The document is a production schedule for a music video that contains tasks, expected completion dates, actual completion dates, and comments. Several tasks such as uploading footage and editing took longer than expected due to software issues such as crashing and freezing. Gaining permissions from artists and actors was straightforward. Early tasks like storyboarding, arranging locations and filming took more time. The rough cut and receiving feedback were completed as planned, while the finished video was a day late due to ongoing software problems.
