Planning

This week I have begun to plan my shoot. To complete a successful film production I will need to: 

• Brainstorm all of my ideas, then shortlist the more appropriate and ideal ideas to base my music video on. 
• Organise locations, and finalise agreements of dates and ensure that all of my actors know where and when the shoot will begin.
• Get all the mise en scene sorted and ready for shooting. For example, getting all of the props and costumes ready for the shoot. Also, I would need to get permission for using and borrowing instruments from either college or friends. 
• Get all of the actors who I would want to film in the shot. 
• Storyboard all of the shots I want in my music video. Also add timings for each shot and link them to the video (rhythmic editing). 
• Risk assess the area for safety measures. 
• Organise using equipment from college for the shoot, and take away a camera to practise and get used to the focus lens etc.
