Reflection: The weekly progress really helps me in journaling the progress of my project where by this I can see what is my task list and what should be done. Moreover, by mentioning my problem every week really helps me to reflect on why that problem occurs and how to solve the problem and with this I am more ready and swift to solve the problem or prevent these problems from happening again in the future.

Week 1

In this week we were being brief on the music video project and we do some smalls research on music video and we were asked to analyse about what do you like about the music video.

Week 2

In this week we were discussing about what Social Issues can we put into music video and discussing about an artist brand image. I continued on my Big research even deeper to really understand how to visualise lyrics into picture so we can apply it for our project

Week 3 

- Analysed another artist in terms of branding

To-do: Storyboard, Finalise stage name, scouting places, finalise storyline

Week 6


Problems: One of our member sick so my partner can't express their idea and we can't share our discussion to him as I'm afraid if he's not in the same boat with me and the rest of the team member where my partner who is sick should try to catch up with our discussion

This week we begin the project session after 1 month school break. We changed our blog theme as the Cambridge suggest us to. We also do some risk assessment and location assessment where we list the description of the location, pros and cons, and potential risk. I also receive some feedback from my teacher regarding the blog. We also contacted our actors in other to let us know on which day they are available and free

Problem: We need to figure out solution if there is rain and very hot temperature during the production day as our location relies heavily on weather

Solution: I scouted the location and we also discuss another alternative such as finishing other things jsut in case everything goes wrong

- Start doing some photoshoot

Week 4

In this week we manage to finish another shots and we also started to do our self reflection

Reflection:
The progress of our Compenent 3 project in general remained stable, and we were able to keep all our tasks on track and keep on schedule even there are some aspect that we delay because certain external effect. Overall, despite the problems that we faced throughout the shooting process, I am proud that as a team we were able to rise above them and find the solutions to those problems using our own innovations and plans. This helped us stay ahead of ourselves and not fall behind schedule, despite the pressures that may have led us into doing so. This progress report to me has been useful in outlining each week the problems we encountered, what we should do, as well as keeping an organized list of things to finish as soon as possible, which has helped me keep myself, as well as my teammates organized.
