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?

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, my production was completed on time
time?

How did you gain feedback? Was this
process effective/valuable?
I gained through my teachers marking my work and giving me
the positives of what was good about my work, whilst also
receiving ways to improve, which was helpful as I was being
told on how to change. This was very effective as it resulted in
me always being able improve my work getting it to the
highest possible standard. This was valuable as it gave me the
feedback to boost my grade.

What have you learned from your
feedback?
From my feedback, I was told pointers that I should change
from my rough edit, such as moments when my (actor)Luke
Burkey is shown smiling/laughing at the camera, this was
changed when putting different footage at the time codes
said in the feedback.

How did your work compare to
professional productions?
My work compared to a professional production as I felt my
editing was done very well this resulted in it having a very
professional standard, on the other hand I think my camera –
work could have been improved so I could have had less
unfocused shots and a shaky camera.

Have you completed your final Yes, handed it in on time, waiting for feedback on it to then do
evaluation? improvements which I may have been given from my teacher
to make my work significantly better, increasing my potential
grade.

Are you on track this week? If not, Yes, everything is complete.

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
