Weekly Progress & Plan

 Here is the weekly progress of my project, I have also included the rough plan. 

Reflection: Implementing a structured weekly plan and progress tracking in our music video project has proven instrumental in maintaining organization and efficiency. The plan has provided a clear roadmap, fostering better collaboration and accountability within the team. Regular progress check-ins enable us to identify and address challenges promptly, ensuring the project stays on course. The flexibility of this approach allows for timely adjustments, and celebrating weekly milestones boosts team morale. Overall, this method has been crucial in achieving our collective vision for the music video.
