Meetings

Why are meetings important to a production?

Meetings are vital in the production process because the whole group have to have an understanding of what is best for the group. The best way to do this is through sharing ideas in meetings. Meetings helped every group member get their opinion through. It also allows a group to be organised and keep track of time.


Overall do you think your group worked well together?

I think that worked very well as a group because we all worked with same objective in mind (to create a successful, conventional thriller). After every meeting that took place, we knew exactly what we wanted to achieve when we carried out tasks. This was an advantage because it meant that no time was wasted when we carried out tasks. When we created our credits, we knew what we were going to write because we had decided in a group meeting. When we chose the soundtrack, we decided that we would all look on a different website. This helped us save time.
