This week I continued on writing and finished my research log and my code of practice. This was due in at exactly 8pm by due to multiply internet crashes, I only got to upload the code of practice and save that piece before i lost connection and had to spend an hour typing everything that i had lost, this is due to my laptop as it has something wrong with it where the internet will go and it cant find it for a long time forcing me to restart it constantly and if that wasn't enough the internet became slower some point this week making it longer to load up websites, and struggling play any videos when i was working on my code of practice and needs to be fixed as some point. Another problem i had was trying to split my time between working on the code of practice and working on something that was due in on Friday for ICT, this lead to me spending a lot of the week on ICT and the weekend on media. This was a problem as i was also going out with family that Saturday away all day so i have to do my media work while tethering to my phone so that i could use the internet to research the work. I am not currently sure that my class is doing this week as we spent most if not all our time working on these code of practices and research logs.

This week we finished editing our music video and on Tuesday we uploaded it to YouTube, which means we finished that section of the music video and we still have to finish post production.
I contributed by helping edit scenes together and giving my feedback as to what needed fixing.
There was no problems this week as we didn't actual do much relating to the music video as we finished but i actual received a message on YouTube concerning my older video which was my pitch, as i had used a song that didn't belong to me and did not specify this, YouTube told me that i had third party content which was the lorde song 'royals' which i did use in the video at about 4:00 and that the video of the pitch maybe taken off of YouTube for copyright reasons, i told my teacher and he told me to save a copy of the video in case YouTube removes it so i have the extra to use just in case which i have done already. During Wednesday's lesson we went over all the legal information regarding our videos and we have the task of answering some questions on this in as much detail as possible for the best grade and we have till the 28th to finish this which doesn't seem like a lot of time at all. I have started this and have not gotten far but I have four more lessons to continue this and all the after school time i need so i should be finished.

This week my group was editing again and this happened on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday as we had the deadline on Friday or so we thought but on Thursday we were told that our deadline was extended till Tuesday as some pupils in the class hadn't finished filming for their own reasons so we all got a extension watching through the movie on Wednesday we realized we didn't have enough shots to film the full song so we when out on Friday to film extra shots of Taylor and myself, hopefully we can edit some stuff together and fill in the gap.I contributed by filming and being shot again in the video but those shots may need to be deleted and re filmed as I wasn't wearing the same clothes that day as I was at the beginning. So we may have to film that on Monday. I also created a little animation for the video of which a stamp creates the word lock down on a piece of paper which would fill in for the shot that was the same but with me, the reason we could use this is because back when we filmed the same scene but with me, I messed up and ruined the shot. The only problem we had this week was the huge gap with no shots in it, we ran out of shots on Wednesday forcing us to make more and break some and edit them to look usable. Next week we plan to finish the project on Tuesday, upload it to you tube and start the next project.

This week we finished all our filming which was all the shots involving, the basement. We filmed all the shots on Tuesday afternoon, as of today we have 5 days to finish editing which should be easy.
We also not only had a couple more shots we could add but we got the shots of the CCTV monitor re filmed with me looking the part. I contributed by filming a couple of the shots on Tuesday, editing some shots and also being in the shots for the CCTV monitor. There was again only one problem as we were almost finished filming, we needed to do one more shot and one of the group members didn't want to be seen and as this was the last scene and we had to make do with what we had, though we have lots of scenes we keep finding ourselves with gaps and not enough different shots that look good to use, as we continue to edit, we find ways of making aria seem more crazy as we have shots like her falling to the ground, crawling backwards into a corner, sitting still and rocking slowly, this gives use not only shots but extra shots that help us to add a edge to her that says shes crazy and she needs to be here, the only problem I have is that the basement doesn't really look like asylum room at all as there are pipes and such in the room. Next week we will continue editing and if needed re filmed.

Weekly production Log 6 (02.03.2014)
This week was our last week to film during lesson times so when we told we have to film after school or at lunch/break. This leaves us with 12 days as of the 2nd, our final deadline is Friday 14th of march 2014.
We also decided as a group to ask to film in the basement instead of anywhere else as it looked scary and empty, this week we filmed the CCTV videos which was pretty good, This week i contributed by actually being in the video playing the Security man watching Taylor (aria) as she when crazy then falling a sleep at the post allowing here to escape. There was only one problem this week as one of the group members didn't turn up to our filming time after school and when confronted they said that they had a dentist appointment which was annoying as this set us back a bit more we chose not to film as we wanted to film as a group and it wouldn't work with out that person , we plan to film the scenes involving aria in the actual room on Tuesday as everyone is free that day. During our actual lessons we plan to watch what we have filmed, choose what scene we filmed was the best, and start editing the music video so it looks good. We still have film shots 1a - 1c, 6a, 7a -9a, 10a, 10c -12b, 25a- 25b, 27a -29a, 31a, 33a - 34b, 35b, 37a and 45a.
