MOIP2 - Day 10 (Production Day 03)

• For today, we decided to meet at 11am and latest by 1130hrs in the Audio Production Room to plan today's schedule first before starting to shoot.
• However, by 1130hrs, Wesley was still not in school. Joshua and Benjamin were starving so they decided to go to the canteen to eat instead.
• I had to go to the stadium to act as an extra for other group's production.
• Wesley arrived later and also went for lunch.
• I was waiting for Benjamin to call me back to the room when all of them have finished lunch but he still did not call me. I finished my shoot at around 1330hrs so I called Benjamin. He did not hear me telling him to call me once they are ready and on the other hand, thery are waiting for me to return.
• When Ireached, Wesley was trying to edit the sounds while Joshua, Benjamin and Guo Xiang are trying to set up the Jib inside and later outside the room.
• Wesley was fed-up by what they were doing as he felt that this was a waste of time. They could go to the location and ry setting up there instead as when they try to set it up here, they have to later spend time to keep it and later set it up again in the location for the shoot.
• In the end, Joshua himself was flustered and decided to give up using the Jib in our production for he did not want to waste time learning now with Caleb teaching us how to do so. According to him and the others, there were some missing parts of the jib too.
• I helped pack up and Benjamin return the Jib to the Equipment Store while the rest of us proceeded to the Tourism Culinary Academy for today's shoot.
• I set up the camera and unloaded all equipments from the car. Wesley then removed the cover of his car for the video shoot with Joshua's help. Benjamin then got ready with the sound equipments while Guo Xiang just stoned there after helping Joshua to set up the tracks.
• I checked the camera settings and adjusted the required functions like Iris etc.
• Actually i wanted the camera to be placed somewhere facing the front of the parking lot where Wesley is going to park his car but later i discussed with Joshua and decided to change the position of the camera and pan it instead of using the tracks to track and pan backwards.
• We then encountered a major problem: One of the bullies is not here yet and is uncontactable.
• Then , we decided to shoot he scenes with oly Wesley involved in it. We had to take a few takes as the sun suddenly shone so brightly that everything was overexposed.
• After recording the scenes, we decided to wait 30 minutes more for the other bully to arrive.
• Later, we decided to wrap up as we had to rush to attend some important and compulsory talk at 1630hrs.

After wrapping up, Wesley and Benjamin started bickering again instead of returning back to design school asap. I was fed up already and told them to just quickly return to design school for those travelling on foot while some travelled on Wesley's car. Why can't we still not compromise and get along well with each other. And Guo Xiang... I'm again feeling disappointed in him again as he just do things slowly at his own pace etc and etc... I could tell that everyone was rather disappointed today. Later, Wesley told me that they should have had their meals at home rather than coming to school and spend time eating and not using it to discuss our plans. Ok, this is one problem but unfortunately, this isn't the only one.
