12:37- Meeting End

Within this meeting, we also discussed how the whole project has gone. We both thought that it has gone to plan and we are both happy with the progression of the unit. We have stuck to our plans and the route of which we decided to take to complete the project, however one or two contingency plans needed to be used. 

The first contingency plan was that the wood we used in the advert to make up the shape of the table, had to be wrapped in paper instead of covered in paint which we originally decided. Although paint would have worked very well, paper helped reflect the studio lights, making the editing of the brightness and contrast a whole lot easier. 

The other contingency plan was that when filming, we could not get the camera at the correct angle in order to film the table. So what we had to do was use the trolley  which we used to transport the table to the studio, lay it down and use that as a makeshift tripod. Although it took time to find the right positioning, it turned out well and helped the editing process too.
