ONW Procedures

What was the concept that our group identified for the assignment?

Our group was required to have an idea for an educational video on how to do something at ONW. The concept my group decided on was how to check out a book. Later on, we also included how to return a book.

What was the process?

After we decided on the video we were going to make, we began storyboarding. On a large piece of paper; we put beginning, middle, and end. In the beginning, we wrote that the student would grab a pass to go to the library. In the middle, the student checks out a book. In the end, a different student returns their book. After we wrote what would happen, we planned the camera shots. That was the storyboarding process. Next, my group recorded the footage which was unfortunately on a day I was gone. Then, each person edited their own video with the footage.

What was my role in the process and what did I learn?

I was the director so my group relied on me to make decisions and communicate our ideas with the teacher during storyboarding. I learned that I do not like being a director.

What would I do differently? Why?

I was kind of an indecisive director so I would've liked to have been more decisive. I also wish I could've been there for filming so I could've helped my group.

What would I do the same? Why?

For the most part, I liked my editing. I think it flows nicely from scene to scene and it gets the message across.

What experiences will I draw from to enhance my next project?

I'm improving in my editing which is something I'll need to do to enhance future projects.
