Comparing AS to A2; JUGGLING EVERYTHING

In A2 media, we separated our group to balance things out.
Two of the students working on the video editing, one student working on the blog, and the other student working on the print based work.
However, we all got together for a few minutes each lesson to discuss if something should be added to each others work.

• Video work
Because our deadline was a little sooner than last year's, we had to film in a short period of time, therefore it was stressful to get all the filming done in the amount of time we have originally planed. Because we had a copy of dates of when to film, what types of shots and the locations, we was organized, and therefore we completed all the filming the time set.
AS media last year was less stressful as we had to finish all the blog work before we started filming, also there wasn't any print based work to be done, making it easier and faster for us to complete the project.
One similarity in both years is the group work and communication.

• Print based
We separated our group to balance the print based work and the blog work.
We have one student who does photography in our group, and we all came to an agreement that he should edit the poster and the album cover. However, everyone always got together for a few minutes each lesson, to discuss if there's anything that could be done to make the print based work look professional as possible.
There wasn't any print based work to be done in AS.

• Blog
In A2, there had to be more blog work to be done, and we had a target set to how many posts we should have done by the end of the project. Because we had to do more posts, we looked into more of last years work and took ideas from their posts and interpreted them into ours. It was more stressful than AS media as we had to be more creative to add interesting and useful posts to our blog.
In AS, the blog work had to be done before we started filming. There wasn't a lot of posts that had to be done except for the helpful ones such as, story board, shot list and location research... etc.
One similarity between the two years is that we still worked together and commented on each others posts, to see if any work can be improved.
