Reflection on the Past Week: Production

Questions:

1. My biggest success this week was collecting all of the raw footage and video clips that I will need for my video essay. I spent a lot of time surfing the internet, collecting statistical data, articles, video clips, commentary from producers, directors, studio executives, etc on the issue and I feel like I have a really good amount of information to work with now.
2. The biggest thing that went wrong this week was that I did not manage my time well. Quite frankly, I sucked at managing my time. I recently started a new job and my roommates and I rescued two kittens and that combination has proven to wreak havoc on my academic schedule within the last week. Other than that, video editing and compilation has had little problems thus far.
3. Next week, now that I have pretty much all of my information gathered and the largest part of the research and compilation behind, should go much smoother. When it comes to video editing, I am actually very good at it and it something I actually enjoy so I expect fewer problems this week.
4. Overall, I have had some hiccups and made a few mistakes as far as getting everything done on time. However, I am much more focused and everything has settled a little bit, so I should be good to go. I really like the direction my project is going in and I look forward to seeing my final product!
