The document discusses preliminary planning for a student film project by Ciaran, Harry, Jack, and Jake. It considers two potential filming locations: a school classroom and Harry's house. The school classroom is more convenient with easier access during school hours, but it has limited time and potential interruptions. Harry's house allows for a wider range of props but would be less convenient to access. The document also includes potential story ideas, props, locations, photographs of the classroom location, a timeline for one story idea, and overhead plans for framing shots.
