17th Oct: Peter, short doc

The task for today was to make a short documentary or film on a theme.
i came in late so i joined Imogen and Ezra, we each took turns into making our short film. My theme idea was Tall. i chose different shots and images for example a tall tree (facing camera up) to capture an video shot.
i managed to capture a few shots and then edit them into an interesting sequence with music.
We then showed them to the rest of the class.
Peter's feedback was positive. He said that i managed to complete the task even though i came in late and therefore produced a positive piece.

18th oct: Futsal pitch for Colin

Today i pitched my idea to Colin for the Futsal show. i felt that i delivered my idea well however i don't think i fully understood what the 30 minutes of the show wold exactly be about as Colin's feedback stated this. He was pleased that i made a Budget and delivered my whole idea however i didn't fully think about the pre-production part of the budget. Also the 30 minute didn't just have to be v.t, it could been live parts too.
Things i might have to change: some budget parts
                                                 some parts of the 30 min footage

This afternoon everyone grouped together to make the pre-production work for the practice session on Sunday 28th.
I am working on an idea for a V.T within the program.

V.T Idea

History of Futsal.
some footage of the internet about when futsal first started- not allowed so maybe make some graphics or drawings for the v.t to show how it used to be and then some footage that i will be filming on tuesday about how futsal is now.
some questions asked to one of the team members via box pop.

Sam: research on student night life for V.T

Students:
Number of students in City aged 18 and over:
Over 85,000
Manchester has four Universities, Manchester, UMIST, Manchester Met and Salford.
There are also another 14 Universities and higher education institutions in surrounding areas, making the total population of almost 350,000 students within an hour's drive time of Manchester.



Student population: 50,000



Manchester’s strong music history has led to a great Manchester nightlife along with some great student nights in Manchester.
There is a wide selection of music genres in Manchester’s nightclubs. Here is the ultimate guide to the best student (and student friendly) clubs in Manchester.
5th Avenue is a student favourite. There is a cheap and cheerful feel about the club and drinks are cheap. It is best to get to 5th Avenue early to avoid long queues. Wednesday night is a hot pick and you will usually find both floors of the club overspilling with students. The music takes a mainstream indie feel with dance tracks added in for extra spice.

Tue 8th... Pete: first act

Today, the acts from lever street came down and we did a practice rehearsal. we made an interview room behind one of the walls and then had all the main studio set up with 3 cameras, one on a dolly. we made the lighting look creative to set the atmosphere. Because Erin wasn't here, i took over to be the interviewer. i was also the floor manager for the interview room where i had to listen out for when the act has finished in the main studio and make sure they are in the interview room in good time  counting down for the start of the interview.
