  • Senior Studio Media Production Documentation Edit
    Senior Studio Media Production Documentation Document every last piece of paperwork associated with your production. The best way to do this is to create an on-line document that can be edited by the key players and can be kept up to date. This is a way to share information with your instructors, key creative personnel, and your entire crew. This includes everyone in the creative process, increasing their investment in the project and their performance on set. Online posting also creates a centralized back-up of all paperwork that is accessible to all crew members with internet access. Different crew members should be responsible for the posting of different documents (see the list below). The producer and director should make sure that individual crew members post the documents they are responsible for, and should follow up with crew members if they have not posted their paperwork. Students not familiar with the on-line syatem need to get familiar asap. Do not wait till a document is finalized to post it. Simply post the most recent version, and when there is a newer version, modify or delete the attachment of the old version and attach the new version to the existing posting. Note the date and version number in the text of the posting. What to document/post: Each Discussion Board should minimally include, but is not limited to posting the following: Script: Posted by Writer or Director Most recent draft only. Keep at top of discussion board. Production Timeline or Calendar: Posted by Producer A complete list of start and stop dates for all preproduction and post-production tasks to be completed.
