Communication In The Group

As we are working as a group, communication is a key element to success.  As we only have a collective five hours a week together in lessons to discuss important elements of our video, we decided to put multiple things in place to make sure we can all stay in contact if and when necessary. 

We first all exchanged mobile numbers for means of contact, but found it was too hard for group contact with this.

Media group on Facebook

 Katie created a media group on the social media site, ‘Facebook’, so we could all keep in touch with major events. We added our actors and band members, so they could also interact and see what we had done. We found this was best for more official bits and pieces. The only problem with this is that if we post something, everyone can see it.

Facebook Messaging

We have also created a message on Facebook that only our group can see, so we can discuss things whenever needs be if one of us were ill on a day. This has become our most used out of all ways of communication.

When organising our time, we found that everyone in our group all had round about the same frees as each other so we would organise time to meet and discuss media issues. Through the planning stages we found that this was a blessing, but as we became ready to edit we realised that we has less time that other groups who’s frees were spread apart. Luckily we have managed to decipher time between us.
