Idea
The main role that I played in this stage of my piece was the idea creator meaning that I had to come up with three main ideas form my mind that I could create into a multi camera shoot or recreate a show resisting from main stream tv. By doing this I was trying to achieve a 3 main ideas layout whilst reading an idea it helps me think up ideas and inspirations for my piece helping me build my ideas and form them into something that I could create.This implies that if I bulk put my ideas it would help me develop and improve my piece because whilst I am planning put my main ideas my brain is creating ideas and thinking up new ways to present and show my ideas , which Is what was going through my mind whilst I was creating my ideas. All I was doing was creating ways to show my vision and idea. As well as I used that time to plan out other assets of my piece such as graphics and sound which helped massively develop and plan out each of my ideas.I justified that action by thinking that I was going to make one of these ideas eventually so if I started to create my ideas and planning out when I would do something to stay ahead and make sure that I would meet the deadlines.The main broad issues is that even though I was developing three big ideas at the same time as well as planning all of the out it.But the thing is that I would only be able to develop one of the ideas so the time that I was putting on the other ideas would be wasted but the criteria call ed for three ideas so I had to create and flesh out three main ideas.All I could do to make things better was to decide early which Idea I wanted to do and make sure that I was putting more time into that idea and make sure that whilst I was creating the other ideas I was using similar basic perimeters so that one idea was helming all three.
I looked into multi camera shoots and saw that realistically I had two options on what to do a game show and a chat show I decided to go with a chat show so I deiced to come up with several topics to talk about first was Marvel which is the idea I went with as well as another idea was a chat show covering gaming news in the world of esports which would have been a good topic at the time because of the recent departure of 100 Thieves and Optic gaming from competitive Call of Duty as well as Optic stump announcing he is retiring from competitive Call of Duty for the foreseeable future.My last idea was a chat show covering new film releases in general instead of covering one specific topic like I did with the Marvel Idea. I was happy with my idea and the construction of my idea and how the end product came out like.As well as if I had to choose another then I would have chosen the general film topic idea because the gaming show was good but only interesting and relevant for a small period which is a shame because it is one of my major interests.I believe that they are very good ideas and if I had to choose another despite how relevant they are I would choose the Esports idea because I believe that I would be better due to the fact is has a focus and I could drive a good convocation about it and drive a good conversation never the less I believe out of the three the idea I went with was the best.
Planning
My main role in the planning was the planner which entailed that I had thought my idea through. The main things that I do is I had to create a series of planning documents e.g. recce risk assessment and many other planning documents as well as I created a treatment which was my there to help develop my idea and it was there to help me think through every thing that I would need and plan for it. Also I had to create a time plan meaning that al of my idea was palled and I knew what I was doing and what day I would do it on.By doing all of that all I was trying to achieve was the fact that I should have a fully planned Idea and so that when it came to production I would know what I am doing when Im doing it and how to do it. These documents tell me how to produce my shoot and where very thing needs to go as well as it tells me when I am filming and and what I am filming on that day which is very useful. These teach me how to properly plan and set deadlines for my self so that I could help myself stay on track and meet the dead lines which is very important to me. When I was writing these documents the main thing going through my head is the fact that they needed to be simple because I wanted to just looked at them and understand what is happening as well as I wanted them to be precise so if something was unclear then I could not get as good of a piece as if it was precise. The new aspects are that my paper work has been refined and is now understandable and efficient. So now ehe ever I write out my planning documents I now know how to do them properly.The main broad issue was that they were not as clear and I did not go into as much detail as I wanted to.If I wanted to make it better I would go into more detail on the dangers and I would plan out my time schedule more e accurately and force my self to stick to It. I would do the same thing over again if I could because I belie that my paperwork is better than I ever has been despite the lower amount of detail.The only thing I could to solve the simple problem is add more detail on what the hazards that I have identified.
