Week 5

In preproduction stage, we had to split from a group of 6. We decided to split into 3 people for each group but I found another person which gave us a fourth person. Greg worked in video production so he had experience and was a big asset to our team. Everyone seemed to work well together and brought their talents to the table. I felt very fortunate and proud to work with these individuals. I wrote another script from the script we had originally decided on to make our group focus on identity threats instead of children online threats which we decided on with the first group. Once I wrote the script, Linda tested the time on the script and since I left it wordy to cut back if needed to, it worked out well. Kathy liked the flow and direction of the script but also realized it would need editing before we were done. Greg felt it needed a more catchy beginning and maybe needed to include the “don’ts” and leaving the do’s out. I made some changes and tried a catchier introduction using statistics and I left the dos out and pointed them to a website for more information. At this point, it has lead us to the production phase. It was time to shoot the video and make final changes to the script if needed to. Gregg was in charge of the footage and he did continually assess the shot list to make sure he had enough footage. He included a variety shots, including an established shot, closing shot, and both wide and tight shots.
