Subject Areas/Group Meeting - IMPORTANT

Hey guys

We now have a new addition to the group - Billy! Billy will be working on the sound design alongside Tom for our project. After speaking to the tutors, I've realised that it is a good idea to have more than one sound designer and cinematographer. Not only does it mean that we have two people on board who are experienced in the area and can advise/give technical feedback about each other's sound ideas, but it means that if for any reason either Tom or Billy couldn't attend a meeting/shoot, the other could come and keep everything up to date in terms of sound. HOWEVER, I'd expect that everybody in the group will want to attend all meetings/shoots, unless there is a good reason not to...hangovers don't count! I'm more than confident about sound now, which is great because it's usually the weakest area in our projects!


I need you all to let me know your timetables BEFORE tomorrow evening. I'm hoping to get us all together on Monday 27th, some time after 12pm. It's important that we meet before Tuesday as we need to have a few brief ideas to discuss with Chrissie by then. Please make a new post on the blog with your uni timetables and, if you work, any details on jobs before tomorrow afternoon so I can start arranging meetings.

I also want to know about any important dates/deadlines each of you have for all modules. This is so I can expect that you will need more time to spend away from the project around these dates. I know that we'll not have this information for a week or so, but I definitely want the details regarding this by next Sunday 3rd October - I expect that we'll have attended all lessons by then, if not then the module guides should be on Blackboard.

Finally, we still need a cinematographer and hopefully a second cinematographer. If you know of anybody doing the Cinematography strand who might be interested, let me know and we'll discuss it on Monday. I'd rather not just have friends suggested though - I don't want the working environment to be turned into a social event, it's sooo easily done. We need somebody who is skilled in the area and, more importantly, who we can rely on (to do a good job AND to turn up!)

Speak soon!
