This document outlines pre-production location plans and camera positions for three scenes. The first scene takes place in a corridor and aims to get a panning shot of the actor walking. The second scene features an actor at a desk talking to the camera. Multiple angles will be used to keep the dialogue interesting. The third scene has an actor at a piano talking to the camera, with camera positions respecting the 180 degree rule.

This scene requires the actor to walk this
corridor. It is a simple action but it allows
me to experiment with various camera
angles and make use of these during
editing.
I hope to get a
panning and tracking
shot as he is walking
to eventually reveal his
face.

Camera positions
This scene will be a character
talking to the camera about
the main character. As it is
dialogue based, I will keep it
interesting using editing.
To help this I will film her from
2 angles so I can play around
with these during editing to
keep the pace of the opening
up.

Camera positions
The character is talking to the camera whilst sat at a piano
in this scene. I will film her from a variety of angles as
shown above, however I will have to stick to either the left
and front or right and front camera angles to make sure I
don’t break the 180 degree rule.

I will need to recreate a library setting for this scene so I
will shoot with a bookshelf behind the character
throughout. I will also use two angles to film this scene to
keep options open for editing process.
