Pre-Production - Storyboard

Image
Below is my storyboard along with the shots that I have taken to bring these drafts to life. These were drawn months before filming but I was able to successfully recreate what I had intended to shoot. The storyboard helped me visualise what I wanted the shots to look like as well as what kind of angle/shot size I would need to be able to successfully recreate them in real life. I think storyboards are a great way to communicate with your client and show them your ideas. Draft 1 - My Storyboard Implementing Sound into my storyboard For the intro and outro I will use music to string it together, I will use Hall of The Mountain King because it's a non-copyright track and it fits well with documentaries. For the next few shots I will use Lakey Inspired - Chill. I will use this because it fades nicely in the background and is also non-copyright. Whilst I'm transitioning into shots of the city I will use a piece of background music called All I really want, yet again I'm using a...

Pre-Production - Equipment List

Image
Provisional equipment list before obtaining said items and any add on's. Most resources will be obtained closer to filming time. Doing this list helps to prepare and organise me and my potential team before going out and filming. This way, there is no having to go back for forgotten items. For shooting in my house  Due to me having my own equipment, I am able to film at home with no problems. I have all the equipment I need to film the shots I need. However, I want to film out and about more this time. For shooting at Sunderland Bowl It might be hard to film with a Tripod outside, so I might have to film free handedly. I do have experience of this, so I should be fine. However I could potentially use my old Samsung Galaxy S8+ to get some extra camera angles of me playing on the machines. For shooting in Sunderland City Centre It might be hard to film with a Tripod outside, so I might have to film free handedly. I do have experience of this, so I should be fine. Plus I will have to ...

Pre-Production - Risk Assessments

These risk assessments are helping to identify what could potentially go wrong when shooting. This way, me and anyone I'm working with will be aware of potential hazards and ensure we carry out safe practice when filming. In identifying these hazards, I can also lower the risk of an accident occurring because of them. A lot of them are now trivial or low risk meaning that it is unlikely an incident will happen during these visits.  Sunderland City Centre - Risk Assessment Risk Assessment Template (Exemplar).docx from ElliotDaroczy Sunderland Bowl - Risk Assessment Risk Assessment Template (Exemplar).docx from ElliotDaroczy

Pre-Production - Location Scouting/Release

Image
The following are two documents that are partially completed. This was their status before going to the location. I will be filling the rest of the form with the relevant contact at Sunderland Bowl and Sunderland City Centre. This form allows me to prove that I have permission to film on the premises so that an issue does arise around filming on their venue, I can back it up with this. Upon attending Sunderland Bowl, I enquired whether permission was needed to film in their building. I was told that I was free to film as long as I didn't film anyone who didn't give consent. Of course, that meant that I had a green light to film and didn't need written permission.
