Studio Production: Finished Website


This is a screenshot of the Teaser video on the finished website.
There is the vines, all four of them, one for each of the topics, these are short videos of 8 seconds which introduce each topic with footage, not used in the VT's or the show.
The behind the scenes video is on there which is 5 minutes long which has an interview with Helen, Sophie and the directors of the show mixed in which appropriate footage, this is under the about us page as a sub-page.
The trailer is on its own page and the teaser is a sub-page with that as they are similar things. There are pictures of the set and everyone that worked on the show on the website so it now has everything.

Commissions Unit: Graphics

Graphics
I could not have done these myself so I asked Chris if he could do them for me as I didn’t have after effects and it would take ages for me to create them, he was more than happy to help. I supplied to his details of what I wanted and gavehim the logos, names etc. and he did these very quickly and not only I loved them but Kelly was really happy with them and thanked Chris, the graphics included the lower thirds for all interviewed and the logos on the interviews, and the effect on the newspapers.

Lower Thirds:




Newspaper effect: this was done on all 6 newspapers in the film

The Logo on the interviews, Making Miracles for Kellty, Ranjit and Marion


Summer Dreams logo on all the mothers with a story to tell, so Hayley, Rebecca, Katie and Eva
I can't thank Chris enough for doing these of me, these I feel help make my film the best one yet.

Commissions Unit: Finished Video



This is the Final version of the Charity video for Making Miracles Charity, after so many videos being exported this is the final version given to Kelly for publicity on Saturday 11th at the Spring ball where the video was aired for the first time.
Although this is 4 weeks before my deadline for this video it was finished on time for Kelly and did its job as everyone loved the video and it did its purpose to make people aware and support the charity, I am proud to have helped and to create this video, with a big help and thank you to Chris for helping me out and doing the graphics for me.

Commissions Unit: Editing

When producing a video by yourself you have to do pretty much everything, I filmed everything so it is now time to edit it. This is not easy as I personally don't know what Kelly wanted to have in the video as my plan was a short under 5 minute video about what the charity has done in the last year. I wait for Kelly so we could create a sync assembly from the interviews to create a basic story, when I put everything in the time line it was over 30 minutes and that was from a transcript Kelly gave me.

We started cutting up interviews together as its a video for her and she knows the charity and what needs to be in to promote the video and therefore the charity.

We started editing together on Monday 30th March and constantly for 2 weeks till the Saturday 11th April of the Spring ball, we met up nearly everyday until the sync assembly was done, which took Kelly about 4 days to be roofless and cut it down to 10 minutes long but this was a struggle and I had to cut some out too. As soon as the interviews were done I could then do most of the editing by myself as it was just adding the pictures and videos, Kelly didn't quite understand that we needed to cover up all the cuts and the image jumps so I took over this and i showed her every couple of days how it was going and with 5 days to go I had to give Chris the graphic details and images so they would get done.
Once the graphics were done and put in the video started to shape up quickly and Kelly loved them and was happy with the video even at its rough stage, I worked really hard and spent a lot of time on the edit and going to meet Kelly to show her how it was going.

I finished the video the day before the Spring ball and Chris had to do the final touches before exporting it and giving Kelly the DVD on Saturday 11th this was a big relief as this was my life through easter but i am proud of this video and what i have done for Kelly and her Charity.

Commissions Unit: Video


This is the finished video that I gave to Kelly to show at the ball but when we watched it there was a slight mistake, one of the mothers names was missing when we exported it so we had to quickly change it before having this as the final version.

Studio Production: Credits



These I created as no-one was sure whose job it was and I had some sparer time so I offered as people in my team was busy with their own projects, Helen gave me the list of everyones names and their roles as I didn't know everyone that was helping in the show, this didn't take me ages and I couldn't remember how to blur so I asked Vic.
This was my second attempt as the first one I missed off the CAFT team as no-on gave me their names until the day of the show so they wasn't on the live show but this version the problem has been fixed and will be on the final submitted version.
