Plan for filming

Plan for filming
From this Monday onwards, we will be filming for approximately three weeks. In order to ensure that we make the most of these three weeks, we have produced a plan with dates, in order to ensure that we capture all footage we intend to do and we do so in an organised, efficient manner. As well as this, we created a timetable for filming.
1^st lesson: Today we will be familiarizing ourselves with the equipment and filming background footage. We intend for every group member to become familiar with the equipment. We will be going round the college, experimenting with features such as zoom and manual focus, tilts, handheld and pans, so that we can ensure when we film outside of college we know exactly how to work the equipment without supervision.
2nd lesson: Today we will be filming more background footage and some vox-pops. 
3rd lesson:More background footage and vox-pops.
4th+5th lesson:In this lesson we will be travelling to Birmingham to film background footage, and to film a tattoo studio and piercing studio. 

Timetable for filming

This is a timetable I created in order to establish the timetables of all members of the group. This allowed to prepare when filming times were available and the amount of time we had in order for filing and where was most approbate to journey outside the college or film interviews etc. 

Update 6

We are currently in the process of writing up drafts of our script. We are also in the process of creating a storyboard which will feature different clips of our documentary.

Update 5

We have now finished filming for our interview. We are now editing the clips and this is going well. We are organising which clips to include in our documentary and which are most appropriate for which parts in the documentary. We are also beginning to produce our script, and a storyboard.

Update 4

We have now reached the stage of assessing the risks that are possible to occur whilst filming. We have also observed codes and conventions so that we can make our interviews as successful and organised as possible. We have also arranged a few interviews and locations. 

Update 3

We have now finished our first week of filming - filming has been successful and has gone to plan, as we have followed our filming schedule and have filmed an expert interview, vox-pops, background footage and archive footage.

Update 2

Throughout the past few lessons, we have been filming our documentary. We have been to Birmingham, and Solihull, filming various voxpops and interviews with professionals such as teachers. We aim to get a variety of different peoples opinions from different age ranges to develop an opinion representative of the overall population and not just students.
