Words of Advice

Yesterday I helped out at the university with chatting to prospective students. I was able to speak to some third year film students who gave me some great advice on how to approach working in a new group. 


I was advised to sit down with my group and allocate every member with a title; producer, director, editing and sound. I believe this will be able to help us with planning and organising ourselves on the days of shooting and with planning the flow of the project we are working on.
Within the next week, I am going to suggest this to the rest of the team, this should be able to enable us to work to the best of our ability.


The responsibilities:


Producer: location spotting, script, casting, actors present on days of shooting, costume, equipment hire
Director: camera control, actor set up, editing
Editor: editing all footage, keeping a log book whilst shooting on location and making notes of best takes
Sound: music choice, sound levels, sound editing, soundtrack
