The document summarizes the planning process for a student film project. It outlines meetings held to discuss character personalities, locations, set design, wardrobe, and collaboration with the director of photography. Sources of inspiration were also referenced for realism. Challenges faced included problems with exterior shots, an enclosed space, and stairs. The main disagreement was over character names. The planning process differed from industry standards in that it required no funding, outside cast or crew, and had shorter timelines and fewer formal jobs and meetings.
