Homework - Friday 5th November

Over half term you should all be filming for your practical production. If you do not begin filming now then it is unlikely you will be able to produce a product that reflects your true ability. Please remember to:

• Use your production schedule as guidance
• Think about the location (is it easily accessible?, do you have permission?)
• Time (do you have enough daylight/nightlight?)
• Lighting (how have you lit the scene?)
• Actors (are they available for shooting?)
• Continuity (are the actors in the same position for each shot/are they wearing the right clothes?).
• Equipment (do you have all the cameras/tripod/props you need?)

Lastly please be careful with all the equipment and have fun!
