Monday 10th May –Friday 14th May

Monday 10th May
Rich tested the camera as we were going to do behind the scenes footage with the camera operators for Reverb. I was also a cable basher as I had help move the camera around. Also some of the group had filmed the production meetings. We also interviewed the camera crew who were Seb Shaw, Matt Tomas and Jon Burgress.

Tuesday 11th May
One of the lecturers had checked our footage and had to give us feedback on what would need improving. Phil had given us feedback on what we needed to improve on including the camera shots. Had a group meeting in the ALS room to discuss what separate units we would go in for filming, I wrote down the meeting in minutes of what was being discussed as I am the Production assistant, and learnt the two separate units we would be in, I would be in a group with Matt and Rich, while James and Dan were in another group. Earlier Phil had given the group feedback .Also wrote down interview questions.

Wednesday 12th May
I typed the interviews questions that I wrote down yesterday and showed them to the rest of my group with other questions I should put in. Then I re typed the questions, which James would ask the HNDs and the lecturers involved in the Reverb documentary

Thursday 13th May
We set up interviews in the television studio, which would include the use of the Redhead lights and the studio camera as this would show the expertise involved.
We interviewed the series editor Dave Reid and the executive producer Sophy Blount as they play a big role in the production of Reverb. Apart from interviewing Sophy and Dave, James interviewed Matt Tomas and Tom Millard .These interviews were set up differently as the cameras and Redhead lights were set up in the television studio, which had made it look professional.

Friday 14th May
Today we did more interviews for our documentary; we interviewed the main presenter Wayne Bartlett and the sound operator Samuel Luke Molloy. Later that day I labelled the tapes for Matt, who is the offline editor. Also I typed up the cutaways that were needed for our documentary, and mentioned things to include such as establishing shots of the location and the job roles for HNDs.
