Project Management and Monitoring Production – 10/01/12

In this week, I planned to complete various tasks. The first task I scheduled myself to complete was the photoshoot plans. I have been successful in this task, and managed to creat two individual photoshoot plans. I also planned to complete the plans for my article, but the call sheets took longer than expected, and therefore I had less time to complete the article plans. As a result of this, I have still not completed my article plans, so I will complete them in my free lessons so that I am not interfering with this week's schedule.

I also planned to create a document to test my flat plans on my audience this week as homework, but had work all weekend so completely forgot about creating this. Again, I will do this in my free time, but I will have to make sure that I do it this week as I am planning on doing my photoshoot next week, and it would be better if improvements to pictures were suggested beforehand, rather than after the photos have been taken.

The final task I had planned as homework this week was to book my photoshoots. However, I am still having trouble acquiring some of my props, and need to get this sorted before the photoshoot can be booked. I plan to rectify this in the next couple of days, so that my photoshoots can be booked next week. Although I would like to have my photoshoots next week, it is not essential, and I can be quite flexible as I can start to write the articles before photos have even been taken.

I have learnt various skills this week, such as how to create call sheets. Before I had created my schedule, I had never even heard of a call sheet, so to have created 3 in the last week is good. I have also researched more unusual lighting techniques rather than the two or three I have looked at in class.

Overall, I think I have performed well this week, and managed to get the majority of scheduled work done, but I think it is essential that I start to complete more media work out of class, otherwise it is quite possible that I will fall behind schedule.
