evaluation

We were asked to make a corporate video for a charity, the charity we chose was Redbridge Faith Forum. Redbridge Faith Forum is a charity that teaches people about lots of different faiths. this is good because people will have an understanding of what other people believe in. also it will reduce racism and helps people live with community cohesion.

We had to make a corporate video for Redbridge Faith Forum. The corporate video had to tell viewers  what Redbridge Faith Forum is about and what they do. For example our video was a interview which had questions which sums up what Redbridge Faith Forum is.

The purpose of the video was to inform the public about Redbridge Faith Forum and what they do. We had to promote there organisation to the public and show why they were set up, what they aim to achieve, what they have achieved so far and what they do.

Pre-Production
In pre-production we had to research about corporate videos, the conventions of a corporate video and what makes a good coporate video and what makes a bad corporate video.We then had to do some work where we had to write about two corporate videos why one was good and why one was bad. Then we had to select what organisation we was going to work with. we chose redbridge faith forum, we then had to research redbridge faith forum to get some knowledge about them before we went to go and see them. after we had chosen what organisation we were going to work with and got some information about them we had to go meet redbridge faith forum and get some more information about them. we found out what they do and what the purpose of their organisation is, we also found out what they have ahcieved and what theyre targets are. we then organised a date to go and film with them and planned what we was going to do and when we was going to do it. we then planned the structure of our video. Our video structure was to have graphics of the questions then have the footage of the answers after.

Production
During production we went to go and see redbridge faith forum and we did some filming. we did an interview with them asking them who they are, what they do and their targets. then we uploaded our footage and began to edit it. When we had to set up the shots for filming we didn't really have much choice of what shots we could do because the room we was filming in was really small, so we done an over the shoulder shot for the whole time we filmed.

Post production
in post production we edited our footage and began to put our corporate video together we made graphics that had the questions written on them and we inserted them in the appropriate places in the video then put the footage of the answer after. we also added some other graphics like the logo. and finally we put some background music in to go with the video and not make it boring. we also added images of the different logos Redbridge Faith Forum has so it the video wasn't just an interview because it would have been boring for the viewer.

The problems we faced with this was that we couldnt get in touch with the organisation because they were busy so we got a late filming date which made us rush everything.

The strengths of our work was that we had thought of a strong idea really quickly so we had time to elaborate on it and make it even better. however the weaknesses are that everything was rushed towards the end and we did not have much footage that we had filmed ourselves.

My opinion on the end product is that considering the time we had at the end and the footage we had we made it to the best it could be. it could have been better if we had more time to film but unfortunately that wasnt the case. overall i think me and my group put in allot of effort and the end product showed was rather good.
