He then completed the other shot in this scene however, I explained it wasn't exactly what I was after. So as I have time, I decided to animate that shot too, which I roughed out first to see if I could do it. Then, I started adding the arrow's outline to give it form.
I added the backgrounds to my final shots. I had planned to refine this by adding spots of light to the character from the trees however, I struggled doing this so I may just leave it. I also need to make sure I have enough time to work on the press pack.
We facetimed again this week. We discussed the progress we had each made, and Rhys took that information and made an updated Gantt chart. As I was ahead of schedule, that is why I offered to help with the other's scenes, and I now have time to go back and refine the scenes I have completed so far.
I also wrote out a list of credits for Rhys to include in his final shot.
Originally, Harry said his brother would write the score for this documentary. However, he then informed me he no longer wanted to do it, so Harry took the role on himself. This was a little concerning as Harry had other jobs to do that were more important. I had also sent some examples of the sound I was looking for, and what Harry had made so far wasn't exactly what I was after.
So, I reached out to my Uncle Dan who is a drummer. He followed my direction much better as I told him the main inspiration was Kings of the Wild Frontier by Adam and the Ants, and other tracks with heavy drums. He got back to me within the week, and I'm very happy with this track. I have asked him to extend the outro slightly as at the moment, the song cuts out before the credits roll.

Near the end of the week, I added some backgrounds to the arrow scenes.
I also added a string because I thought it looked better. Next week, I will experiment with some cloud animation so the scene looks more polished as at the moment, I don't think it is suitable for our age range.
The colours are too bright and it doesn't work with the atmosphere the previous scenes set. If I can't fix it, when Rhys edits all the clips together, I will ask if there are any filters he can add to make it a little more gritty.
I am very happy with how this arrow shot came out. I will continue to refine it over the next week however, there isn't much I'm planning to change.
At the end of this week, I started putting together our team's press pack. I didn't mind taking on this role as I was ahead of my schedule and the other's needed to focus on their scenes. I struggled to understand this task based on the information we received in the presentations made available to us, so I did some research myself and watched some tutorials on how to build one.
I am still awaiting some screenshots and information, so this isn't the finished presentation. However, I feel I have added everything I can at this moment in time.
