Why are meetings important to a production?

Meeting are important to a production as they enhance efficiency. All members of the group were able to communicate regarding all decision making and potential issues that could have occurred. This enabled us to make progress and constant improvements in order to meet the requirements of the thriller opening. Communication also allowed us to work better as a team.


     Overall do you think your group worked well together?
 
   
     As a result of meeting on a regular basis, decisions were made effectively as all viewpoints were taken into consideration. This allowed us to maintain a positive working relationship with one another. Tasks were distributed evenly to the suited person according to the task. For instance due to previous experence amie was very good at mangaing files this helped us to work well and meet each others skills.
