What could go wrong

-Equipment getting damaged. -actors not wearing correct costume/outfit.

Solutions to the problems


+take care when using them (e.g. put camera around neck). +make sure they know and understand the importance of their outfit, bring spares for just incase. +film just after peak hours, film by parked cars +film on one of the not often used paths, wait for them to pass, get their permission to be in the opening +ask the day before if they can still make it, find a replacement (other producer Daniel or myself step in). +make sure the camera charges the night before, bring spare charged battery +double check with parents & aunt if the house will be available to film the day before, constantly remind them of the dates and times needed

-lack of cars. -too many 'passers by'.

-necessary actors not being able to film on the day (may get ill, have a different demanding activity etc) -camera dies/ not charged

-location may not be available to film

-run out of time before it gets too dark/late to film

+ensure we are quick and efficient without timing, organise the time we have well, shoot the most important scenes first, use darkness to our advantage to create silhouette shots

-bad weather, too bad to film

+check the weather the week before, bring necessary equipment to prevent damage (e.g. large umbrellas)

-someone (myself or an actor) arrives late to location -actor may become bored or fatigued when filming -may not be able to get a school camera for the days needed

+plan to meet slightly earlier than filming time to allow a few minutes if anyone's late +film in small chunks, allow breaks, bring snacks +book the cameras for the days needed
