Production: File Organisation

This is how me and my group organised the video clips for our project. This blog post was made by Bagas.
We used our whatsapp group as a way to compile all the clips together ,since we recorded using different phones. After it's compiled I will then download and organise the files on my desktop using file explorer.
There is where I categorise the clips according to its location such as school and Bagus’s house.

Advantages of using whatsapp:

• Easy to connect and send

• We can discuss things as we send 

• Being in a group allows all of us to view the clips 

Advantages of using file explorer:

• Does not require an internet connection

• Easy to access

• Labeling feature makes it easier to locate video clips

Disadvantages of using whatsapp:

• Requires an internet connection 
• Quality decreases when we send in whatsapp

Disadvantages of file explorer:

• The amount of things you can put in depends on how much storage you have on your laptop, so if your laptop is full then the less amount of video clips you can put in 

Self Reflection

To organize the files, me and my teammates uploaded all our recordings in our shared WhatsApp group so it’s all grouped up and the editor (Bagas) can easily access them. Also, I specifically labeled all the scenes that I uploaded so when Bagas tries to find it, he could click the magnifying glass icon on the top right of the WhatsApp desktop app and type in the keyword to find that specific scene. This later on would save him time in the editing process as he wouldn’t need to search each video/file one by one. Next time, I would suggest uploading the files to google drive instead of WhatsApp since the quality is higher when the videos/files are exported and stored in google drive rather than WhatsApp.
