3. Style sheet
The colors within ”we need to talk about kevin.” is
used to convey a disturbing scenario without having
any disturbing scenarios. For example the plain white
represents the empty dry emotion of Kevin as well as
his mother Eva after the incident. This also portrays
Kevin and Eva's loveless relationship. What makes this
disturbing is the use of red. With the plain white
highly saturated colours enhance the violent red
throughout the movie. As red is mostly situated with
negativity, rage or alarms. For this film however it is
related with blood. With the lack of gore and blood
within the film, director Lynne Ramsey states
the colour red makes sure that the idea of blood
constantly remains in the audience's mind. For my
project, ide love to master this effect in order to make
my movie seem dark without using dark colour
grading. I want my project to emphasize my
protagonists mindset and his dark uncontrollable
need to get rid of people who disturb him. I could
even use the colour red to make certain things to
stand out as we are most attracted to red.

9. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Effects on production Solution
The camera could break. It would set the time we needed back because we would need a new
camera.
We would have to get a new camera for the filming of it, and also to
make sure that this doesn’t happen we would have to be extremely
careful with the camera.
We may not all be available at the same time to both film and edit
the advert.
It would cause us to take more time in the filming of the advert and
also the editing process.
A solution to this would be to plan a time that the whole group are
available to film.
We may not have enough props or are missing props which are
needed.
By missing props this would make it so we had either use what we have
and it isn’t as good or go and get them which would take more time
onto our time which we have.
To make sure that we don’t miss any props would be to make sure that
we have all the props before filming it and also we would have to go
and get the props from the shops to make sure we had what we
needed for filming the advert.
A problem with the planning could be that we may not be able to do
the things we want to do because of restrictions.
If we couldn’t do the things that we wanted to do we would have to
rethink our ideas and it would take us more time, and to make sure
that we can do the things we want, in the idea will look at each thing
and make sure that we can do them without struggle.
We will have to look through our ideas and make sure that each and
every section that we want, we can do without any restrictions.
Some we didn’t want in the shot could appear This would cause us to have to re-do that whole section and it would
consume more time than necessary.
A solution to this problem would be to go to an area which has no one
around that area, and if there is someone coming we would stop the
recording and wait for them to go and then continue on filming.
Not having what we need on time With us not having what we need on time, it will increase the amount
of time which it will take to film it because one person will need to go
and get what we need, and while they are gone the people remaining
cannot do what they need to because they haven’t got what they need
To solve the problem of not having what we need on time, we will have
to make sure that we have a list of all the items which we need on that
day, and this will stop us from having the problem of not having what
we need.
The audio for the camera could corrupt The effect which corrupted audio would be that we would have to
either dub the video or we would have to completely re-film the whole
advert, which would take double the amount of time because we will
have done it twice.
There is not solution or a way to make sure that the audio does not
corrupt so it is all about chance whether or not it corrupts.
The video file could corrupt in the camera If the camera video file corrupted, we would have to re-film the entire
advert because we wouldn’t have any content to show. And it would
take twice as much time.
Again, the same as the corrupted audio there is no way of stopping the
corruption and there is no solution on of the video file corrupting.
Someone in the group could be ill so that they couldn’t attend the
filming of the advert.
This would make it so that we would have to come on another day
where they are all there at the same time so that they could film the
entire thing without a person missing.
A solution would be to plan a date when someone in the group isn’t ill
so that we don’t have to change any dates that we need.
Having no free space on the memory card for the camera. If this happens we will have to go and get a new memory card so that
we can actually film the advert so we actually have something filmed.
A solution for this would be to beforehand when we get the camera we
will have to check the memory card to see if it is free for space. And
also, we could bring an extra memory card for the camera.
The weather If the weather on the day isn’t how we want it for the advert, we will
have to wait for another day where the weather is how we want it to
be.
The solution would be to see which days are what we want and see the
days we don’t want, and also there is no way to control the weather.
The lighting The effect which the lighting may have would be, if we wanted to take
a shot but the lighting wasn’t what we need it to be for that exact shot,
we would either have to wait for the light to change or come back the
next day so it is what we want.
A solution would be to make sure that we film when the light is exactly
how we want it, but there is no way to control the lighting.
Someone may not want to go to the filming With the person not wanting to be a part of the group we would have
to look for someone else to part of the group to help.
Make sure that everyone in the group wants to be part of the group
and want to film with the group.
Someone could hurt themselves during the filming of it. This would cause the production of the filming to take longer than
expected.
A solution to someone not getting injured would be to make sure that
there is nothing around that someone could get hurt on.

10. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
Electrical shock as water and revealing wires
are around.
Don’t have drink water next the keyboard.
Back strains by sitting in an unhealthy way. I must sit in the correct healthy position
Staring at the computer too long can cause eye
strain
Take rests after every 2 hours.
Wires can be in the way causing you to trip. Make sure I look where I'm going
Hand strains by typing too much. I will have to take brakes from time to time to
rest my hand.
leaning on a chair which could cause me to fall
over.
I will try and be sensible and not lean on my
chair.
