Time Table⋆.˚ ☾⭒.˚
Week 1
This week, we started researching into different types of genres as well as our own preferred genre. We faced complications with the groups originally assigned by Mr. Nick and took a long time discussing with each other to finalize our desired teammates. After a week of compromising and considering pros and cons, my original group decided to split into two and form another group instead. I have already completed my Preliminary Research and would have to finalize my genre research. Overall, despite the challenges we faced this week, my research seems to be going well.
Week 2
This week, we did more genre research on specific music videos of our choice. We were told to complete six researches by 23rd of October. A difficulty I faced was time management because in the same week, I had to fly to Surabaya for a family event. On top of that, our grade also had to do photoshoot which made me even busier. Thankfully, before all that, I had quite a few researches done, so after all the photoshoot sessions ended I just had to continue where I left off during my free time (now I have 3 researches done). I plan on finishing and finalizing my research as fast as possible so I could spare time to check for errors before the deadline. Overall, despite the challenges I faced this week with time management, my progress is doing very well.
Week 3
This week, we didn't do much except continuing our genre research. We were told that the deadline for our genre research was due at the end of the week, so I really had to speed up my process. A difficulty I faced was, again, time management. Although I started my research earlier than the others, I still sort of rushed in the end because I gradually got busier with other things, hence halting my research process. Additionally, another difficulty I faced was trying to be as specific as possible with all the section details (target audience, binary opposites, etc.) because there was so many and it was impossible for me to cover all of them. Figuring them out in the first place was already difficult. However, with the help of Google and some websites (who discusses deeper about hidden meanings/metaphors), I was able to complete my research. Overall, despite the challenges, I still enjoyed the process a lot because I got to learn more about the songs and MVs I truly enjoy.
Week 4
This week, we finally started our storyboard and statement of intent. These two are pretty challenging to do. We took a lot of time completing the statement of intent because we couldn't decide on a song. After a few more discussions with my teammates and Mr. Nick, we finally settled on a song we all liked. Another problem we faced with the statement of intent was describing our artist persona. We didn't really have a vision of what our artist would be like, so that section was empty for a while. After we had a lesson on persona, we finally understood the meaning of persona and we were able to fill in our artist persona.
Additionally, we also faced some challenges with the storyboard. We took a long time figuring out the visuals, technical elements, durations, etc. However, doing the storyboard with the whole group present really helped us focus on the storyboard, because being together allowed us to share many different ideas and inputs. Overall, despite the challenges we faced, we were able to overcome it through group discussions and communication.
Week 5
This week, we started our location scout & risk assessment. This task was relatively easy, because we settled on a couple locations already. However, if I were to describe a difficulty, it would be figuring out whether we have permission to film in said locations or not. For example, we planned on filming at a dark parking lot for our band performance scene. First of all, we don't know if we would be able to film there in the first place, and second of all, we have not figured out how to bring all the instruments needed (drums especially) into the parking lot. We hope to figure this out as soon as possible so we can get to filming. Overall, we were able to complete our location scout & risk assessment successfully, we just have to figure a few things out.
Week 6
This week, all our lessons were focused on our project. Because we finished our Unit Assessment, we were able to use the whole week to finalize our pre-production. I used the time to finish our mood board, and I have successfully sent it to my group and inputted it into my blog. Additionally, I also tried continuing our persona classwork. So far, I already have our mood board, location scout & risk assessment along with all the reflections needed completed. Overall, we are almost done with our pre-production and will use the remaining time wisely to finalize them.
Reflection๋࣭⭑𖥔‧₊˚ ⊹
Completing my weekly progress was actually quite simple. It doesn't take up much time and I pretty much knew what to say because Mr. Nick had provided us with the template and a time table to keep us on track. However, the only problem would be coming back to it itself. Due to how busy I got with pre-production, I often forgot to update the weekly progress, so I ended up completing it near the deadline and not weekly (as ideally suggested). Next time, I would have to come back to the weekly progress regularly to prevent forgetting our past activities/agendas. Overall, I still managed to complete it just fine with the help of the time table.
