TIME MANAGEMENT:
To begin with we didn't have any real planned time where we were to go out and film, as a result our time management to start was weak. For example - when our research and planning work had been accomplished, we wasn't taking the filming as seriously as what we should have done and therefore when it came down to it we were rushing trying to reach our deadline.

It was only when we realised how quick time was going that we sat down and made a plan about what days and what times the group as a whole were available to film - this was successful as we were able to meet our deadline with a good piece of finished work.

We spent many lessons and free time concentrating on the credits for the titles rather than actually getting the filming for our sequence finished. This is an additional example as to how our time keeping wasn't very good to begin with, however once the credits were completed we were happy with the result and this therefore meant we were able to put all of our focus into the filming.

Luckily for our group we had half term a week before our project needed to be in. This was a helpful thing for our group as it meant we could spend a lot of time putting the finished sequence together. When we returned to school after half term, the last week meant editing – and a lot of it! I and my group member Danielle spent a lot of free lessons on Final Cut editing the final sequence.

Overall, I think throughout the task our time management progressed, this was after we realised how little time we had left and how much work we had to do. But after we recognised this we were able to control our time efficiently and consequently reach all of the deadlines required.
