10 STEPS TO A LEVEL 4 GROUP BLOG

1. Regular postings and updates, with no long gaps between them (unless these are explained)
2. Ongoing evidence of group work as specified in the coursework tasks, relating to research, planning, production and follow up tasks including inspirational links, actor and location photos, inspirational videos and tracks, video clips of test shots, plans, schedules, shot lists, storyboards, shot logs, feedback etc
3. Ongoing evidence of development, change and progress including diary style summaries of your ongoing progress as a group
4. Proper headings to posts, and named posts, including group posts
5. Lots of communication between the various group members, with regular posts from all group members, including reactions/suggestions/new ideas/arrangements and so on
6. Links to the main blog, and the group members blogs
7. A link to the final music video, album cover, and myspace
8. Thorough labelling of posts, using a labels list. Use labels to identify who posted what. All posts should also be labelled as either research, planning, reflections, production, post-production or follow up. As well as identifying the various stages, use labels such as genre, audience, narrative, structure, form, style, branding etc to identify the concepts being covered in the post.
9. Availability of the correct tools for editing posts, browsing etc
10 Your own blog style/ blog name (your group number must still be obvious) to represent you as a group, including a happy group photo!
