Daniel Potter - How we managed people

We managed people in the group really well to begin with, at the start of the task we counted up all of the tasks and then divided them equally between the three members of our group, taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of each of the members.

Sarah-Beth was tasked with doing the Hierarchy chart, budget, schedule, recce and contingency plan, these were the more organised tasks as she is much better at the organising side of the production.

Georgie had to create the storyboard because she was very artistic, as well as the casting because she knew many people that would be suited to the roles in our production, as well as the report on factors affecting timescale and the letter seeking permission as they were the more formal documentation side of the production.

Finally I did the table of materials, the equipment list, the script and the risk assessment, I did these because they are the more technical and practical side of production because i am technologically minded.

However when it came to the filming of our advert the management of people deteriorated quickly, we did not get on well as a team. We sorted this by working separately in two groups to create the TV adverts, Georgie in one and me and Sarah-Beth in the other. This allowed us to focus more on the quality of the advert and the clips used.
However we continued to do the written work in the original group.
