Attendance: Max, Jason and Serene (Supervisor)
Absent: Aim (sick) Siti (Uncontactable)
D-Day is scheduled to be today with Serene looking at our volunteer recruitment video and sponsorship video.
Basically we showed our videos to Serene. Comment about the Volunteer video, she said that the volunteer video should be tighter, like just go into straight cuts, no need for blacks
As for the sponsorship video, she said that we should redo our concept. We already have the digitalization in already, we just need to redo the video line.
Things to do:
Report touch up (email Serene report before submission for read through)
Storyboard
Touch up/Redo video
The next preview would be on this Friday for the video only.
Other then that, everything should already be done out. When do you guys want to meet up to find DVDs and CD stickers before friday?

Report on Today's Meeting - 26 Dec 2008
Attendance: Max, Jason & Aim
Jason has just left my house. He has done some tweaking to the video by extending the ending so that the end message is clearer. He has also included the voice-over in the video already. The video seems to look very well. He has also done some cut-aways in some of the interviews. Re-did parts of the credits.

Now he just needs to do the same for the Sponsor video and also adjust the sound levels in the video.
The Report is 50% completed, not including the learning journey part of the report yet. That to be done on Monday. We tried to export the video and we realized that it would take 1 hour to export the video. Jason would pass me the video to see by tomorrow to anticipate the reactions on Monday.
Covers for CD and Report are done already. Most documents have been scanned. To be completed by Monday for final touches.
We are also braving ourselves that we would be doing further tweaking on Monday when Serene sees the video.
Next Meeting - 29 Dec (Monday) 9am at VISTA Room C1
Today's Meeting: Video and Report
Me and Max are doing the report currently. Jason is late for today's meeting. I have done 50% of the report. I'll need Jason's input for part 2 of the peport, which is mainly focused on problems faced during our project. Then the video will be done as well.
Our progress has gone well so far, now what's left is the CD cover and compliation of the document to be sent to the assessors.

Editing Report - 23 Dec 2008
Attendance: Max, Jason, Aim
Guest: Fazilah
The day's editing session was all about doing the voice-over with Fazilah. We did the voice over with her at about 12pm-2pm or so as we did many takes. After doing her voice-over, we then went to sharpen our video. We added the names and position of the people we interviewed as well as the clients and parents. But when we did that with the clients, we realized that we could not do for all because some were too short to put. The other thing was, we were then contemplating: "to put or not to put" as we know we had to have formality. We then decided not to put the names for all the clients, but add for the important people. We were also able to add a bar to the names, so now all names can be seen.

We then got people to watch our video. We then had mixed reactions.
Some liked the music, some did not really like it, they said that most of the shots were good. They also said to add some more of the video clients in the video, they also said to have some cut-aways during the interviews, but then again, it depends on what the interviewees say. They also said the beginning was a little too long. Solution for us a group, when first looked; To use the same shots from the SPONSOR VIDEO. The voice-over was not added yet. Which, according to Jason, I was a little too rushed to get people to watch the video because there was no voice-over yet and it does not have the impact we want yet. But he said that with the people's comments, it was a good thing, because he now knows what to do.
The video that they looked at were the volunteer video. Most of our participants were other G302 video teams.
Clients' age
Pheobe - 7
David - 11
Aaron - 10
Jun Wei - 12
Dylan - 14
Just in-case we need to put back the clients info in the video again.
We would be finishing up on the 26 of Dec. But then again may make minor changes on the 29th with the comments from Serene.

First look at the Rough Cut (12 Dec 2008)
Attendance: Max, Jason, Siti, Serene (Supervisor)
At this stage, we have already collected everything to make the video possible. We have photos, archive videos, great background music done by Siti.
On this day we had our screening of our rough cut, the part that we were most concern about, is the story part of the video, the first part of the whole video. We completed that part and were just about to put in the interview segment of the video. Serene said that our rough cut is still rough because it was not the completed video. On a happy note, she said that our shots are very nicely stringed, good shots, like the horse running up and down, the horse rolling on the ground. She told us that with our video we can go into straight cuts - that is cut straight away without having to fade in or out. She said to us, by the way the video looks, we are almost there, just need to put in the interviews, re-look at some shots in order to make the story better and put in the narration. She also said that we can have other people look at our video as a form of feedback.
On another note in this meeting, we cleared up some of the errors that were made in the VISTA Booking. The situation is that we booked a room and used another room - room that we have booked but did not use it. After going through that confusion and clearing them up, I have some suggestions for the booking system in future.
1) The rooms should all be color-coded in the system, so that when the system refreshes and go up to the top page, then the person booking would know that the page has refresh and if the name is not there and in the wrong color then they would know where to look. What happened to me was that when i booked for my team the system refreshed and went up to the top and I did not see my ID and thought the system did not register my name, it was only when Delia sent me the email then I found out that i had made a double booking.
2) The equipment list does not match with the suites in the system and in the actual suite. This was where I got into the confusion.
I have highlighted this to Serene and she has taken note of it already.
On another note, all bookings or loan request that needs to be done within STA should be done by 19 Dec as Serene would be away and has passed the task to Juraimi. So team, take note.
Latest News: Serene would like to see the final cut on 29 Dec 2008.
