What Is In This List:
- Proposal
- Script
- Storyboard
- Location Scouting
- Location Release Form
- Risk Assessment
- Stripboard
- Shooting Script
- Proposal
The proposal was the first initial thing I completed, I thought it would be important to promote my film, shorten the story down to a few sentences to make sure it made sense in a narrative. It includes all characters and cast who have agreed to help with the film with both acting and camera work. The proposal is used to try and show off your film, how it was/or will be crafted and all the details of it and so this is what I did. Cramming in as much that needed to be included.
- Script
The Script was composed on Celtx, a free scriptwriting software that was easy enough to access and right up my film on. The script was completed and printed out so I could personally annotate where was needed to be updated from my personal changes. The script will be handed out to all who is apart of the movie so they can revise their lines and what actions take place.
- Storyboard
The storyboard is all about envisioning how you want the scene to play out, and drawing it onto a sheet to use for later filming. In this example, I have used the very first scene, so i have thought very carefully about how i want to grasp the audiences attention, in this case it is a high tension chase scene however we dont initially know what the main protaganist is running from, so it will be an entertaining viewing for whoever is watching it or even understanding reading on the paper.
- Location Scouting
Location Scouting was fairly straight forward, i had already envisioned where i was going to film and both were easy enough to gather a few details and keep myself covered. I only needed two sheets because i will be mainly filming on public property where anyone is free to use camera equipment
- Location Release Form
Completing the release forms was fairly similar to the location scouting as all details had already been sorted so i only needed one signature from a college lecturer for his filming consent, which is all the release form is used for so i have physical copy that i have every right to film where i have chosen.
- Risk Assessment
The risk assessment is extremely important in film as it highlights the key dangers in filming and helps organise ways to prevent any harm coming to those involved filming, for example i will be filming in a woods next to a river so i have to safety hazards straight off the bat with a list of others, however since theyve been highlighted we can arrange how to prevent anything happening.
- Stripboard
The stripboard is basically my shooting schedule, what days i will film and what time i will film them, with a list of everything that i will cover on that day, it is really convinient to write your ideas so your plans can be professionally and carefully planned and filming wont take as long, with everyone knowing what they will be doing and how will be in what scene if needed.
- Shooting Script (Personally Annotate)
This was a part of the script that i printed off and personally annotated over as i wanted this scene in particular to have a certian look and what techniques i will use, so now when i have all my scripts together i can look at this sheet and know for in future how i want my scene to play out.
