan due to lighting issues, so we decided to incorporate stock footage instead.
18/1/17	We are now in the process of editing our main task and have completed all filming for it.
3/2/17	We have now started doing our evaluation questions. I also completed the evaluation of our survey analysis.
8/2/17	Katie has finished editing of our film and we have published it on YouTube.
10/2/17	We have now finished evaluation questions and are in the process of making sure we have done everything. We decided it would be good to get opinions on our production, in which I added to my evaluation question.
