1. I used my pre-production material in my final production by sticking to our storyboard, risk
assessment, materials list and production schedule. We kept to our storyboard so that we
knew what had to be done in each scene, and could stick to how it was planned. The risk
assessment helped me keep safe while down in the basement so I did not get hurt. This also
helped so that we were able to get permission to film down in the basement. We used the
materials list so each of us knew what I had to bring in for our film, and what date/time it
was going to be used. Lastly the production schedule kept me in line with what was being
done, on what day. Without this there would have been no organisation. Not only the things
above, but all pre-production helped
The pre-production was very helpful, as I said above; without the pre-production I would
have been disorganised and there would have been no schedule of when I was filming,
doing work, or editing. This all helped towards how the factual programme came together
and in the end how it is.
I used my storyboard so that I could keep to what was being filmed in each shot or scene;
this gave us something to stand by so whenever I was confused or I needed something that I
could look at to see where we were up to filming, or what was done next, I could look at the
storyboard.
The contact sheet came in use at the weekends, when I couldn’t speak to my group in class.
I would contact them when we went off to do certain filming on our own. I would contact
josh while he was off for a week to ask if certain bit of the pre-production was done. I also
contacted Annie to check that she was able to finish the filming of a church in her area.
Communication was a key element to our work, as we could then know what we had each
done.
I never did look back on the material list. Josh did a great job on it and when it came to
knowing what each of us had to bring in, I never had to check that because someone else
told me, if they hadn’t it would have been the first thing I would of turned to though as it
would of given me what I had to bring in and when for.
Everything within my pre-production assisted towards my final product by putting it all
together and helping me to be organised and not have to have panic moments of not
knowing what to do, or where to be or film because everything was written down. Dates,
times, items, contacts. I had everything I needed to do down so that our entire group knew
what was going on.
My production schedule was one of the most important pieces of pre-production. This was
the main part that kept us in order. I believe without this schedule it would have been hard
to keep track of what we were doing on which days. This gave us specific times and days
where we were working, editing or filming.
2. The script was another one of the top 3 most important pieces of pre-production (along
with production schedule and storyboard). The script was great during interviews. The
interviewer was all scripted but the interviewee was made up on the spot. This also came
into help during the narration by me. It took me a while to get my lines, so if I was to of had
to come up with something on the spot I would have struggled a fair bit. Without having a
script we would of all been pretty clueless as to what to say.
For the next part, I had some problems when re-opening
my premiere project the sound was missing. I re-edited
everything I had done so far and then exported it as a
video so I would have that part all edited and would not
have that problem again.>>> vvv
