Research - Oliver
My section of the research was about the the exhibitions. It
was difficult as the only information available was on the art
gallery website so it was difficult to pull research from any
other sources. However, there was a really good amount of
information on the gallery website so it was not the end of the
world
I also did all the research into documentary post production.
This meant I researched editing, sound design, colour grading
and soundtrack creation. I looked at good examples of each
process and how they achieved it successfully.
I feel as if the research was done really well because as a
team we covered every base in a lot of detail, ranging from
the artist and the painting to directing and animation

Also for my research I did primary and secondary audience research. I
looked at statistics for different social media platforms to see which platforms
would be best to advertise our event on to reach our target audience. I also
looked at statistics for students on creative media and arts courses in the UK
and the local area so that I had a rough idea on numbers of people that
would be interested in our event possibly. We also did a survey asking
people if they’d come to the type of event we were planning and what they
would like to see at that sort of event and how they would like to have things
presented I felt this help a lot and gave us a good idea about what to make
for our target audience.
Pre-Production
• My Pre-Production is all over the place as we
didn’t have long to actually create the script and
plan the video due to time restrictions from the
client. I feel like it could have been done better but
I worked really well for what we needed to do. With
more time I would have included story boards and
an editing breakdown to make it easier when it
came to compiling the footage. The script
breakdown was very useful on the day of shooting
as it helped.
• We also conducted production experiments for the
interviews. This helped with the visualisation of the
interviews and how it would look in the edit.
Production - Jack’s Welcome Video
I was pleased with how my video come out I felt it worked well
and achieved its goals. When it came to filming we had
everything filmed in good time and ready to start editing this
video. I felt editing went smoothly and I knew I would have
everything finished in time. There were a few shots I would
have changed or reshot if possible but besides that I was very
please with the outcome of this video.

Production - Shooting - Oliver
Overall I think the documentary turned out really nicely and so did
the attendees with one of them stating that they loved the video.
There were defiantly thinks that could have been worked on but
overall it looked and peeled professional.
With the help of the shooting script and the skill of the team, filming
the documentary was pretty easy. We both had a lot of shots to get
but we weren't there for too long. It took half the amount of time to
shoot which was nice
We used the gimbal to get the steady moving shots and the shoulder
mounts to get the close up shots. I pre-set up the gimbal the night
before and photographed the axis measurements as it meant that in
the gallery the set-up only took 5 mins meaning we could get started
right away.
There were some shots that were difficult to get due the the lighting
in the gallery being awful, the wall colour being a sort of burgundy
red that bleed into the shots and the restriction on using proper lights
as they would damage the paintings
Production - Shooting - Adam
•Working on the camera for the documentary video I had to follow a lot of
instructions as Ollie wanted a specific set of shots to be filmed so we met
up and went around the gallery filming the paintings and each other
filming so that we could document the production. I’m really happy with
how the documentary turned out, I think that all the shots look fairly
professional and the lighting is actually ok even though we only had the
lighting in the gallery to work with.
•I actually did the voice over for the documentary video which was
interesting/frustrating to make because I had to memorise most of the
lines so that I could read out the script in a natural way but I got better at it
as I went on as I was getting into a rhythm of speaking. I think that the
documentary video was really good and if I could improve it I would’ve had
subtitles in the video so that people at the event wouldn't need
headphones in order to know what the documentary was about.
Production - Music
For all the videos except the entrance video I created original music to accompany
the videos. I did this using GarageBand.
For the promo video i used a range of trap kits to get individual drum sounds. They
sounded really good together as they were from the same pack from Splice. I also
used GarageBand loops for the stringed instruments that i pitched down and cut up
For the event video I used a LoFi melody from another sample pack from Splice. I
paired this with a soundscape from from Ethereal that was in the same key. This
combination created a great layered lofi sound that matched the tone of the event
and video. For the drums i used a LoFi one shot pack i found on r/drumkits. It had
loads of bass and snare sounds and really good percussion sounds. However the
HiHat sounds were very poor, i ended up using an EQ’d trap hat to emulate the
same sort of sound.
For the interviews and the documentary I used a collection of string instrument,
piano sounds and a 80s style synth all layered playing a melody composed by a
producer by the name of Praxi, I worked with those melodies and creating the
drums to with it, I used one of the GarageBand presets to create the drums as they
sounded so much better compared to the Splice kits.
I feel like all the music came out sounding really well and matched the videos well
too
Production - Editing
I was also tasked with editing the documentary as well. This was a fun
job as i enjoy editing and working in post-production.
We had so much footage that was all unorganised behind belief it was
a nightmare to find the shots I needed. For the next project i will use a
proper system. It was very difficult to find anything as there was just
stuff everywhere
The footage we got didn't need much work to it which was good and
saved a lot of time. It didn't take long to arrange a good enough rough
cut to be sent out for notes. With notes from the team and the Art
Gallery i finished the documentary a few days before the event which
gave me time to focus on other things
The graphics were really easy to implement as Theo from YMT and
Will had cut up all the pictures in photoshop really nicely so creating
the fading was super simple
The voice over was a bit messed up as they were so quiet i had to
boost the sound and then nest the audio and boost again a few times.
It didn't effect the quality that much but was just a pain as we had
recorded it in many sections
The text was pretty easy to do as i had created a photoshop template
to make it easy to create all the different text assets I needed

Production - the night - Adam
Production - Event Video Editing
I was given the job of editing all the footage together from the event. This was a pretty difficult job as there was 6
hours worth of footage and no real story to the video.
It was made worse by the fact that the camera settings weren't properly dialled in before shooting. One camera was
very dark, one had the white balance off so all the footage was orange and the other camera was out of focus for a lot
of the shots
However, from all the usable footage I got something good out of it, i think it turned out really well. It flowed nicely and
really fit the overall tone of the event

The Night by Will Anderson
The Night
My job was to man the Photo Booth all night, it was fun. I was just taking photos of people in costumes so it
wasn't too tiring or boring. I also had to give a speech which went horribly as i was told about it 10 minuets
before doing it.
The overall event was a success in my opinion. We had a great turn out and everyone said they enjoyed it.
