Contract and Evaluation

Contracts

I understand there are 3 main types of contracts. A written contract, verbal contract and standard contract 

 Written Contract

 Written contract provides certainty and evidence from both parties evolved. They clearly layout and discuss details of the contract once they come to an agreement it is then put into a document and both parties sign it in order to make it official. Some benefits of having a written contract is that it can serve as a record of what was agreed. It can give you security and peace of mind knowing you have work, for how long and what you will be paid. Risk includes that the court won’t enforce the contract because you may not be able to prove the existence of the contract.

Verbal Contract

Verbal contracts are contracts which a spoke between 2 or more people, verbal contracts can be supported with the right documentation if this is not provided you should always make a note of factors within the contract in order to counteract any problems in the future.

Standard  Form

Standard Form contracts is a contract which has been habituated, most of theses terms are set in advance. this means there has been no negotiation between the coteries. in most conditions the contract is biased towards the coterie who prepared the contract.

I have been asked by Sky to create a 2-3 minute long video promoting London transport, the contract has been negotiated between sky and South Thames college. I understand that I have to try and show as many types of travel as possible. Within this contract i believe there is no set budget i will be using the equipment available and provided by the college any other equipment I may need or want to use will have to be provided by me on my own accord making me responsible for it . furthermore any music I may use in the edits will  be copyright checked, in order to avoid any copyright law violations.    

 During the editing and filming time allocated to me I found it difficult the first time to edit the video in time as I had never used the software before however as the process went along I became more able to use premiere creative cloud do to the practice I had gained. For my finally video i decided to stick to the day to night theme of my entertainment video i created a short introduction using after effects just to add some extra visuals to mash up as not all my camera shots are as good as i would have liked them to be. recollecting back to when i was filming i feel as though i should have the thought and looked more into the lighting of the shots doing this my video would have looked much better, less dull and more vibrant. In conjunction with this i could have used different copyright free music  to make the video more upbeat and less tedious. Stating this I am happy with mu decision to transition my video from day to night and to incorporate text and information into the video to make it informative.
