reflecting

On the night it wasnt as good as expecting as not many people turned up for the event, we think this as a group because the Junction didnt help advitise the event they could of advitised it on their website as many people look at that we think more people would of attended with the help of the junction advitising it as well as us putting up posters. As not many people came to the performance some of the junctions facilities that were open didnt need to be such as the cloakroom only 2 people used that through out the whole night, which this could be a waste of the junctions time and money paying someone to be their for hours when no one really used the facility. The junction managers Alan and other members of staff said our imput was good and that we listened well and our performance on the night as well as work expierence was very organised and we followed their rules and regulations.

Overall if we were to do this project again i think that their should just be us a group instead of another college as well because through this event it was hard to get in contact with the fashion students as they had set days of being at college and so have we. Or if we had more meetings with the students as well we could of done a bit better on the planning other then having just two meetings with them as i felt this wasnt enough meeting and planning time together to put on such a big event as what we were putting on. I found the lighting could of been better if we discussed it with the other college as well because their Fashion show would of needed extra or different lighting compared to bands but as we had limited contact with them it was hard to guess what they would of needed for the lighting as there had to be a plan for the night the night before so the techintions could set it all up. I feel also next time we could avitise the event more by asking the Junction to put a bit up on their website for more publicity as there was nothing from the junction.
