Day030 - [Wed190308] Submission day!

We made a rush compiling everything and managed to complete the video, despite what happen the other day. We finally manage to transfer the video to tape and we all had to present our videos at LT with the rest of the Moving Images students.

We do know our mistakes in our video. Our voice volume were not constant and there were noises in the background, while our intro fast shoot was too fast and weren't much of a plan out and it wasn't taken smoothly, unlike HuiQin's part, which was good.

After the presentation of everyones video, i think that we could have done better if we would have follow strictly to our schedule and avoid changing of plans consistantly.
Raj group was the best, and i think that everyone agrees. It was creative to set a theme of a life as a Moving Images student as an adventure, and they really covered all the details, from the noises to colour correction, from filming to animation.

I think the problem that most of us were always having, are the mindset that we always have time and decided to rush everything in the last week, which i don't think that we should do it at all. Another problem is the consistency of changing and making new ideas that we never really decide on the main idea to work on. But sticking to the schedule is one of the most important thing that we should take note of, and make an effort to cover all areas in the production, like Raj group did.

It is something to be learnt, and by looking at raj group, there shouldn't be any reason why we finished the video later than them. They managed to get the videos done a few days before the submission, and also with such quality and works that were done to make such video, while some of the rest took a longer time for the videos and still didn't produce a much "wow" work.

Well, maybe an output and the measure of the quality of the video depends on the theme of the video such as documentaries and sketch. There are other groups that the videos were interesting and good too. But to do an unexpecting work is another thing. Raj group is certainly one that went over my expectations.
