Location Planning
We have chosen the Co-op in Deeping. We have been given permission by their management (as you can see in the following email) to film in the shop when it is quite from customers. Thanks to their support and willingness to help we are able to use the majority of the store to get a wide range of shots.
Whilst in deeping we will also be filming in the local chip shop, The Boundary. This location will be used to create a similar effect to the co op; to turn the normal into the abnormal. We phoned them up and got permission to film from 6 O'Clock onwards as long as we are punctual. The artificial lighting in the chipy will allow us to film in the dark; additionally the neon lights will create an atmospheric effect.
We will also be filming at Hills and Holes in Barnack. We feel that it would be a suitable place to film because the landscape has peaques and troffs and creates a similar effect to moon craters and again; something normal that is turned abnormal.
We were also thinking of using Sam's car for bandshots. The morris minor would create quiter a retro vibe and create an iconic image. We are aming to use tightly framed shots. This takes influence from The Automotic's video where they are crammed in the back of their van.
Our final location will be 'the band room'. This is the practice room attatched to my garage. It is a good location because all of our instrumental props are in there and once empty we will have a room with big white walls which can give a clean effect if lit and framed correctly.

ReplyDeleteNiall – this is coming together really well. Still some tweaks needed to move to an A – largely based around how you production has developed since the first shoot – include the early footage that was later rejected. Say why.. Planning and research evidence is complete.
There is proficient research into similar products (try to explain how real promos have influenced your own work in terms of camerawork, editing, mise-en-scene) and a potential target audience (this is good – use of interviews – make sure you show how you have used their feedback to develop your ideas). You need more information about the conventions of your ancillaries tasks.
There is proficient work on shotlists, layouts, drafting, scripting or storyboarding. Try to include details of how you have developed your work – include the first shoot of performance and why it didn’t work) Show progress in all three tasks. Also you need to include drafts of ancillaries.
There is proficient organisation of actors, locations, costumes or props.
Time management is good.
There is proficient skill in the use of digital technology or ICT in the presentation. Work is well evidenced through a range of forms. Blog is well presented and uses a range of evidence.
There are proficient communication skills.
There is a good level of care in the presentation of the research and planning.
