Choosing our group was more complicated than originally anticipated; we all liked eachothers ideas and before anything else, had to consider what everyone's qualities were and who could bring what to the group.
For our class the specifications were:
- 3 groups of three
- Each group had to have a male (there are three males in our class, and so that there would be a balance between males and females)
- Each group should have a photography student (there are three photography students in this class and therefore to make it easier when it comes to creating the website and digipak)
To make the entire decision easier, I decided to jump into a group with Chris. I liked his ideas, I live in the same boarding house as him and I think I'd be able to work quite well with him. He also has economical knowledge and would probably be able to sort out some of the Business areas of the project quite simply. That works well with the AS Business qualification I have. He also has photoshop, therefore it will probably make it easier for us to share files when it comes to creating the digipaks. When needs be he can come up with creative ideas, and even though our tastes in music are different, each of us can be flexible and come up with a cool idea.
Nanci decided to join our group pretty quickly afterwards, just to make the decision of who to work with easier. Nanci and I were in the same media class last year, and even though we didn't work on our thrillers together, we get the hunch that both of us can work quite well together. Next to this, Nanci is a theatre student and will probably have an idea of who would be a good cast and who can do acting, as well as contact the costume department and set department in case something is needed for our music video. She also has a creative mind and can come up with good ideas. Whilst she is not too IT driven, it doesn't matter because we'll be able to get her into it pretty quickly and work together with her. She understands the principles of camera work and will be able to give good input.
Myself, I am the photography student of the group. I'm also part of Hurtwood Film Academy, and an art student, so I am pretty creatively driven.
Overall, I feel that all of us can equally work well together in a group and come up with a good idea, and in the end, create a good music video to broadcast as our coursework.
