Portfolio Project Schedule

Schedule Time!

    Hello again! Immediately when this project was assigned I knew I would need to make a plan in order to keep my partner and I in check. To complete this, I see a timeline as the best fit as having everything planned out to dates is perfect. It is extremely important to complete this first in order to not fall behind

Breakdown

To begin with, I need to break down the project into its major components.

1. Initial Research

• Research and analyze film opening sequences in my selected genre.
• Research and analyze film credit sequences in my selected genre.

2. Planning

• Create the idea for my project.
• Create a script.
• Create a storyboard.
• Find actors and people to work with.
• Find location and times for filming.

3. Production

• Film scenes.
• Record any foley or voice-overs that we need.

4. Editing 

• Edit all our footage.
• Create title and credits.
• Re-record any scenes, foley, or voice-overs that are needed.

5. Revisions

• Review the video with a partner.
• Show the video to family members for advice.
• Take any advice received and re-edit or film any parts of the project.

6. Critical Creative Reflection

• Research information needed in the reflection.
• Create the reflection.
• Edit and review the reflection.

I have around 2 months to complete this project. I want to stay on track with my timeline and hopefully end a week before the due date in case of any delays and additions that might be necessary.
