Overall there are good and bad points within this unit:
Good
- The trailer looks good: I am pleased with how the shots held up and all participants did a great job helping me out with it. The text on screen was a miscommunication between me and Vic: I envisioned text that was inside the world; floating around with Jamie. However I didn't explain this well enough and Vic took it as twitter tweets on the screen.
- The behind the scenes footage is good also: the scripts tell a better story and are easier to keep up with. Charlie and myself worked well together in our behind the scenes to script and film some good material. Although the scripts weren't followed mostly and it's only one video Vic did a great job piecing footage together and creating something that's pretty cohesive and feels like a true behind the scenes video.
- I'm very happy with the logo: I think it advertises the show well. The pixellation effect emphasises the online aspect of the show and the silhouette with the text-speech bubble shows the programme's debate aspect. The colour scheme fits very well and in terms of this: our team actually worked well to combine ideas to ultimately create a solid logo.
Bad
- Communication was our team's biggest flaw. Information wasn't passed through the ranks well with members of the group not finding out about things or news unless it was either too last or someone else told them. This is just my Promotions team I'm talking about. In terms of the entire class communication was again a huge flaw: pieces of information that one particular member was supposed to pass was instead passed via someone unrelated to the subject. This happened quite a few times in all departments. There was essentially no hierarchy in our group with the wrong people being notified on things rather than the people who were supposed to be told.
- There were issues with the behind the scenes regarding missing footage or being unable to use/find footage but a behind the scenes video is still of a good standard.
Things to take from this unit:
Only one thing: communicate better - Even if I think I've made my point or explained my idea I should attempt to make sure whoever I'm explaining it to is on the same page as me and understands. Also I should communicate with people in higher positions about events, ideas or changes in things just incase they are not already aware of these changes etc
