Past Student Evaluation Analysis

Declan's Evaluation - Analysis

Update 24/1/14

Update 24/1/14

Having started my evaluation analysis questions at home, I was unable to continue them at school, due to the fact that my software is not compatible with schools, as it's newer. With this, I started planning my own question 3 answer. So far so good, but I will have to carry it on over the weekend which is going to be a busy one for me! 

Past Student Evaluation Analysis Question 1 Declan

Declan Question 1

Here is my first evaluation analysis ... I will put all 4 analysis' onto a prezi, and also post them individually like this one.

Update 23/1/14

Update 23/1/14

Recently I have been focusing on looking at other peoples evaluations and have been carefully analysing them, going into as much depth as possible, so I can pick out the do's and don'ts of an evaluation answer.
I have been in the process of making a podcast for one of the questions, which has taken far longer than I could have imagined. I began using iMovie, because I was doing it from home, and didn't have access to FC. This proved harder than I imagined and gave up! I finally got myself the FC app, and have been working 'till late this evening perfecting it, and its finally done! That's now 3/4 of the questions done, just one to go before I can blog it! It seems as though I have done very little work recently, but actually, I have been hard at work doing the analysis'!
I should have finished all of them by tomorrow, and will be able to post all 4 up via prezi.

Question 4 - Plan

Update 16/1/14

Update 16/1/14

As of recent I have been looking at past student evaluations. I have been analysing them in depth using different technologies, so I can try and get used to different technologies in preparation for the evaluation. Its going quite well! I have learnt a lot of do's and do not's in the making of evaluation, which I feel will be very helpful for me later on. I will continue doing evaluation analysis', probably doing one for each student evaluation from last year at this school, and then one on a students evaluation from a different school, as I think the questions are the same for everyone.

I still need to finish off my website and really get stuck into my digi-pack, which is still at a very basic stage at the moment. This will be done soon, and a classmate has recommended a good program to make the digi-pack; GIF. I will take a look at this program tonight and will have a play with it and see how I feel about it, and whether I think it will be one I use. 

The music video hasn't really changed much at all. I have struggled (as mentioned before) to gather my actors together of recent due to work, or other reasons for unavailability. Despite this, I recently passed my driving test, which should make things a lot easier, as I can pick them up, making transportation not an issue at all. This should mean getting the filming finished and everything topped up should be done very soon, and I can then take a breather, because I've been very nervous about it recently, as the deadlines loom closer and closer. I have no doubts that I will have everything done in time, its just the case that I really want to be able to spend a decent amount of time doing the evaluation questions and the ancillary task so I can gain the highest amount of marks possible, to further boost my grades. 

Update 10/01/2014

 My first update of 2014, and there's not much to say, compared to last time. I was going to film a few days ago, but one of my actors came dressed completely different to last time, therefore it was completely pointless to film at all, because the continuity would be awful! This was really frustrating for me, because getting the four guys together is quite difficult, so to have a potential filming day wasted is annoying for me. Since then, all four of the guys and I have not had a day where we are all free - I'm hoping that the guys can be rounded up for next week, maybe in the latter half of the week, most likely Friday.

 I have done a little bit of work on the ancillary tasks, but without the main bits having been filmed, its impossible to fully complete them, because the next scenes I will be shooting will be what most of the ancillary's will be made up of. Miss Hill has stated that the evaluation drafts are in for 3 weeks, which I'm really worried about. I feel that its going to be really tight to make something up in time, considering I still haven't finished the actual task and the ancillary task, which is what we are evaluating; how can I evaluate something that I haven't done/finished! Its clear to me that there is no room for error anymore. One mistake could ruin my whole project because it can take some time to make corrections. With this in mind, I will definitely be 'Over-shooting', getting a lot more shots than I need, just in case something is wrond; with extra shots, I could replace/fix it so much easier. I have a feeling that continuity could be an issue. I'm going to be very thorough when checking my actors, the weather and every element that could affect the quality of my film.

I feel that the targets which have been set are reachable and achieveable, with a lot of hard work, and the up-keep of my efforts to protect my self against mistakes.
