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 I manages to get my meet my final deadline but I did struggle
time? due to multiple different issues that I faced. Most of my actors
cancelled on me so I had to find different people also they
cancelled after they were already filmed in my production so I
had to delete the footage. The next issue was, one of my main
actors didn’t show up all the time and then he got suspended
on a day when I needed to film him so I had to go to him late
at night and we had to film in another different location.

How did you gain feedback? Was this
process effective/valuable?
I gained feedback from three different ways. I had written
feedback from my teacher James how told what I needed to
improve on and also what was missing and what was good.
The next type of feedback that I got was verbal. I spoke to my
other teachers Adam and Sarah and also some of my other
fellow student. The last form of feedback that I got was via a
survey and that was to tell me what was good about my
production and how I could improve on it

What have you learned from your
feedback?
From my feedback I have learned that I need to improve on
my camera techniques. This is due to some scenes where the
is harsh lighting and also that the camera was very shacking in
some other scene. To improve on my techniques, I will practise
over the summer by making different shot clips and I can also
edit that is well to help me with my editing skills. Next time, I will
also have a camera man and I will take on the role as director

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
