Earlier in my blogging for this course I talked about learning how to frame and which formats to use specifically for web content. That is, that typically posting this content in a square format is more consumable for mobile devices on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and is something that is prudent when creating a web […]

Pre-production is an area that we drastically have to improve upon, during our preparation meetings for the pilot we focused too much on the actual production stage of the pilot as opposed to the pre-production stage. Time that could have been spent doing location recces, casting, script revision and production scheduling was instead left on […]

This week we were finally given a taste of what was in store for our web series, after the previous class where there was a lot of hyperbolic despair about miscommunication and disorganisation.

Something quite exciting happened recently, the place where I was working decided to hire me as a video producer (I don’t know my exact title, just that I’ll be producing video content). Thus far I have only made vox pop content, but I’m really keen to see where this could go. I shot this when […]

Whether that be more diverse characters, or less bureaucratic productions with greater audience connectivity and community or simply to support ‘the little guy’. Web series have been that format, usually residing on YouTube or Vimeo – […]

I was only able to attend one class in the first two weeks of Uni due to getting a very severe flu that doesn’t seem to want to go away. In the class I did attend Robin laid out the basic objectives and sent out feelers to the class to gauge their interest on how […]
