prelim Evaluation

Production diary:
On Monday we were first put into our groups, the group included Josh, Leah , Amara and Lorna.

The next day we came up with ideas for the film and made a plan, we had an idea to begin with but we wasn't happy with it so we changed it. The next idea that we came up with was to have a boy in a classroom that couldn't read, we planned out the setting, characters and props that we needed. We also decided on what each person would do when making the film, Josh would edit and act, Lorna would act and Leah and Amara would film. Josh also made the script for this.

The next  lesson we made a story board of the film clip and the shooting schedule, we planned out the days that we would film and how long the filming would last. We also planned out which days we would edit the film.

The next two lessons we spent filming, we did the whole film a few times so that when we looked at them back we could choose the best of each shot.

We then spent 2 lessons editing and evaluating, Leah and Josh did the editing , Amara did the evaluating and Lorna made the logo.
