Final Documentary

Weekly Production Log 6

Weekly Production Log 6

This week, i finished my voice over and got all the footage i needed, i could only do one interview with Games master staff, as i was running out of time and game did not reply back to me, this meant that i could only get one interview, however i uploaded all my footage and my voice over, and then i started editing it, i will put transitions and make sure my voice over is on point with the footage shown on the screen, and then add background music to make sure the audience don't get bored of just listening to my voice. I will add the interview at the end, however when i was doing the interview, there was a lot of background noise, and a different customers phone's ringtone went off, so i had to cut out that in editing, and i should be able to put the two pieces together, so that i still have an interview that is not ruined. I should finish editing b the end of this week and i should upload the final edit of my documentary.

In this week, i started my documentary, i got all the music and soundtracks that i thought i would use throughout my documentary, then i got gameplay videos of all the games that i would be showcasing in my documentary then i placed them all in rough order, in my script as i will be starting from the beginning of gaming and then advance through the stages of gaming all the way until the present, i followed my script and placed of all my gameplay videos in order of what will come, and this week i will also do my voice over for my documentary for the first 5 minutes. I still have to do my interviews, but they will be done this week or next week, i will only have 2 interviews in my documentary with Games master staff and Game staff, as the big game companies either did not reply back to me or did not have enough time to have an interview with me. once i have finished my interviews, i will upload and place them at the end of my documentary to finish my documentary with expert opinions ad knowledge. Doing the voice over will be easy as i can just go on a online voice recorder, then save the audio, then upload it to my documentary via the editing software. The interviews will be not very long i am assuming as i only have eleven questions to ask, and my interviewees should answer them relatively quickly.

In this week, we started to do our narrative arc, so we fully plan out our documentary with sections and each section has the sub-headings of: What, Who, Where, Why, Duration. we have to think of each section and what it will include and what impact it will have on our documentary, i will be trying to make my documentary engaging to the audience so i will have many video clips of video games and also i will have music in the background so that the audience are not bored with just my voice over in the first minutes of the documentary as i will be giving the brief history of video games at the start for about 3-5 minutes, and then it will move onto the interviews, I will have to source the gameplay of video games from the internet, usually from video game commentators or just gameplay videos from the game companies them selves, this will require me to download their videos from the internet and crop it to a minimal amount so that i only get a few seconds of the game, or alternatively i could just use pictures and screen captures of the video game but i think that will make my documentary not as interesting as a moving colourful video.

Production Schedule for Documentary

Risk Assessment for Documentary

Hazards	Risk Level	Precaution
Travelling	High	As I have to travel to actual stores to be able to do my interview, i will have to be careful when travelling to these locations.
Wires	Medium	The New Camera comes with a Charger, i will have to put the wire in a safe spot, when i will be charging it at home, so that no one trips over it.
Over-heating	Low	When the Camera is Fully Charged the wire might get overheated, so i will have to check the camera regularly to see when it is fully, charged to then remove the charger.
Actual Location	Low	As i will be filming inside the game store to do my interview, there will also be people there trying to buy things, so make sure to go to a location where it is less condensed with people, so that they don't bump into me or get in the view of the camera
