Group Communication
Four of us decided to create a WhatsApp group chat. We chose WhatsApp as it was the most heavily used instant messaging service within our group.
Organisation is a vital part of video production, however people are often busy so we can't talk in person, so WhatsApp allows us to message on the go whilst planning events without the need to be in the same location.
As well as communicating within our group, we have used Facebook's instant messaging service in order to make plans with one of the people that is doing the Russian voice overs for our opening scene. He is our friend called Philip Ilinitch and his primary language is Russian. However, he is able to speak english in a strong Russian accent which is exactly what he needed.
One of the characters in our opening credits movie is meant to be Russian. However, in reality he is English. Therefore, we needed someone who is able to speak English in a Russian accent to be the voice of the character.
Overall, the dialogue which Philip sent us was very clear and sounded realistic. The reason it worked so well is because the shots of the character speaking didn't really show his mouth. As a result, the dialogue didn't have to perfectly match the speed of the characters mouth.
The two photos above show a small part of the conversations that have taken place in order to arrange.
I believe working as a group to complete this trailer has been vital, the social media chats we have been using have been so helpful because they have allowed us to be able to contact one another even when we are not even physically present. Its been so much easier having been able to contact each other and organise dates and times for when we can do our shoots, its definitely been beneficial in our organisation of the project.
A conclusion as to why I believe group communication is vital is that it is so important for us as a team to be able to easily contact one another. Its good because we don't need to all be in the same place physically instead we can arrange and organise our shoots and the dates for the shoots. Having the group chats has been very important and has been vital to our team work and the overall outcome of the trailer itself.
