Pre production planning

Before i began to film i did some more planning just to make the filming process and easy as possible and to make sure that no mistakes were made and every thing got done. The things which i did was:

Storyboards:

In the storyboards there are hand drawn pictures of what is going to happen in each shot. Next to the picture its says what action is going to happen in each shot, what the lighting is going to be and also if there is any sound or dialogue. I found this very useful because it let me lay out all the shots and give me a better insight of what is going to happen rather than just turning up and not knowing what to film. Also it enabled me to start planning editing, because i had to think about sound lighting.

Shot List:



In the shot list it said what is going to happen in each shot. Also what sort of shot it actually is like a close up. I made this after making the storyboard. This will be helpful when filming, because it will save us carrying around all of the storyboards, and also make sure that i do not forget to film something and then have to go back and film it. 

Shooting schedule:
The shooting schedule basically is a plan of when i am going to film and checking to see weather the actress is also available at that time as well. The shooting schedule will also have noted down what props will be needed on which day, and also what equipment and costumes.