I believe that my planning was superior to all research for each project prior due to how much research I did and In my opinion It was all relevant and it either helped me plan and produce my piece or it would explain aspects of my work such as how I produced my opining sequence and the inspiration behind it as well as in some cases the creation of how I made what ever it is I am talking about all of this effective research I copied over or applied it to my planning and they helped me tremendously because I had effective research which meant when it came to filling out my planning and production documents I had a simple time and they were quick to fill out because I had explored most of the possibility in my research page all I had to do was copy them across and relate them to what I was talking about as well as I had written out a treatment which was a base overview and covering certain topics such as what I was gonna talk about and others.This was very helpful and effective because It helped know what I was going to talk about as well as what things I wanted to so that I could refer back to them if needed or it would be something to write about in the evaluation.These were all very helpful because it is very simple and effective to learn and understand meaning that when I was planing I had a. good idea of what I was doing how I was going to do it and when wanted to do that thing which made the entire process easier as well as if I was to ever do this a can I would refer back to this to see how and I did it and replicate those pieces of work.I would use these methods ideas and ways of filling out paper work again when it comes to another project.
These are the comparisons in my paper work
1. My paper work from level 2 (2 and a half years ago)
Even though i am outlining the issue i believe that i could have done it better due to the fact that i left things to be too vague and do my maths in the L S R part meaning that i underestimated the risks.
2. This is my paperwork at the end of this project
Firstly i have given a lot more detail into what the issue is and in my first work the hazard reference is very vague and dose not out line the issue and i know that mine is not as good as it could be and i could give more detail but i think that it is better than just repeating the issue again. And in the case of how risky the task that i am describing is i believe that i seriously underestimated the risk by doing my maths incorrectly meaning that because of this serious mistake someone could of been hurt because i underestimated the risks at hand where as know i am understanding the risks a lot better meaning that the risk is reduced.
This a shot of my first recce that i filled out and despite the fact that in my new paper work i should have an image despite that i believe that my new work is better because in my work instead of having a tick box it makes you explain the answer to the question that it is asking me.
Production
My main role in my production is directing and the man thing that I wanted to focus on was camera and I was trying to achieve a authentic style of tv and talk shows.This production taught me how hard doing an authentic style of tv with the graphics and camera.Directing has also taught me how to direct and run an efficient multi camera shoot which Is an important skill which I will use later on in other projects.When I was directing I was mainly thinking about my performance as well as what the content was going to tun out like such as the quality and context of what they are talking about.I had these thoughts because when I was acting I saw all of the cameras in the right positions as well as the lighting was perfect but I was not sure that the topics were good enough to show and present to others but from looking at the edit my understanding of this video was good because I saw that the content was good and it was clean into new convocations.The main broad issue after looking in the edit was on one shot the video was a lot greener which needed somer colour correction. If I wanted to fix the things that looked incorrect in my piece I would add a correction / adjustment layer which makes things look more appropriate it would also fix some of the issue when filming.After doing those small issues with that slight green problem on my close up of Alex camera I believe that I have a very good piece which look and feel authentic which Is very good as well as there is another small issue which is very fixable unfortunately I ran out of time to do so due to the Macs and pcs not being able to download content of youtube so my opening sequence has no music/ audio which is an issue but nether the less I a very happy with my piece.
