Prod. Eval: Redux

Every team missed points on Monday's worksheet, simply because you didn't answer all parts of the question. Several team members failed to answer the question AT ALL---teammates need to look out for this, and make sure everyone is doing their job.

You'll have a few minutes as a team to use your Prod. Hierarchy notes to finish answering questions, then we'll transition to a dry run of filming your story.

Open snap grades to see how you'll be graded today.
