OUR FINAL OPENING SEQUENCE - Captive

Wednesday 9 February 2011

What could go wrong?



These are the specific problems which could affect us:

  • Bad weather conditions - could affect shot quality & cause issues for health and safety (actors slipping over/hurting themselves) - if there is rain we will make sure we take umbrella's and we will make sure we have a plastic bag to protect the camera. We will also have lots of warm clothing available for the actors and crew.
  • We have to makes sure we finish filming by 5pm as otherwise the footage will be too dark and will appear grainy. We also do not want the actors to become tired.
  • We will all make sure that we arrive on time and are organised, as we have a strict shooting schedule that needs to be kept to - if there is a problem getting somewhere on time we will make sure we contact each other in some way.
  • As we are outside in a public place we have to make sure that there are no members of the public in our shots, so we may have to wait for them to leave our location before we continue shooting. We will also have to be careful that no other voices can be heard whilst filming as then the creepy atmosphere will not be as effective.
  • As there is a chance that the location could change in some way, due to any possible problem e.g. a tree falling over; we have to try and film everything as well as possible on the first shoot so that continuity errors are less likely.
  • We will remember to charge the camera's battery, and each member of the team will check that they have their allocated piece of equipment before arriving at or leaving the location. This will reduce the chance of anything being lost/forgotten. If there is an accident (which I'm sure there won't be!) we will inform the teachers as soon as possible and try to fix the problem together.
