Wee Willie Winkie Video Project

    Dring this course, Video Production 1, we had been given a variety of assignments; however there was a lengthy one that was assigned to us. Our teacher assigned everyone in the class to come up withconsiders concept from a nursery rhyme and then to make that concept a student made movie, and then later the class will come up with their favorite concepts for the movie. From the favorites chosen, the teachers chose four groups to go with along with teams for each one of them. The group that I was assigned to was Nathan. Nathan's movie concept steamed off from the original nursery rhyme Wee Willie Winkie. In Nathan's pitch there was going to be a cast of three people; a mom and her two children. As time went by, our group held production meetings. We made a finalized script within a couple of weeks, we picked out our actors, and then finally we picked a location. During this process we faced a lot of issues with meeting. Evryone in our group faced busy/hectic schedules, and therefore we hardly were ale to plan time to shoot our movie. Two shooting days were canceled because other things got in the way of people comings to shoots. Only one person in our group had an excusable reason for not being there, and that was due to him getting married. As time was drawing near the deadline for the project our group had yet to establish any shots, yet set time for a shooting date.
     As time went on my partner and I were the only ones putting in anytime to our project. We even had to go to our teacher and ask for an extension. For this I felt horrible, but I knew that after aking to an extension that my group had to get their shit together! From that moment on my partner and I sat back down and went back to the drawing board. We ended up splitting all the designated jobs for the assignments between us two, we set a shoot date, and we were able to shoot in one day, and edit all in one day. It was a hectic process, but the end product made us very thankful that we were persistent in getting things done.
