With reference to examples explain the differences between a contractual brief and a competition brief?
 -A competition brief is generally open ended and allows the recipient to interpret it accordingly and is heavily reliant on the recipients’ interpretation in which they aim to produce a superior product or artefact to their competitors attempting to achieve the goal of having the concept enveloped by their clientele. An example of this would be the Sundance film festival where Judges will assess each entry against the following three criteria —
(a) An excellent creative idea
(b) Excellent craft and technical execution
(c) On Brief
And the winner has their film premiered at Sundance London 2012, which is held at The O2, Greenwich
A contractual brief is an agreement between two parties with specific terms of arrangement which must be completed in order for the contract to be fulfilled if not the product or artefact produced is rejected and the contract void. An example of this would be our brief for Unit 27 factual programming in which we are required to produce a nine minute documentary conforming strictly to the codes and convention of the standard documentary as well as the heavy pre-production documentation that is entailed in the professional business.

With reference to a current brief, give an explanation of your roll in a group project you have been working on?
-With reference again to the brief given for unit 27 factual programming I have been placed in the roll of director/producer responsible for organising and setting locations and shots in which to film in order to produce the best possible product, the position also entails that I oversee and review all other resources and pre-production documentation related to the on-going project work such as storyboards, materials list, risk assessments call time and crew sheets etc.

What are your duties? What professional qualities do you need to fulfil the brief?
-(duties listed above repeat if necessary) essential qualities for fulfilling the brief are impeccable team work & building skills as well as leadership and coordination skills when required to enable the team to be as effective and efficient as possible.
