DIARY OF PROGRESS:
YELLOW SUBMARINE REVIEW
14th October 2013:
Today I commenced work on my script that shall be used in my review of Yellow submarine (film). I intend to fill this review with jokes, laughs, funny scenes, a merge of live action and animation. But i shall also be making valid points on its use of different animation techniques and what went into its production.
19th October 2013:
Today I started my storyboard, to keep time I shall be working on it while working on my script, this is both efficient and also doesn't leave me getting bored or bogged down doing one thing continuously. Also it will help with the continuity by doing something and then redoing it in another form, this way it stays fresh in my mind so there will be no changes in the storyboard or the scriot, they will be exactly the same but just in different formats.
21st October 2013:
Today I completed the script I had been working on for the past week, it is (in my opinion) a work of art crammed with jokes, references, and clever interactions between live action and animation, both of which will be Incorporated in my review alongside clips of the film itself, this is similar in many ways to popular reviews such as the Nostalgia Critic, who is in some ways a source of inspiration for my work on this project and the style I've done it in, but apart from that I consider it to be some of my own best work.
23rd October 2013:
I completed my work on my storyboard, it took little time (spread across several days because of work on my script and other such things), and was done on time. as with many other storyboards this may be prone to change such as things cut due to loss of time or things being re-written because they wasn't plausible enough, but hopefully I will stay along its lines as best as possible, somethings though I already have a feeling may be changed, a part where i get attacked by a miniature yellow submarine that fly's around me like a house fly, maybe it would be best to change it to having an enormous submarine fly overhead and me duck and dodge it.
24th October 2013:
Today I both commenced and completed filming the live action sequences in my review of yellow submarine, managing to do the scenes where the animation interacted with live action flawlessly and used the cutaway scenes to my advantage, using moments where I wouldn't be on screen to read from my script. the filming was done with the help of my film crew who has been listed on other documents.
25th October 2013
I began working on all the graphics and animations that i would be using in my video, there will be little animated versions of me, a short skit of the TARDIS and backgrounds, this may be difficult but i will keep at it to make it to the best of my ability. plus this will help me gain considerable marks and show my experience and ability's at animation, something i wish to do later in life.
29th October 2013
Today I began downloading the files I would need to make my video, such as the film itself and various music files, also files and clips you wouldn't think I would need but would end up surprising you in the end, something which I am known to do. this may be a while because my computers memory is limited and this can take up valuable time and space but it will only be for a short while and will be easy to download with the help of YouTube down loader.
31st October 2013
Today I was made aware of a crisis in my filming, the fact that it was all missing, this meant that I had to redo the filming of myself in my jacket with a shorter crew, but a lucky break came when we got a better room and also we found the equipment already set up from a class that used it before we got there, so we didn't have to waste time setting up the green screen. After this mishap I made sure I had all of my clips where I knew they was and got them uploaded to my computer immediately.
6th November 2013
Today I finished my graphics for the film I was making and made sure they were all where they was meant to be, allot of them had green backgrounds so I could remove them just as I had with my live action filming, this made for a smooth effect and continuity with my live action persona, so there was smooth transitions between me and him.
7th November 2013
Today I began the long and tedious task of creating my entire film, putting all the film clips I had created and downloaded into premier pro. This includes synchronising the audio with the film, sorting out the volume levels and also included a large amount of special effects, but I am sure I can get it done in time.
19th November 2013
I have discovered the importance of rendering frequently, I got afraid when some of the film clips came through with poor quality but once rendered they were fine and HD quality. Also, I got afraid when some of my video clips of the movie would not load into Premier Pro despite me being sure that they were compatible file types, luckily Martin helped me out with this and showed me a way of shortening clips and files and making them so they would load into Premier Pro, also this helped the program run faster so i managed to make good timing that day.
6th December 2013
Today I was in a bit of a panic, my video project was still not complete and I was getting rather flustered, the computers in the mac room are the only ones that have the files and capability's I needed to run this program, however next week is reading week so hopefully I will be able to finish this up on Monday and get it uploaded and marked, however this still might take a while and will take persistant diligence.
9th December 2013
Today I worked non stop on this project and only just managed to get it finished, I have been facing a lot of hardships on this so was glad to have finished, but I ran into yet another problem to do with this project. the publishing time, once its complete a premier pro file must be published, I had only thought this would take a short while but the reality was that it would take more than an hour to publish, the file was too big and complex. There was only a few minutes left before the college closed and not enough time for it to publish, I had no choice but to leave it to render and publish throughout the night and come back tomorrow to finish it off. Unfortunately due to my late departure the last bus back to Maltby had left so they only 18 that came would only take me to Hellaby, my journey home was long, tiring and frustrating and not one i hope to relive again soon.
10th December 2013
Today I came in to see my project had been published and I was ecstatic to find that I was free of it, or so I had hoped. I had to restart the computer which had ran all night to return it to normal speed and then I had the problem of transporting it, it refused to fit on any memory stick I had and would not be emailed. So I had to wait while it emailed to my own account so i could take it home, thankfully this was fairly quick and I was soon able to leave.
17th December 2013:
I exported the film to be uploaded to Joda's account on YouTube marked as a private video so she can see it for herself, so soon I am hoping to hear from her, if there are any improvements that I can make that she points out I will be sure to work towards them and get this project done. When it came to exporting my film I had a range of formats to choose from but I chose H264 as this is compatible with a whole range of different computers so will cause less bother, but if the format cause problems with my own computer at home then I may have convert it using software installed on my own computer.

18th December 2013
According to Joda my project is too long and needs shortening, but also by her words I must not cut out any of my own animations, this shall be a difficult task but I am sure that I can do it, even though I was frustrated at this news considering the amount of work I put in, so I shall keep a full version of it for myself, my own 'Directors Cut' if you will.
19th December 2013
Today I believe that I have accomplished my goal of shortening down my video as much as I could by trimming of excess filming and shortening some sequences. When I presented it to Ioda she was happy with it and I was able to upload it to her youtube account (for a second time) and this time there was little to no faults with it. So I believe that I have done with this project.
