I really liked your lots production when it was shown in lesson. it was just really funny!!
I liked the part when all the little kids were screaming 'Because we're worth it' and i loved bazza's g/ma bit that was well cute!
i like your idea about how you will be following up 3 totally different women and show their differences its totally wicked and people should see how different everyones life is to others.

I think you should add christina aguilera and lil' kims 'Cant hold us down' just like the bit wen its the chorus withought all the swear words!! and theres a reallly old track its lisa mafia's 'Woman of the world' chck that out and USE IT!!!
I like the way you lot have used all dese nyc bright colours on ure blog, it makes it look sick and i love the ppics u lot have used!! OH and AMRITS SLIDESHOW of every1 was sikkkkk!!!

i find ur blog really nice and really feminin especially with those butterflies and pink writtings, it has detailed progress reports and lots of research,it looks really nice, i really like it. i like the videos which are feminin videos, you might add videos of pure womens like destiny's child.. maybe.
the impresive thing taht i really liked was the slides was really good.

from looking at your footage, it was really good and very feminin as well especially the lingerie part, and the interviews of women, what u could improve was the interview with ms Jones,the back ground was a bit distracting, if u could make it on a plan background, and put voice over when showing some shots where ther is no talking, and subtitles for the translation it will look good, u could keep the language that manveer's grandma speaking to show women form different cultures.
i hope it helpfull,gd luck for the editing

1. I really like your blog especially the butterflies in the background and i think you've done some really good research on women.

2. I think you could post of pictures of the places you've filmed at/visited.

3. Also you should include opinions of men on what they think of feminism .

I really like the colour scheme and layout of your blog which appeals to your narrative. I also like the butterflies.It's good you have posted up video links and included pics which makes your blog nice to read. I also like your footage which you produced so far, which was enjoyable to watch.

To improve you should post up pics of your filming in progress.

Your research into women is good. Perhaps you could add how womens rights have changed over the years? Why you feel you don't want to comply to old traditions?

Add some footage and pictures.

Get opinions from a range of people. Men/Women, different age groups, locations. Maybe get the opinion from a modern person, and the opinion from a farmer? How is it similar? How is it different? Why is this?

Ur blog luks real cool so far with all pink and stuff! I like all the little sayings from different songs...impressed with all the research you did on your subject but after the test screening I think it's better if you re-shot some of the interviews cos it was hard to hear some of them...Maybe even post up some of your own footage so far that would be good, most ppl wanted us to do the same.

I think it's quiet successful already and I already wrote what I think you should re-shoot...If you use the right music then your production will be really interesting!

WOW! your blog looks amazing its so girly lol.
i like the fact you chose to do ur production on women its a really interesting topic and i can't to watch it.

you should show some sneak previews of your production and get some males point of views on feminism cause that would be interesting. you have definatly done your research and it looks good keep it up.

The footage shown in class had some good elements but just needs to be developed slightly e.g. the dance floor needed to look busier. use lots of random angle shots (low angle) when filming the dance floor.

Good blog guys... detailed research and lots of regular comments. i like those images that you've uploaded... like a woman's ideal mouse.. Unique and makes your blog more personal.

in order to improve your blog, post up some footage when you start editing so that you can get some ideas from other media students and not just our class.

The footage that we saw in class was really good. ESPECIALLY Bazza's Nani and Amrit posing behind the dummy. In some places there is good attention to detail e.g. the part with the ladies underwear in the background as it ties in well with your doc. Just try and include some close-up hand movements during interviews.

Try and use unique music in your production as it will make it sound much more meaningful.

Good luck n well done

IVE GOT TO SAY THE BLOG IS LOOKING QUITE NICE, I LIKE THE WAYYOUVE RESEARCHED INTO WOMEN BUT MAYBY COMPARE THE PST WIT PRESENT, AND HOW EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED ABIT MORE, MAYBY YOU INTERVIEW SOME POLITICAL MEMBERS WHICH WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD RESPONSE.

I THINK YOU COULD USE SOMEPICTURES AND VIDEOS OF YOUR ACTUAL FILMING, THIS WILL BE GOOD AND ADD TO THE EFFECT OF YOUR BLOG, BECAUSE THEBLOG LOOKS FUKY AND ATTRACTIVE.

AGAIN I MEAN IT LOOKS WICKED JUS ADD SOME FOOTAGE AND PICTUES TO COMPLETE THIS BLOG. JAGJEET

Karandeep said...

1. An eye catching and informative blog. You've done quite a lot of research and have analysed texts well.

2. Use a tripod all the time and dont tape over your own footage lol

Nice blog guys! The work we've seen so far is really good and its a good idea to interview basran's nani. You've got some great ideas-the kids bit was so clever and cute! You seem to know exactly what to do. Just make sure you have some good interviews with successful females other than teachers. O and make sure the songs in the background keep reinforcing your message. Do a montage of females in business suits to show how they have become so successful-try going down central at for this cos there should be a lot of them there at their break or lunch.
O n love the footage of Amrit behind the naked dummys!
Keep up the great work and Good Luck

your blog is looking really nice at the moment, i like the feminin background and writing which shows what your blog is all about and your research is really detailed and impressive. based on the test screening in class you can add a few more detailed interviews with the public and possibly a good expert. when editing try and play some music where the lyrics match the message you are trying to convey in this documentary. also, try and add some pictures or a video of your footage on your blog.
keep up the good work

2)
Based on the footage we've seen in class .. it's really gud besides from when doing your interiew vox popz use a tripod choice the background scenery very carefully when filming Ms Jones interview the background used didn't look good.. when editing add good music to match with the documentary...

1. This is a very good blog containing lots of strong research. The girly theme realates well with the title and all the butterflies and styles of writing make its lively. Also it has a strong contribtion from the group, showing teamwork, which is great to see

2. You could maybe post up some of the footage you have done.

3. Voiceover could be used in some areas.

4. Use parallel sound

Good Luck!

Your blog is pretty. Its good to see that everyone is putting in an equal amount of effort into the posts.

I agree with what a few other people have stated about interviewing a few men, maybe married men or something.
Hope that helps! :)
