Week 1
We started our researched on music video by analysing several music videos that belongs to the genre we are interested in making. Im so excited.

Week 2
This week we continued our research on music video. We also started researching the branding of different bands.

Week 5
- We printed out the lyrics so it will be easier to make a timeline
- We started making lists of possible locations and band names

Problem:
- Haven't decided on a band name

Solution:
- Brainstorm harder
- Discuss with team more

To-do:
Make a timeline

Week 6
- We thought of more locations
- We thought of more ideas
- Casting

Problem:
- Haven't finalised on the casts and equipment
- No storyboard

Solution:
- Make the storyboard
- Talk to possible casts
- Location scouting

To-do:
Make storyline

Week 7
- Polished my blog, our teacher gave us a checklist in the order of which post should go first and I managed to tick all the checklist.
- Inputed statement of intent


Problem:
- Haven't tested the actors, but they have been informed of their potential presence in the music video. Fortunately most people we approached agreed, so we just need to set aside some time to test them but we havent reached an agreement of which date we all would be free.
- No storyboard, we have  a very simple and crude drawing of storyboard to give us an idea but have yet to make a detalied storyboard.
- Haven't scouted location. We've planned which locations we might use, all we need to do is to finalise the options by visiting and surveying the area in person.

Solution:
- Start testing actors, we gotta find a time where we all can meet with the actors. Also decide how we should test them.
- Make storyboard. Detailed.
- Find time to visit potential locations. We have to finish the location scouting by the start of next year.

To-Do:
Complete reflections for blog posts

Reflection:
I am not satisfied with the slow progress we are making in the project. Compared to other projects we did in the past, we spent such a long time on finding a music to use and what concept we want. If we continue to work the same way, I don't think we will be producing anything good. I hope in the next term we will use our time more efficiently by spending more time outside class to work on the project, and not delaying work.

SEMESTER 2
Week 1
- I received feedback from my teacher and I have made several changes based on the feedback, one of them being writing longer and better weekly progress. 
- We changed our blog format to conform with Cambridge's preferences. This resulted in several issues with the layout of my blog and texts and images being all over the place, but is still readable so don't worry too much about it. 
- Our team had a risk assesment for the locations we've scouted.

Problem:
- We have yet to test our actors because we couldn't reach an agreed date. We will try to arrange a date with the actors by next week before we start recording.
- We haven't made a complete storyboard

Solution:
- Make a calendar to keep all we need to do in track.

To Do:
- Talk to the actors and arrange a date to meet up and test them.
- Discuss the storyline of the music video to make a complete storyboard.

Week 2
- We started planning when to shoot and created a schedule to organise it. Link to Schedule
- We made more draft storyboard for other scenes we have not drawn yet.
- Recreated several scenes to see and compare which ones would be best to do. 

Problem:
- We have several props not ready yet, such as the piece of printed paper saying out of time. We will try very hard to get it ready by the latest tomorrow at 3 PM.
