Production Log week 5

The key aims for this week were to have complete:

- Interview Mankamal Singh
- Interview Piara Singh

What I accomplished:

I accomplished one of the aims of the week, I interview Mankamal Singh about what the word Sikh means and I asked him if he thinks Sikhs cope well with being a Sikh in the 21st century.

Issues/challenges I faced during production:

Some of the issues I had this week were that I could not edit by work as it was half term and I had to change the date on the interview with Piara Singh as he was too busy to be interviewed on the set date.

Production Log week 4

The key aims for this week were to have complete:

- Interview Miss Crosbie
- Editing Miss Crosbies interview
- Look for music
- Look for archive footage

What I accomplished:

I accomplished most of the aims of the week, I interviewed Miss Crosbie and I asked her about what she teaches the students about Sikhism and if she thinks that Sikhs in the 21st century cope well with being a Sikh in the 21st century. Then I edited the interview down to what I needed. I found images of people doing the Sikh Martial Arts.

Issues/challenges I faced during production:

Some of the issues I had this week were that I couldn't find music that would be appropriate for the documentary but I could not find none and the interview i did with Miss Crosbie was quite long and I had to decide what I wanted to use out of all of it.

I got all of my responses from the contributors so I could confirm when I wanted to interview then.

Issues/challenges I faced during production:

Some of the issues and challenges I faced were trying to come up with 5 questions for each interviewee and I found it hard I was going to ask some of the people similar questions with a few different questions. I also found that most of my Risk assessment forms had similar hazards on them.
