16th oct

I stated work on the "what, why, who, where and how."

I discovered that this is as literal as it sounds.

Filming my product needs to commence at around the 30th of October. My main chunk of filming will be concert shots and interviews at concerts, so it is important i find a number of possuble dates of concerts i can attend to begin filming.
I will do this by finding local bands on MySpace, and looking at their gig listing. I will be able to see if there are any conserts in november/early december, and if there are, that band becomes a possibility. I will then e-mail the band, asking for permision to film them and interview them. If agreed, i will attend their concert and begin.

I began to improve my single pitch for my main idea. I changed it to suit the review on it when i first did the pitch. I added more information about my product, and took ouot everything i felt unneccessary.

I have leart how to capture exactly what is going on on my computer screen. This means that i can capture myself using MySpace, and import it into my product.

The programme is called Windows Media Encoder.

  1. Click Capture Screen
  2. Specific Window (this looks best, however, an entire screen can be captured)
  3. Audio can be added by clicking it on
  4. Find a place to save the file
  5. Select High Quality
  6. Fill in the details
  7. Click finish
  8. Press Start Capture, and the window closes, immediatly capturing the screen
  9. To pause, bring Encoder back up
  10. Press Stop - Preview it

It is a good idea to bring up the window required for filming BEFORE bringing Encoder up.

11th September

My work on 4.1 (originating and researching ideas for production) was continued.

I looked at what products are similar to mine and used this to find a gap in the market. This was then used to say why my product worked well.

I then gave ideas for my product with some basic research.

Finally, i researched what is involved in my documentary. For example, the use of MySpace, and how it works.
