Unit 4: Creative Media Production Management Project

This week has been a productive week for the FMP. I have spent the week on filming the shots required for each topic.  At the beginning of the week, I decided to use a structure of filming for the first topics as they required A-Roll and B-Roll while the other two only required A-Roll as the B-Roll will be created digitally at a later date. The structure would begin with filming B-Roll for the A-Roll from the previous day and then record the A-Roll for a new topic. On Monday, I begun by recording the A-Roll of Setting Up Equipment. As this was the first shoot, on every shoot I make sure that all the equipment I will be using is ready for use such as the camera, radio-mic, SD Card, Greenscreen etc. There was an issue with the camera recording to a specific SD card.

The FMP project is a unit based on being able to originating, planning, filming and editing our own film idea. It could be any idea we have (within reason and that is possible in our circumstances). This project is considered to be a solo project although could be completed with other people. Although due to our current circumstanced with COVID, it isn't possible.  At the beginning of the unit, we have to come up with 3 project ideas and make a PowerPoint explaining our three ideas and a 250 word justification on our chosen idea.  This is the PowerPoint of the three ideas for the FMP.  After the FMP was sent, we now had to create a Pitch PowerPoint that would be presented in a Team Meeting on Monday 1st February. I had conducted a survey that would aid me in defining my target audience and figuring out what they want in a production techniques tip video.  After the pitch was presented, the pre-production stage could begin. This would start with research. More precisely: Audience Re
