Final Journal Post

One positive from the final run through is that we were organized and knew what we had to. Also the lighting and sound was good as it came in when it was needed. We had an audience which made it more difficult, as some times they weren't receptive to the show.  Also the contestants had some input which confused the audience. The timing of the show was good as it lasted for the 20 minutes. One of the issues I faced as a cameramen was that the headset had become disconnected so I was unable to hear what the vision mixer had to say to me. This led to problems such as my camera not being ready and then getting put on live. Another problem was that the host for the show despite being told beforehand to not turn his back to the camera sub consciously did, which made i difficult for me to get a good shot. I think overall I did a decent job but I know I could of done better without the technical issues, I felt I was organized and knew what I had to do but I failed to adapt when I faced problems. From this project I have gained a lot of new skills, such as working with different people who I wouldn't normally get along with but finding a way to make it beneficial for all parties. I also learnt the complexities which go in to make a good multi-camera production. Overall I think this was a great experience and I am proud of what I achieved with my group.
