My role

My role in the project is to be the camera man and also to assist Benson in video editing. I am pretty happy with my job, since I am handy with the camera and it also something I like to do. Since the start of the project we have only assigned roles, and the script write has began to write the script. However no filming has been done yet which is understandable, since we have not gotten the script yet. Today during class we got the script for a scene we could do with out Sean and Wan-Yi. However we have not rehearsed it yet and the directer wanted to go straight into filming, which the rest of the group didn't agree to. Due to the fact that we had no costume ready, no props, and no proper setting for the scene. Therefore we ended up rehearsing the scene which ended up very messy since the director didn't seem to have the power to make people concentrate. So far the experience hasn't been pleasant due to the arguments and it seems like we have no work done at all. The director seems to hold a grudge against one of the members, due the personal issues. The two both wanted the position of director at first but after some thought one of them gave the position away to the other; who is now our director. When ever the member is trying to give an opinion or contribute to the plan/discussion the director either ignores him or tries to put him off. The rest of the team has all seen this happen, and I believe that I speak for the whole group the director seems to be incapable to do a good job as the director. Now reflecting on my own effort it doesn't seem like i have done much other than contributing in discussions and calming the group down during arguments.
