During the planning stages for our advert we had to draw up a production schedule. This would help us to break down each stage of the advert. We was then able to assign tasks to individuals within the group and give then a date of completion for those tasks. By doing this we was able to track when tasks were behind or ahead of schedule. During the script writing stage, we were able to come up with a script, even though it was only one page, it had everything in it that we needed. Throughout our research, we found out that this was possible as the Nytol advert produced by Aardman Studios is also done by using a one page script. Our production was done in a similar way, but on a smaller scale. Our set design was different compared to Nytol's, in the fact that it was smaller, but it was set in a box, like theirs.

19/03/12 - Complete of My Evaluation!!!

Today I've finished my Evaluation, talking about the feedback that I got back for the views of my advert. I thought i wouldn't have finished it today, but I got it done and handed it in. In my opinion its great to do an Evaluation because you can explain what you think of it and the good/ bad points you thought of it, also what can be improved when it comes around in doing it again.....

15/03/12 - Start of Evaluation

Today, I was preparing my evaluation to do with our audience feedback. I only was asked to do the first three paragraphs of our evaluation because I wasn't prepared to finish it because I hadn't finish my audience feedback questionnaires. In order to do that I had to complete them, by going around the college campus or outside of college for people to see our animation advert. This gives us a good chance to see the good and bad views on what people thought of our animation. We had to make it clear by going about our target audience because it was only fair on us, otherwise if we didn't go by this, we would have different comparisons on somebody that doesn't fit our target audience. This has been good because it goes to show that I can give my views about my project on what went bad, as well as my audience feedback, mainly I had to talk about what my audience thought of it as a piece of art.

14/03/12 Part 2

This afternoon my group and I was focusing on our focus group. We managed to get professionals e.g. teachers to watch our 2D animation to get feedback from that, in order for them to do this they filled out a questionnaire. This will help me with my evaluation, getting various feedbacks from various tutors from college. This afternoon I also managed to complete my three paragraphs of my evaluation, which still needs completing.

14/03/12 Part 1

This morning is a tutorial session whereby we either find jobs within the Media industry or we complete work that we haven't yet completed in other lessons. As for me, I am doing both trying to look or find jobs within the Media sector, which nothing catches my full attention. Also, I'm about to start my evaluation, trying to finish my three paragraphs off...

12/03/12

Today I have been very busy with completing my questionnaires towards my focus groups, part as my audience feedback for my evaluation. I have done both 3D & 2D questions. I mainly asked people what they thought about our animations and if they thought their could be some improvement for our animations. Also I have started my evaluation, I was told do start my three paragraphs, since my tutor gave us a handout in what needs to be in out evaluation. Our evaluation needs to cover, only our audience feedback. It has been a hard and stressful day as well as tiring, trying to get it done with getting my three paragraphs making sense.
