Production log 3

What progress did you make since your previous entry?

This week was all about filming for our idents, We started the production of our idents with the 3D animation which we could get done relatively quickly as we only needed to record 5 shots. We was also able to film our stop motion animation and finish the production of our idents by the end of the week. This meant that we could stay on schedule and allow as much time as possible for our post production and editing as we knew that would take the most time. 

What logistical challenges did you face and how did you overcome them?

In terms of logistics we did need to use some locations around school that we had to check first to see if they was in use or not. We needed to use the Withdrawal room and we needed to use an examination room, so we needed to make sure we asked before hand a time that we could use the rooms. However we was bale to use them within the days we wanted to film which meant that we did stay on track with the production schedule.

What technical challenges did you face this week and how did you overcome them?

There was not many technical problems that we faced during the production of our idents. We did have to do a few takes on the stop motion animation but as the camera we used had a burst picture setting we could quickly over come the continuity problem. 

What targets do you aim to achieve before your next entry?

For the next week it is all about editing and animating, there is a lot to do as we need to edit, animate the 2D ident and animate our 3D logo. We know that the 3D animation will take the longest time as we dont have a lot of experience with the software but thats why we have allowed a lot of time for this stage in the idents production.
