BVA603 - Week 12



01/10/2019



I collated together a list of emails of the SIT Chief Executive, our Head of Faculty, and local MPs to Britney, so that she can start emailing the VIPS by distance. Britney suggested including Kathryn and other head of department, but I believed it's a given when it comes to Kathryn. I talked to Bex about it and she believed that we should invite as many as we can including Kathryn, all the tutors in our department, as well as other heads of department like Britney suggested. 

 Bex also reminded me about including our sponsors as VIPs for Think & Create, but this will be something that I will have to correspond the sponsorship group about and we also will have to wait until we have our sponsors confirmed.

 Bo has left it to me and Britney to sort out corresponding with the VIPs.

Committee meeting
We had missed out on details in the entry forms. We went solution after solution until I got myself lost what solution the class was committed to or discussing about.

 I had looked at the form yesterday, but I hadn't filled it in or submitted a form for Think & Create because I would need to have a URL link for work that hasn't been completed or has exist yet. I need to talk to Jacqui about this.

 When we talking marketing, Britney mentioned to us that she gone ahead and starting writing the emails for the local MPs and such.

 Questions to keep in mind of answering in your evaluation report - How communication been happening in your team. How have the other groups progressed each week?
This has been good to know since I haven't been evaluating the progress outside of my own group (marketing).

 I went through the student handbook and came with others in SIT that we could invite to the event. Britney was thrilled to know that I have been coming up with names and emails.

 Britney sent me through a draft copy of the email she has collated for our VIPs. I fixed some typos in the draft and sent it back to her through Discord.

 I finally sent Britney the list of more VIP contacts as a Google Docs document and sent a shareable link to her through Discord. It has taken this long because I was afraid that I wouldn't share the document to her in the right way from Google Docs. 

 It seemed to come through fine for Britney and Bex, whom both appreciated it. Britney suggested including the sponsors onto the VIPs contact list, which I was fine with.

BSA731 - Exhibition 2

Image
22/06/2020 'Buffering' Exhibition We forgot about having the exhibition map done and sent to Kathryn last Friday. We will keep that in mind for our next exhibition. I reminded the groups, especially the design team about the sandwich boards at the RAW Gallery that could be used to promote the exhibition There was confusion over submitting prints to be printed for our exhibition. I wasn't sure where to send it to for printing, to Rachel (like the L7 animation students) or James. I did however send the TIFFs of my prints to James just in case. Rachel informed us about placing our prints on foam core, it's a type of foam board that also sticks to the wall. There is a catch though, we have to cut them and stick our print(s) to the foam core ourselves. I gotta say that a print looks better on foam core than on its own. Rachel also warned us to have confidence while cutting the foam core or otherwise the edge will look uneven and rough. This will be quite challenging ...

Digital Video - Lockdown Week 4

Image
15/04/2020 I heard back from James and gave his advice on my concerns, which is that I look for images and footage of the climate strike by school student and use that as B-roll.  B-roll is not always meant to be of a good quality. I may research into potential ethical considerations on consent for using other people's work.  James reckons I will be fine with going ahead with this as long as I focus on what the subject is about and interviews with key players. I could use their work and have interviews in voice-over, however I will consult with the course outline to double check what is required of me to do for my film project. He also reckons my main concern is not being able to film climate strikes, which was only part of the problem. However, the B-roll could still convey drama and urgency depending on its content. I will email James back and ask whether he could call me and we can talk about it properly like I did with Traci.  James is a...

BVA703 Research - Lockdown Week 3

Image
10/04/2020 At midnight brushing my teeth, I suddenly came up with options to capture amongst the crowd stuff to convey urgency of my subject, what if it could achieved with green screen or animation.  Green screen would be a big undertaking and would require each person being filmed individually with a long lens, which would be potentially too consuming on time and resources. A long lens would be necessary to feed into post-COVID-19 health and safety. Animation would require at least one animator depending on the time needed to animate sequences needed. The sequence would ideally be in a sketchy style similar to  Stay Close  or  Dear Basketball .  I would need to think carefully about this since it would need to not disrupt the style and tone of the live-action parts. The animation would need to be in sequences to limit the workload of the animator and I don't want it all animated because that's beyond me and letting animation students ...
