Episode 1 2013

The first episode is all scripted, the anchors have their scripts at home and are practising, practising and practising. Most of the stories are filmed and uploaded to imovie.
These are some of the things that have gone really well over the last 2 weeks:

  • We had a fantastic team of editors working through last Friday on it Georgia N, Emma and Emily.
  • Our expert camera teams worked super-efficiently to film our stories.
  • Presenters and reporters were totally prepared they knew exactly what they wanted to say and how they wanted to say it. 
  • The crew are getting into the habit of putting the cameras on charge as soon as they come back to the studio, and of immediately uploading and deleting footage off the cameras.
  • The crew are trying to move around the school quietly so they make the least disruption to classes and get the filming done efficiently.
  • Everyone works really well together.
  • Everyone chipped in to help match the anchor scripts and the story scripts for episode 1.
  • More experienced crew are helping the less experienced gain skills in producing stories and editing.
  • Crew are leaving the studio tidy and organised.
  • Crew are problem-solving effectively to create the show they want to present.
  • Crew are motivated and independent when working on stories.
  • Everyone is managing their own behaviour extremely well- even when things get frustrating or scary or don't work or we have to re-shoot!
I am super impressed with the effort everyone is making so far. I am looking forward to filming the anchor segment this Friday. 
  • Anchors- (Finn and Samuel) please remember to wear any colour clothing but green this Friday, as we will shoot in front of a green screen for the first time. 
  • Anchors: Whaea Tia, Mr Pesefea and Sally all have copies of your script in their google drive.
  • Crew: Ryan on the camera, Chantelle directing and Weston assistant.
Well done! Caroline.
