Last week Monday we started our Final Major Project. We had gone through the brief as a class and asked any questions which are needed to be answered. Than we had started to mind map ideas for our final project so we had made a list and decided which one was the best fit for us. The concept I had selected was a podcast series for mental health and how it also effects sports people. - 4/03/2019

Last week Wednesday we have started creating our proposal and pechakucha. We had started writing our proposal. We also created our timetable for what we are planning to do day by day. If we are unable to stick to it we change it and update it onto our blog so we can show what happened and what set us back. - 06/03/2019

Than in DIL I had started to create my pechakucha this is so that I am putting all the information i get from my research into the pechakucha. - 13/03/2019

On Thursdays lesson with John we were doing research. We researched more information into our FMP and what will be needed and what parts we need to research. John went to every student telling them what they need to research and what will help them more towards their final grade. Than in the last lesson of john we had completed our proposal. This was completed before the deadline. 14/03/2019

On Friday i had completed the whole of my proposal with information which was needed. I also had completed my timetable and filled in the missing spots which was left in the timetable. Than started adding some pictures in my prechakucha which was filled with images on 9 slides with detailed pictures which would show people hints on my project. Than I started to think about what other things i can add onto my pecha kucha as i was stuck with ideas to put onto the slides of my work. 15/03/2019

In this lesson I was doing some planning for my FMP. This also pushed me further into my project and helped me with it a lot. This helped my understanding and my knowledge into my project. I also had watched a few podcasts into my work and see how long they are and where they are published.

In martins lesson I had got my results and then was told to complete my corrections than in the lesson after my break I had started to finish of my PechaKucha. This helped me review all my slides I had created and know what I will be saying and what I won’t be saying.
I had performed my Pechakucha in front of the class and had done reviews for the other people. This helped me put my idea out there and see if anyone had any tips for me to improve my work.

In johns lesson I had carried on the research I had started form last week. This research was into the work I had decided to do for my FMP. This was research into mental health and how it affects people. I also had to research into how many people in the population are affected by mental health. I found out that 1 in 4 people suffer from mental health.

I had done more research throughout the day and also I had done more research and more planning for my project. This helped me loads in my work and my understanding. I also had completed my project from last time due to getting my results on Wednesday.

This week I have completed my research task which was given to me by john. I also had done more experimentation and more detailed analysis on my final work. This was done by researching into different podcasts which have been enjoyed in the world. This was chosen by how many people have seen that podcasts and how many have commented on it with positive and negative feedback.

On the monday i had started to finish of the script for my podcast. There was a few issues when doing this which was that in some parts I had my text in formal and informal. This made me have to redo some of my text again as it was a struggle from changing things. I also had a few other issues when it came to booking the radio advert. This was because of people booking out the recording studio at the same time as its was needed by many people.

On Wednesday I had recorded the studio out at 1-3pm. This was an allocated slot to me given by the media tech. When I had started to record there was many issues when I was playing it back. Sometimes I could not hear any sound and then sometimes I could but couldn’t hear my voice clearly.

On Thursday I had carried on my script and have corrected it so it had the same grammar all the way through. This made me need to redo my second episode. As my podcast was informal but my first episode was in a formal speech.

On Friday I booked the recording studio out from 1-4. This would have given me enough time to record my podcast episode 1 and 2. I had a few issues when starting to record which was the lead wasn’t working but this was due to the fact that the cable given to me was only able to work on one certain mic. Then after changing the cable I was able to record my first two episodes and I have to edit them which is remaining.
