5. Location
These are the locations I am going to film at. The first one on the
left is my cellar which I am going to film the first part of my short
film. The location is good because it is easy to access because it is
in my own house and is a perfect filming location of a horror film
because of the way it looks. The second location is a little forest
near my house which also easy to access because it is in walking
distance. It is also good filming location when its dark.
6. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
my camera could run out of batteries make sure it is charged before filming
my could get broken or stolen make sure someone is watching all
the time
The outdoor location could be hard to
film in because of the weather
check the forecast before filming
my actors could show up late or not at
all
make sure to remind them when you
are filming
My actors could be busy rearrange a date were they are free
it could be to dark to film make sure to bring lighting or check
what time it gets dark
7. Health and Safety

avoided?

prop
