Block A - Day 11 - Pre Production

Today I met Rina earlier this morning to discuss about our opening, commercials and closing shots & scripts for our news. I intended to take some still shots of the angles that I wanted to, but unfortunately I forgot to bring my hand phone that day. So which means I’m notable to take the shots down using my hand-phone camera. If those shots are taken, my group members will be able to understand better.

Actually intended to meet one of the year 2 student to find out more information about the TV studio and wanted to know more about their production. But due to the hand-phone thingy, we didn’t meet.

Well Monday we are meeting for to improve on our script.

Block A - Day 10 - Pre Production (Split)

Today is Valentines Day, therefore half of our group members were gone. Today is also the first day which we discuss among ourselves (Me and Rina). Me and Rina stayed back to do our scripts. Yvonne joined us and discuss with us too. We did the script today and will continue tomorrow.

Block A - Day 9 - Pre Production

Another day of pre production in class is done. The final storyboarding will continue another day. Today we just did a rough storyboard to ensure everyone know what is going on in the video. It’s very hard to descript everything using words or by drawings. I think the best is to recce the place with the group so that everyone would understand better.

We split those contents into 3 different groups of 2. Each group will have to discuss the contents, scripts and etc. Hope by Monday we will be able to finalist everything and to consult Siddons. For me, I’m with Rina.

Block A - Day 8 - Pre Production

Dr. MOI is soon to be born! And a model will soon be missing too! Who are they really? Stay tune to News6! Well as time goes by, the more excited we are. And we climbed higher n higher each day.

We confirmed our opening shot, content one, content two, TVC, casting, and credits. Basically everything had confirmed but we’re still working on it for the rest of the pre production days.

We estimated the length of our video, should be around 15 minutes long. We created 2 characters which will only reveal them on our final presentation day. Tomorrow we will be doing our storyboard and recce places.

Block A - Day 7 - Finalized

Today we finalized quite a few things. We finalized the things that we need to cover or show for our project one. Things like “Scripts, Casting, Locations and etc.”. And finally we have decided on our group / production name! We named ourselves “News6”. Why did we name ourselves as News6? Well simply exercise your brain a little and you’ll know why. HAHA.. But I still have to explain it. Simply because we’re doing a “news” like production as what you see on television and we have a group of 6 people in it, so we decided to use the name “News6”. And partly we got this idea from a particular channel from Mediacorp.

We also finalized our schedule which starts from today till the end of this production. For today, we are suppose to finalist our “schedule, production name and etc.” which we did. Basically we have 4 consultations with lectures almost ones a week till the end of this production. Of-course includes “presentations, filming, editing, extra time just incase we need to reshoot or touchup anything and etc.”. We have also chosen whose works to show under the portfolio section.
