DOCUMENTARY REFLECTION



Now that you are finished with your documentary, reflect on what you have learned. Answer the following questions in a well thought out paragraph.

1. What have you learned in the documentary assignment? List three different things that you have learned and what you learned.
2. What has this assignment taught you about video production?
3. Was this assignment a good final project of the year? Why or why not? What did it teach you to improve you production skills?
4. What mistakes did you make on the project? How could you avoid them next time?

Three things I've learned in this documentary assignment is that planning, communication skills between the client and group members, and professionalism is essential. Planning is essential because without good planning, the client will not be prepared for things we need from them. Communication skills are important because you have to get to know your client before you start shooting questions at them. Making them comfortable helps get better answers out of them. Professionalism is essential because it brings out the organization and communication skills out. It is the core of all the other essentials in my opinion. I think it was a pretty good final project because it is cumulative. It involved a lot of previous units and made us go back to think about how we can use our knowledge to make our project turn out great. Our group's weakness was communication and planning. Without communication, we were unable to plan out what we needed to complete. There were a few misunderstandings that led to some missing shots and incomplete assignments.
