Production reflection
What was the genre you were given?
What did you decide to include in your film that would fit in with the genre conventions?
What programme did you use to complete your task? Any new tools learnt?
How did you distribute the tasks?
What were the biggest obstacles to completing your task? What problems did you encounter and how did you overcome them?
Describe your production, what went well? The successes and the final piece.
What was your initial feedback? What did others say about your production?
Identify what went well and with hindsight what will you do differently in your final production?

Practical tasks
Write a new post reflecting on your practical skills as we'll be doing a lot of these in preparation of your NEAs. Add the label reflection.
1) How did you plan your sequence?
3) How did you assign the roles? Who did what?
4) What did you learn about sound/camerawork?
5) What factors did you have to take into account when planning, shooting and editing?
6) You were asked to film the shots as closely to the original as possible bearing in mind shot size, pace, silences and lengths of shots. How successful was your filming sequence? Please identify what worked well, and with hindsight, what would you improve/do differently?
7) What have you learnt from completing this task? Looking ahead, how will this learning be significant when completing your screenplay/film sequence do you think?
6) What areas of NEA production are your strengths and weaknesses ?
