Some tasks for week beginning Mon.10th

1. READING THE GUIDE - this is an extensive document and needs to be worked through individually and as a group; once you've all had a chance to digest it...
2. PLAN YOUR BLOG - work out who will do what as regards blogging, and set some guide deadlines for yourselves; discuss with me once done
3. DIGIPAKS - have completed and blogged on research + sample design ideas (try to create several: 'evidence of drafting' + opportunity for testing through 'audience feedback')
4. PODCAST 1+2 - record your 1st 2 this week; perhaps one to intro the group and/or idea; thereafter one more each week
5. TREATMENT - a 1 or 2 page doc, including visuals, briefly outlining your project (details in sep post above)
6. LOCATION SCOUTING + SAMPLE SCENE/S - shot, edited, reviewed and on your blog; please pass on all rough cuts/features etc to me once edited
7. LIP SYNC PRACTICE - everyone needs to have experienced this to fully appreciate the demands on your performers; its fine to just do a short, say 30-sec, sequence - or use the Barbra Streisand +/or Britney vid as appropriate. Reflection on the experience is vital
8. CAST + OTHER REQUIREMENTS - see sep post
9. SCHEDULE - as part of reviewing the cwk guide and planning, a draft schedule should include shooting - which obviously may change, but all should be completed within the next 2-3 weeks to allow sufficient time for editing/reshoots/Evaluation

HD footage can only be edited on Mac3 for now; I'm trying to find the money to fund new updated OS's for more
