SUBTITLE 2: Task Two: Planning and Procedure Materials

1. Individual Calendar of Events

Having an individual calendar of events is a vital when managing your own work in and out of the event you're working on. it helps you manage your time and make sure you're able to produce work for every deadline that is not just delivered on time but also analytical, comprehensible and to the highest standard possible.

When creating my own calendars I first of all input any other commitments I had and then added in my event work, by doing this I was able to keep to keep track of everything I had to do.  another positive of having event calendars is that you are able to think in hindsight. you can look in to the days before the event and manage your time much more efficiently. this helps prevent running out of time which would result in poor work and rushing to complete things. which would I in turn impact not just your work but the entire production companies work and maybe even the show.

It is also important to have a copy of these calendars on many formats including paper and digital. I personally added them in to a planner on my phone so I was able to be reminded on events/deadlines or communications I had to do or meet to further organise my work load. this helped considerably as it made sure that even if I forgot something I was sure to receive a reminder that gave me enough time to do what I needed to do in order to remain on task.

2. Team Minutes

Overall Meetings

Keeping a schedule of everything that is said in team meetings is an extremely beneficial thing to do as it allows you to remember and keep track of everything that has happened and what will happen. As they are usually taken at every single meeting they are also very useful for times when you're unable to attend the meetings but would like to check and read what was said or what happened in the meetings.

It is also good to have an agenda for every meeting. This is taken by the event manager (Paul). I can raise any questions or queries that need to be addressed by the team or between the manager and myself as Wardrobe Mistress.

In this recording I was asking the Director of the Dance Show what rooms were available for the dancers to change in so I could start my running order.

Communication with Dressers + Make-up + Hair 

Even though I felt it to be beneficial to have a face to face meeting with Hair and make-up as well as the Dressers because I do not have many free time I thought it might be more convenient to use email and texting to keep them up to date. I also used the notice board in the Production Arts room to pass on information and running orders to them as they were changed and updated. 

I their for decided to create a contact sheet to we could have each others numbers. This helped build communication with my team and helped me manage them better. It also enabled me to even out the tasks I gave to them so that I knew they would be able to fit whatever they had to do around their other work so everything was achievable and I would have an efficient and well organised team. 

The following pictures demonstrate the communication I had with my dressers, hair and make-up in the run up to the shows. 

I have also included equipment lists and things that I gave them to do.
