My Top Ten Project
Killers
What could go wrong during production
|
How are you going to avoid this issue? What’s your
back up plan?
|
InDesign / Photoshop Crashing
|
Keep saving work every 5 minutes or saving multiple copies
of a certain document.
|
Model not turning up to photo shoot because busy/ other
reason
|
Ensure i have a trustworthy volunteer and book a time
where my model is available.
|
Photos not turning out right or forgetting a certain photo
I was planning to take
|
Plan my specific photos I’m going to take in detail, I
will also make a document explaining the exact shots I want to take. This
will stop me forgetting how I want the pictures to turn out.
|
Photoshop skills not being up to scratch so production
levels may not be very good
|
Watch tutorials and learn how to do specific skills on
Photoshop and InDesign.
|
Get distracted and not complete work on the specific
deadline
|
Be more organised, this could be done by ensuring that I
set reminders to complete certain work as soon as I get given it.
|
Equipment failure (no battery in cameras etc.)
|
Ensure the camera you use is fully charged, if it does
break, or is faulty, then I will ensure that I have another camera ready to
be used.
|
Vital files or fonts being deleted
|
Back up files to a separate hard drive or disk or go to
the IT technician to get back the deleted files.
|
Fonts not being installed to the right drive
|
Make sure you have a folder on your user disk space where
to store fronts just encase.
|
Breaking a constraint set by the press complaints
commission
|
I will avoid this by ensuring that I know all of the
possible constraints that I could break whilst writing my articles.
|
Not enough memory on the camera to store photos taken
|
Put the SD card into the computer and delete all the
photos from previous shoots. This will give me sufficient memory for the
photos from the shoot.
