I think that I worked incredibly effectively with the rest of the crew and filled in the gaps where need be without question. There was an unspoken understanding between our crew members and I think that we've really gained respect for each other and what our specialities were during this process. I learnt a lot from them and they learnt from me as well.
In pre-production, I took on a lot, making sure everything was planned correctly so that we would minimise the amount of time we wasted on the shoot day. We had consistent communication over email and Facebook Messenger to make sure that we knew what was going on and everyone was in constant agreement. As I've said before, I wanted to make sure that everyone was okay with how I wrote the script, Fiction, who the characters were and even asked them what they wanted their names to be. I think that I held a good balance between asserting what I thought needed to happen and letting others do what they knew how to do best.
Whenever I made a mistake, which happens sometimes, I made sure to apologise and we would resolve the issue together. Also, if any of the other crew members made a mistake or needed help, I would try my best to resolve the issue. I think that we worked together effectively but didn't neglect the fun in the experience we were having together to be completely serious. I think I had a good balance between getting things done and becoming more than just business partners with the crew, but having fun a lot of fun together. I think this was worth mentioning because it would have been hard to complete the film if we didn't keep the morale up and just have some fun every once in awhile. I've really enjoyed collaborating with these talented people and would love to do it again!
You were an amazing writer on this project, you included the ideas of everyone and made a funny and engaging script! It was really fun working with you Sarah
ReplyDeleteI thought the film was really good, an interesting concept that could be expanded upon. The teamwork within the crew shone through in the end product!
