Production evaluation

1. How well did you work in a group? Give specific examples.

On a whole I think our video production could have gone a lot better, but due to one member of our team off sick most of the time, me and Minha had to complete this production at a quick pace, if we were given more time to work on our single camera production we would have completed it to the best quality, in our group I think we worked well together, but because most of the pressure of videoing and editing was up to me and Minha to complete it made our group skills a lot weaker because it was just a two person group.


2. What difficulties did you overcome in the production of the video and how did you overcome them?

There are many difficulties that we had to overcome during the process of our video production, for example;
Editing; most scenes where too short, so this was a big problem when it came to the finishing stages of our video because the time length was too short.
 Videoing; most scenes where either in crowded areas and other scenes where taken outside were a lot hard to record and film.
Lighting problems; there were many issues with the lighting, so it was a lot hard to record.



3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
 From our audience feedback as a group we learned that we could have done more in terms of filming our production and some other feedback that we generated told us that as a whole we worked really well as a team of two considering the circumstances we were in.

Diary Log


In our whole single camera unit we have had different views and opinions from everyone in the group. Our group had various ideas about what we should try and video, we mad many mind maps together (Minha, Warda & Sabeena) then because one of our team members was away me and Minha carried on with this production. 
Within our production we kept a log of dates that showed the different tasks completed.

Risk Assessment



Hazard:



Cause of Harm:

Likelihood of events:

Subject to harm:

How much harm:

Resolution:
Stairs:
The stairs might have spillages and water or any other types of water fluids could be on the floor.


There could be incidents that could occur, but if the area is cleaned toughly   regularly that is unlikely
the actors that could be on set, the camera crew and any other member of staff on set
Subject could get a sprained ankle or could break some bones depending on how slippery the surface is
Make records of any spillage that is found and will show who and when cleaned the spillage

Fighting on set:




 On set this could be a physical fight with punching or any other way of physical abuse, sharp objects could be involved
Unlikely as mats and other useful equipment that will be used to ensure the actors and actresses are safe.
When warda’s character is being run over by a car, we will ensure warda’s safety, while on set
Cuts and bruises might occur
Place mats which she can fall on will be on set and she will be wearing protective clothing just in case.


The weather:



Rain, hail stones can occur since we live in the UK  we can’t be dependent on the weather
There is less likely to be accidents while shooting because we must insure all actors/ actresses are safe
Actors/ actresses on set
Could cause a lot of bruising and sore limbs and the surfaces could be very slippery and dangerous
We will only start shooting when the weather is suitable and predicted to be good


Criminals:



When it comes to equipment on set, camera props and other sharp objects
Very unlikely as each location we go to there will be security. But in our local locations it is open to youths and thugs
Camera crew and other staff on set
Cuts bruises and/ stabbing of knifes
We will have security, neighborhood watch and other types of staff that will make sure that anyone who isn’t supposed to be on set isn’t there.

Diary Log; as a group we came together and evaluated the risks that might occur
