Post Production in Process

Production

In this, context relates to the ability to use practical, technical skills and knowledge to explore, adapt and effectively communicate ideas in the realisation of identified goals. Likely to be evidenced in personal reflective journals, images, notebooks, recordings, artefacts and through other practical media related outcomes.

 

Where possible try to document production as it happens. It is strongly recommended you produce a written or video vlog after every production session and reflect on how the session went. Pay special attention to obstacles overcome or things that went particularly well. How are you going to move forward?

The production stage is where you want to highlight your research and pre production skills have been put to use. Reflect and analyse how your initial research has been used within your filming production stages. This could be from researching practical skills test such as lighting effects or cinematography skills, all the way to editing effects within post production.

Production is where we can see your abilities, research, planning and decision making, as well as your learning journey. Production should highlight all aspects of your development and be in the form of a production diary or audio/video commentary  with lots of reflection. Try to include the following;

 

Pay close attention to the following during production phase:
 

  • Creativity 

  • Problems & solutions 

  • Where research has helped / could have improved.

  • Time management

  • group meetings / dynamics 

  • Cinematography

  • Lighting

  • Audio

  • Post Production Workflow (format, frame rate, efficiency)

​

Filming - (Production) 2 weeks of a production log. lots of reflection!

Include a production process / diary of all filming and recording. Behind the scenes imagery, video or sounds to help us understand the learning process. This should have clear reflection and analysis of how research has been used within your practical stage. I.E How lighting research has been used in your interview. 

​

​

Editing - (Post Production) 2-3 weeks of a production log. lots of reflection!

This will need to include the following;
- Footage review / edit decision lists 
- Rough-cut editing with reflections 
- Problems and solutions - reshoots 

- Final editing stages with tutorials used 

- Clear reflections within a production diary.
