Lessons
Learned
 
  • Work with contingencies; be prepared for unexpected problems, e.g. cameraman did not show up for assignment, I had to stand in as one; editing took longer time than planned, had to re-schedule other events to facilitate completion
    of project.
  • Ensure effective communication among team members. Miscommunication or the lack of communication can result in unnecessary delay and misunderstandings.
  • Motivation is important. Although most team members do not have prior video production experience, encouragement and support from faculty and fellow team members promoted cooperation and helped the team overcome obstacles.