In my research i looked at several different chat shows and i looked at there characteristics and assets with in the show as well as i looked at other things such as the number of cameras and where those cameras are pointing. Such as my main inspiration which was a YouTube review about an animated series made my IGN. Through out production i used the same type of camera angle and amount of cameras to gain the same feeling and tone of the show such as i used three cameras one for each talker which is two cameras both using close ups on the talkers showing there reactions to things that are said as well as the last camera was used in my research source to give an establishing shot and to show of the set and graphics so i saw they did this well so i decided to recreate this in my piece by having my third camera as an establishing shot so i could include graphics in post. Also i believe that my piece went well and it was efficient with the whole process including set up and filming. I believed that I managed to get all of the equipment set up and in position with in twenty minutes because I had a good team which I managed to direct and position quickly and they responded and reacted quickly and properly which I am grateful for because it made the process and experience a lot better. This was one of the things that I learnt from this and one of the main things that I will take away from this and use again if I ever do another multi camera shoot.Another thing that I could use in generally in all projects which I learnt from this is how to efficiently manage my time when planning projects because in my project I have managed to gather my ideas and thoughts , plan the one that I chose to do as well as produce and create a full edit with full paper work and blogger in a small amount of time and I believe that this is due to my effective planning and time management which is a very good and transferable skill to other future projects.As well as there was a small problem towards the end of the project where after exporting i saw that i had no music for my opening so that it was completely silent i tried to set this straight but was not able to download the music that i wanted download to the sights were you would download music being unavailable. which is unfortunate but
Research
In my research I was the main researcher meaning that I looked into all of my main inspirations to gather content and characteristic to gather information on how they are produced and broke it down and used there components to influence and improve my own piece.Such as camera I was trying to map out positions o certain cameras and there movement so that I could gather how they were being sterilised. By doing this I was trying to achieve the feeling of other pieces of work and use that to improve the content in my piece. I used the things that I learnt from studying these pieces and applied those to my planning and production. The actions I took entailed me deciding on how to act on this information because I mentally downloaded the information and used it to decide where I was going position the cameras. I did this to achieve the aesthetics and feeling of the other shows to make mine feel authentic.And by the response I have received form others I believe that I have achieved that. The consequences of this were that in my opinion my piece felt way to static and had no movement meaning it became un-engaging which felt disappointing and upsetting to me but fortunately I added graphics in the edit as well as cut away meaning that It was more engaging.There was a lot of good in my research because it had shown me how to use the camera in multi camera as well as it showed me the positioning of the cameras which helped me tremendously.This employs that I have not looked enough into how the cameras where utilised such as how they were used through movement meaning that the visuals are more interesting and engaging.when I acted on this all that was going through my mind was that I had to make my piece more interesting to watch so I decided to act on this by adding graphics. I based these actions on what I was looking at in my research and how they keep there audience engaged. From this my new understanding is that I should use tracking and pan shots more to make my piece more interesting.To make things better all I need to do is to add cut aways as well as using colour grading to make my piece more interesting and appropriate for its purpose.All I have to do is make sure that my piece is more appropriate and has the same feeling and tone as a professionally made program.
In my research i planned out three main ideas based around different talk show ideas and the one i put into motion was a talk show based around marvel and the cinematic universe that they have spent a decade developing and building a large fan base around. I looked at several other videos that i found relevant such as popular talk shows such as Graham Norton an well as i looked at an IGN review which was my main review and i believe that these channels of research were very effective for two reasons. First they help me establish what they should look like how many cameras there were and how often you should switch between the cameras which was very helpful when it came to production and planning because i then knew how much equipment i needed where to position the equipment as well as especially when it came to editing i knew when to cut to a camera and this taught me how to spot interesting and captivating things to cut to. This is definitely something i will do in the future for any other projects. Learning how to use spot captivating pieces in an edit is every useful and looking how and where to position the cameras was invaluable to know and it helped me out a lot. Secondly they helped me out a lot with how to identify my target audience which was very helpful because the way these films are advertised they make it out like they have a large and diverse audience which if true it is very hard to pin point a specific target audience that I want to appeal to but these videos have helped me narrow that down and because I chose a topic with a large audience it made it easier because it appeals to everyone I could just pick an audience and get away with it.
These skills that I have used and learnt from this are very useful and transferable to other projects in the future which is good and handy now that I know them.As well as In my research I gathered information by doing interviews questionnaires and I gathered information from a member of redit who had compiled a survey and posted it. The post was about the audience of marvel both films and comics which was very helpful because it helped my justify and make my target audience valid.All of these points ahem helped me immensely and I will make sure to use these techniques in future projects because these help me identify a correct and valid pieces if research to identify my target audience.

This Is the peer feedback that I received
The sections In my other pages that are not suggested fro improvement I have been told in there opinion need no improvement.
The main improvements are that I should move a lot of my content on these pages around as well as move content of certain pages and put it on others as well as I should In some cases suggest what I learnt form this process.This information was very helpful and useful because it helps me know where things belong and what I should add to certain pages in certain places.
I have also made a choice to go through and copy and paste the information that was suggested to be there and I have kept it on both pages ( my research page as well as the recommended page )
