Documentary What helped me most on my journey? The thing that helped me most on my journey was definitely perseverance and commitment even when things are going wrong. Not everything goes right, and if there was ever a time I learned that, it was during the making of this documentary. I also think that because I've had experience making long format videos before, that really helped. I also think my ability to pro-long what I am saying to push things to the 10 minute mark really helped (the art of waffling). One of the main factors that helped me was also my past projects that I have done, without them it would have been a lot harder to complete mainly the written work as it is easy to always refer back to. Importance of planning I always feel like a broken record player when it comes to talking about the importance of planning as I can never stress enough how important it is to plan for the worst.

Post-Production Due to complications with filming and availability of actors, I've had to completely ditch my current project and start over with a completely new documentary.

  I disagree with the first statement as I had both product research and audience research included in my pitch which showcased how I was going to use them in order carry out my product. It is overall positive feedback and people liked my pitch. The third response is interesting as I think it perfectly fits the brief. Talks about the dangers of the digital age and the scare around online dating. I agree that there needs to be more about time management but i am planning to include that into my pre-production
