Working Relationships

3.1 Teamwork

Teamwork is really important as it helps the production run smoothly if everyone is communicating well with eachother. It also helps ideas to be generated the the finished production will have everyones in put. If there isn’t good teamwork then a lot of the tasks and roles that need to be done may not be done to the best some parts are missing or don’t work well.

3.2 Qualities needed to work well with others

Key qualities in working well with others in production include:

  • Good timekeeping
  • Being reliable
  • Teamwork
  • Sharing ideas
  • Safe working

I showed these qualities by:

  • being on time and keeping to the schedule.
  • Making sure I was present for all the shoot days.
  • Communicating well within the group.
  • Brain storming at the beginning and allowing everyone to share ideas together.
  • Sticking to the the risk assessment.

3.3 Working collaboratively on your film production

Being in the the camera team we had to work alongside the sound team so good communication was key to make the shoot run smoothly. There was a lot of rain on one of the days which meant we didn’t get as many outside shots as we wanted, so we made up for it by getting more useful footage inside Tylers house. I could improve my ability by learning more about specific camera skills and terms so I can work and communicate better in the team.
