Christopher Sziranyi - My Contributions So Far

Throughout the past 4 months a lot of work has been done and we are now at the point where we can begin recording. I have been a huge motivational factor to the success of the team and have always been there to sort out any technical difficulties the group may encounter.
One of the more important tasks that I have completed so far has been the creation of a questionnaire on surveymonkey asking our potential audience about the song we have chosen. I had to make sure the questions I asked encouraged people to answer in a more detailed way and therefore I did not include many multiple choice questions as these are less useful when finding out qualitative information. I received some minor help from my team in deciding which questions are most suitable.
I then waited until we received a suitable number of survey completions before I analysed the results. This encompassed gathering all of the answers that were given to each question and document it in a general form mentioning any key points that were stated. An example of this could be shown on the question "What kind of elements do you think would relate to the lyrics", as one of the better answers was to show the progression of a person's life from poverty to success. We ended up using this idea.
Finally, I filmed one of the 3 production meetings in which we discuss what we have done so far.
The biggest tasks however, still lies ahead of me as I will be editing the majority if not all of the music video. This will be done on Sony Vegas 10, CINEMA 4D, Adobe After Effects, and Photoshop. A combination of these should ensure a professional looking final cut.

Tyrone Francis-My contribution so far

So far in this project I have put forward many ideas on the production which we are to produce. I came up with ideas for the location and some of the events which are to take place during the video. In terms of production work I have created a story board for the production using http://www.pixton.com/. I did this to ensure that a variety of different medias were used to give the production work more variety. I also included information on the equippment and editing software to be used to produce this music video. The treatment of the music video was also completed by myself. Other tasks which I have completed include assisting Christopher Sziranyi with the questionnaire and reasearch of the target audience as well as recording the 3rd production meeting for the group, keeping the blog up to date with any changes which we have made since the beginning of the production.

Today we talked about the changes with the hobo design and the changes in location that we have made, also we spoke about how we used the questionnaire to gather information and also how we have used pixton to create our storyboard online.
