This document outlines the pre-production planning for a skateboarding magazine photo shoot, including props, locations, and safety considerations. Contingency plans are discussed for issues like faulty equipment, injuries, and daylight hours. A weekly schedule is proposed, starting with content planning, followed by test and actual photo shoots, photo editing, and magazine layout and refinement. Protective gear, spare equipment, and a large group of skaters are accounted for to ensure productivity despite potential problems.

to produce footage productively even if some
people get injured
Skater injuring himself Skaters can wear protective equipment,
helmet, elbow pads and knee pads
Faulty skateboard equipment Check skateboard equipment isn't faulty to
ensure no issues
Daylight Hours In the winter there is only limited hours for
good lighting to film with to solve this we will
start filming earlier to use our time efficiently
7. Health and Safety

avoided?

ensure that the filming is done at a safe
distance so the camera wont have a chance of
being hit

able to produce footage productively even if
some people get injured. Also skaters can
wear protective equipment such as a
