Milestones

So far our group has made some great progress on finishing our project. I would say that two big milestones that we have accomplished would be, that we finished our script/storyboard and the other milestone would be that we have basically finished filming. We have one more scene to shoot and as long as the video we have already shot looks good then we are pretty much done with that aspect of the project. We also still have to make our screencast and do our voiceover work as well. I would say two big hurdles we may encounter would be, trying to make everyone’s writing of the paper come together into one flowing cohesive paper, and I would also say that editing the video to make all of our shots look professionally done might also be somewhat of a challenge.

With all of this being said I don’t see us having much trouble getting by these hurdles because our team is very talented and we work well together. A couple people in our team have expressed how good they are with editing using audacity and other programs that we have learned in class. We can easily use the screencast tool that we were shown in class to add another element to our video that will help us further describe the mock interview process. We can then use the video editing software to drowned out the real sound and insert our voice overs. When filming we also used the filming techniques we were taught by filming the same scene from multiple angles. This will give us some options when editing as far as choosing the best footage for a certain scene. This will also make our video seem more professional and help the viewer more easily understand the point we are trying to get across. With our teamwork, the tools we were given in class, and the techniques we were taught there is no doubt in my mind we will have a great project.
