Planning Targets

Revisit some of your posts and add some of your own comments and analysis to them - set yourself some targets based on your preliminary task and evaluate your storyboard! You need to show a schedule for filming - done before the end of term - and begin video-blogging as you go. Evidence some music research -based on your genre - and also design the tile font you'll use for your titles. Explain the reasons for all of your choices as you go along! A very neat and tidy documentation of your progress!
