Production Journals - Monday 4th July

Order of play:
  • Spend a good 25 minutes adding to - or STARTING, for some of you - your production journals for your documentary films
  • Discuss textual analysis of Eden Lake, with my feedback
  • Target setting for the next stage of your documentaries



What and how?
  • Your production journals are your INDIVIDUAL records of your documentary work. That means you do them alone (although you can discuss some points with your group first)
  • You need to keep these on your blogs. Label them "production journal" so they are easy to find
  • On them you need to EVALUATE your work so far - how well are you doing in your own role as writer, researcher, etc? What successes have you had? What problems have you encountered and how have you solved them? What changes have you made, and why? What do you need to do next? 
  • The more detailed your journals, the better. Remember, they will be assessed, along with the materials you produce as a group
And finally
The amount of effort you guys have put in so far has been really impressive. Not only that, the maturity you have shown, your creativity, and your initiative so far on this project - a massive pat on the back for everyone. But it's not cigars and champagne time yet...so keep working!!!
