Remember This

Remember This is a fellow creative enterprise project/practical dissertation orchestrated by my peer Matt Coot. Matt's creative project was concerned with producing a short film - Remember This - and then submitting it into various film festivals. However, as was the case with EYES, Matt's project was not completed at the time of the final module submission; that said, it did not prevent the potential of the project from being awarded a First! 

And here (a year-and-a-half later) is the final cut...

While does tell a good story, I do still have a few issues with the final cut (mostly technical), but, meh, it's Matt's film at the end of the day, he can do what he likes.

You can find out more about Remember This on Matt's website.

Matt Coot - the orchestrator of Remember This.

As a means of support to double each of our effectiveness, Remember This was produced in co-operation with my EYES web series project, from October 2012 to May 2013. As such, I served as the co-producer on Remember This, in return for having Matt (writer, director, co-producer and co-editor) serve as the co-producer on EYES. 

In addition to producing (nagging) and providing technical support, I also took many photos of the production.

I was heavily involved with the organising and co-ordination of Remember This during the pre-production phase before Christmas (Oct - Dec), but in the New Year I devoted more of my time my own projects. However, throughout the whole process of making Remember This, my producing role has consistently been concerned with motivating the members of the project and keeping everything on schedule. I also offered additional technical support during the production phase. The documentation I produced for Remember This can be viewed here.

For more information on my role in the making of Remember This, please see the feedback videos below. I made these videos as feedback for Matt's portfolio, but they also act as my reflections on my producing role for Remember This.

 

EYES Preproduction Meetings - Clarity

I would just like to make it clear that regardless of the fact Matt (my co-producer) has only produced one minutes of the meeting document for one of the EYES preproduction meetings, there were actually five preproduction meetings for EYES (see my Time Invested Log Sheet)!

This is slightly annoying when you consider how many documents I put together for Remember This.

Weekly CE Projects Sync

Due to our working together for One Door Opened, our second year assessed short film, Matt, Tish and myself have banded together to assist each other with our Creative Enterprise Projects. As such,  I have insisted thatt each week we meet up to have a meeting, no matter what!

An extract of the one of the meeting agendas I prepared.

I call these meetings our Weekly CE Projects Sync as it gives each of us an opportunity to discuss the progress of our projects and for the other members to make suggestions. I've found these meetings to be really useful because of their general support and, more importantly, for the feedback they generate. 

The Agendas and Minutes I wrote for these meetings can be viewed here.
