Production Schedule

Plan, Plan, and Plan Some More!

This post is focused more on, you guessed it, planning the content outline that I created. Let's get organized shall we?

Let's Make a Schedule

So here are the main categories, and where everything fits into each category:

• What is to be done (What)
• Location (Where)
• Planned date & time (When)
• Resources required (Resources)
• Date completed (Completed)
• Changes made after completion & reasons why (Changes)

What:

This week I need to record my own voice discussing the genres that I'll be evaluating in Marketing and business. Then I need to edit out any unwanted segments, add effects, and put in the some segments of the interviews that I recorded a couple of weeks ago. Just thought about this, I also need a rough draft script which can be used to go off of in my podcast. Then the rest of the polishing will be done in post-production. This whole section involves the intro, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Not sure how the evidence and such will be tied into this, it's mentioned above, but I feel that it doesn't really affect my other parts of this post.

Where:

The rough draft script, and effects will be done in my dorm room. I don't need anything equipment-wise to do those parts of the segment. The actual audio recording will take place at my house, I have a pretty good microphone at home that I can use. Any last second editing will probably done at my house this weekend before Sunday.

When:

So the first part of the where will be done on Thursday night, so then I'll be ready to shoot some audio Friday night and Saturday morning at home. This leaves me Sunday to edit and put together a rough draft of my project. The script and the effects will be done before I go home on Friday to say the least.

Resources:

So the basic resources being my laptop and Sony Vegas/Windows Movie Maker will be needed for my stuff that I will have done by Friday. My actual recording on Friday night/ Saturday is going to be a microphone (unsure of the brand, can update when I get home). Other than that, I think the only other material I will need is a music source for my intro and outro music, but that's about it.

Completion:

The overall rough cut will be done by early Sunday. This day will consist of putting all of the pieces together, kind of like a puzzle. I want to make sure that all of the content is there, and I can worry about making it pretty the following week. All of the heavy lifting will be done by Sunday though.

Changes:

If I'm understanding this correctly, this is for if anything comes up after I progress this weekend. I don't really know of any changes as of now, but can/will update once I make these changes
