Shoot Planning

Shoot Dates:
  • Half term break (as agreed by group)
  • Tuesday 26th February (Groups 1)
  • Thursday 28th February (Groups 2)

To make sure you are ready for the shoot, have collaborated with your production team and prepared for your own production role you should complete the following tasks as a group and individually:

Rehearse your actors and block the scene(s).
  • This will require you using a phone to take photos of the blocking.
  • The cinematographer will be taking photos
  • The sound designer / editor will be doing one of two things:
    1. Working with the cinematographer to place the actors on their marks
    2. Working with the actors to discuss the action & behaviour, their lines and mood.
Test your ideas.
  • Cinematographer: test (framing, DofF, filter, lighting, lenses…)
  • Sound Designer: practice Foley recording or editing / composing temp tracks.
  • Editor: test edits / colour correction.

This should be done for independent study and your ideas should be based on examples taken from your shared vision document.
