Planning Practical Issues

Planning Practical Issues 



Software we will need to use

  • iStopMotion - is used to create moving images. We used iStopMotion to animate the animation 
  • Adobe Premier - is used to edit videos and add sound/effects. we used Adobe Premier to edit to animation
  • Adobe Photoshop - is used to edit photos and images. we used photoshop to edit photos and images. 

Issues we may have 

The only issues we had in the past was with the software Adobe Premier because it wouldn't let me create a title and it kept coming up with errors.

Crew Members 

All of the crew members should try and work well together so we can try and get the animation done on time

Props and Money

We may not need any props, we only need a background and a camera. We dont need any money for this animation

Time Management 

Our aim is to complete our animation on time


Health and Safety

We need to follow safe practices in the studio and make sure any wires are out of the way so there isn't any accidents and make sure everything is cleared away.

Communication and link for proof

Arts Award - Animation and Leadership

Arts Award - Leadership - Unit 2

We have been put into groups and make something of our choice.My group I have Craig who has chosen to be the Animator and Jack who is the Editor/Sound Editor  we have chosen animation because it is easier to do and we decided as a group and we like doing animation in our course.

We are making a short animation as a member of the team as a promotional piece for the Arts Award. In this team i am in charge of model creating 


Model Maker and Responsibilities: 

Model Makers are members of the team that produces the working models, props, and/or puppets for Stop Motion Animation. 

I am in charge of making Props and the Models and I have to work with Craig the Animator i will try my best as the Model Maker and that i will work well with my team through out this task.  Model Makers may be briefed by others in the team, and they are more likely to handle the entire process, from start to finish. In addition to their own work, Model Makers may be required to supervise other members of the team.

Key Skills:

  • high level of various craft skills combined with artistic ability; 
  • knowledge and use of a wide range of materials;
  • ability to communicate with colleagues and work as part of a team, keeping Supervisors or Production Managers advised of progress or problems.

The Skills I want to develop are:


  • I want to develop and improve My Model Making Skills so next time when i make models then i can be better at making models
  • I want to develop and improve My Teamwork Skills and Communication Skills so next time when i have to work as a team, i can be a better team person and communicate with the other members and work well together.

BBC Trip

BBC Trip

Last week we went to a trip to the BBC and we had to ask some questions about working in the BBC and how can we get into the TV/Radio industry. These are the pictures i took at the trip to the BBC in Newcastle. I found this experience worth going to because the BBC were able to show us around the areas such as

  • The Library contains lots a videos and tape which they can used again for  example anniversaries  and other important historical and cultual events.
  • The weather room shown in my second picture. normally there are only one person working in this room unless they cannot used the technology. This is room is used for weather and traffic reports.
  • The main set of the studio is used for news, and they used the hard news first to get everyones attention who is watching at home and then the soft news after then the weather in between.
  • The weather background they show on tv is to inform the audience that there will be a broadcast on the news will be next.
  • The main radio studio is used for the radio on the morning and the producer and the presenter have a screen which they both communicate, so it makes it easier for the presenter so he can keep on talking. I found this really interesting as they use it for recent news because the presenter and the producer are usually in the different room.


Some jobs that you can have working for the BBC and these are:





Questions asked during the visit to BBC Newcastle:

Q:How do you begin find work in this area?
     
A:You can check the website or you can have work experience to find work near your area

Q:What kind of qualifications or experience do you need?

A: The qualifications differs on the role that you want to do in the TV/Radio Industry 

Q: What are the typical working hours for this kind of job?

A: For the presenter the working hours is mixed about 70 hours 

Q: What other job opportunities could you progress onto after working in this area?

Review
























How could I make it better for next time?

I could done more research on website design and go into more detail when I explain what i did and i could of achieved more and learnt more and took my time instead of rushing my work.



What did I learn from it?
i learned how easy it is to add music playlist and video playlist onto my blogger with help from www.podsnack.com and www.tubesnack.com and that website design is a little when you do research about it and by actually doing little things and i can use this knowledge for next time I make a website,



Did I achieve what I wanted to achieve?

yes i think i achieve what i wanted to achieve which is to learn more about website design and that i can use it next time when i design a website or edit a website.

I have shared this with some of the people in my class and they have written a comment at the bottom of this post...
