WEEKLY JOURNALS

This is where you think about your FMP learning journey and development.
Don’t simply describe what you did - consider what you have learnt and how this has benefitted
your project. What do you need to improve?

THIS IS JUST GUIDANCE THAT YOU NEED TO ADAPT TO YOUR OWN PROJECT. YOU HAVE CREATED YOUR
OWN PRODUCTION SCHEDULES AND YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS SHOULD REFELCT THAT.

THESE QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN THE WEEKS YOU COMPLETED THEM. DO NOT JUST SUBMIT THIS
FORM FILLED IN FOR YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS. THERE SHOULD BE 11 WEEKLY BLOG ENTRIES (INCLUDING
EASTER).

Week Ten – Final production

EDITING

Did you finish your production on Yes I did finish my production on time. I finished my production
time? on the last day so the deadline was perfect.

How did you gain feedback? Was this
process effective/valuable?
For feedback I asked teachers to look at my work and
comment if I needed to add anything and see what I could
improve on, this was effective because the teachers helped
me a lot and told me what to add to make my production
high standard.

What have you learned from your From my feedback I have learnt how to evaluate my
feedback? production and compare my work to other professionals work.

How did your work compare to
professional productions?
To be completely honest I don’t think my documentary is very
similar to a lot of documentaries about immigration or other
participatory documentaries. I think this because my
documentary is just my parents telling a story of how they
moved country. As I mentioned in my evaluation next time I
want to add a bit more in the middle like a little section about
maybe like news articles or other personal stories to make my
production more interesting

Have you completed your final I have completed my final evaluation. Although I have
evaluation? completed it I want to go back and add a bit more detail to
make my evaluation high standard

Are you on track this week? If not, I think I am on track for this week. As I said I have completed
how far behind are you? my evaluation I just want to add a bit more to it to make it
high standard

What work do you need to complete Outside of lessons I just need to clean up my Unit 8 tabs and
outside of lessons to stay on track? pages to make everything look clean and place it where it
should be.

High Grade Tips

Evaluation & Reflection

● ‘reasoned decisions and inform the development of ideas’ – both your evaluation and the
weekly reflections above will clearly show both how and why your ideas developed throughout
the project
● ‘demonstrating clarity in thinking’ – all of the above plus very clear links between your research,
planning, idea development and the production of your poster and film trailer
