Pre-Production Planning (Setting Shots) by Becky and Alex


The bridge.
Risk Assessment:  We have to watch out for the bridge might be slippy if it has rained,  we will overcome this by wearing suitable footwear.
We must be careful of the uneven parts in the middle of the bridge when placing the tripod. We will just place the tripod on the flat parts. 

Worth Way


Risk Assessment: We have got to be careful if the path if it is muddy. By wearing suitable footwear for the conditions. 
 
Coming up to the bridge
Risk Assessment: If were filming here we don't want to endanger wildlife. To overcome this we will carefully put down equipment and watch our step. 
Below the Bridge

Risk Assesment: Will definetley not be able to film here if path is this muddy.Equipment would be damaged and very slippery underfoot.
Overcome by: We will overcome this by finding a suitable place to film if this is not available.

The Path

  • We have chosen these shots to convey a dark eery setting
  • It is fairly isolated and the countryside is a commonly used setting in a thriller e.g. The Disappearance of Alice Creed.
Mob Manager location
    We currently have a few ideas on this location but we haven't finalised anything yet.
    Some ideas that we have....
    We were thinking of using a room in a stables but the people who own this do not want us to film there.

    In the end we have gone for interview room in college to film our scene....


    The interview room here will be good because it appears isolated.
    Risk Assessment
    Problem: Equipment falling down
    How We Will Over Come This: Make sure the place we are placing equipment is flat and make sure all equipment screws are in tightly.

    Problem: Light burning.
    How We Will Solve This: Not put the lights near materials or close to ground when they are on.

    Problem: Cold Tea (Whisky) spilling onto things.
    How We Will Solve This: Keep a firm hold of the tea when using and when not using put it on a firm surface away from where it can be knocked.
