This week I had the main role to start the master script, not only did I need to stay on top of this I helped out my other team members to ensure they were on the right track and going in the right direction. This week producing the master script was difficult as I was given a three day time frame for complete rows A-F and H. The reason for this small time gap was because myself and my teacher felt that as a class we were running behind and we could not afford to be left behind with the Live Day being so close. As I had such a huge chunk of the script to do I had dedicated a whole day for it and had completed my part up to 121 shots. As it was a Google document I was able to track how the lighting manager, sound manager, cameraman and set designer was progressing with their specific column. I was worried as some of it was not done. I had spoke to them individually and explained how important it was for this to be completed, without it the show will be a complete disaster. With this firmly set they had completed the script to a good understanding by the end of the week. Listed below is how I contributed to everyone's set task this weeks.
Farhana (VT Operator) - Farhana has been on top of her tasks this week she had completed the editing of the montage, street beat and had added idents at the beginning and end of every VT used. Farhana needed no help whatsoever and I was happy with the way she edited everything.
Jada/ TJ (Presenters) - Jada and TJ both completed the script, when reading over the script there were a few things that needed to be changed due to some of the things we had time to do. For example in the script there was talk of a Skype call. If we were to have a Skype call that would mean that we would need to make more VT's and edit them. Because of the short time frame we are not able to do the Skype call so we decided to use another location within the studio and turn that into a tweet area and change the questions asked to the guest a tweet log.
Antony (Camera man) - Antony had to complete his section in the master script (Camera instructions). To test out his camera instructions we need to wait til Tuesday which is our rehearsal day for any changes on the camera instructions
Prinul (Floor Manager) - Prinul had a small task to do and that was the call sheets, when that was done I had asked him to help Taylor with some of the set design as it had linked in with the floor manager job role.
Ravinder (Lighting) - Ravinder did some light testing with Jada and TJ to see how they look with the light on them as they will be on camera, in the upcoming week when the set is finally put together he will need to see the shadows and what he needs to do with the lighting to ensure they are limited and not seen.
Kaval (Sound Mixer) - Kaval was again on top with the music, he had looked through the master script and had filled out at what points needed sound effects and music playing.
Prabhjyot (Graphics) - Prab needed to look through the master script and note down where the graphics needed to be, his graphics so far to my knowledge are on top and are ready to use in the rehearsal on Tuesday.
In the upcoming week as a class we have decided that we will have a run through rehearsal on Tuesday as on Wednesday there is a UCAS day. because we are missing out on a day it is vital to do as much cleaning up as possible for live day which is on a Thursday. It will also be a day of experiment to see whether our ideas will work etc.
