However this is open for public use.
public use – no permission is
required.

Permissions
Due to area being public use – I am able to use the
area however, there are limitations to having loud
sound/speakers etc. which I will make sure will not
happen, so I am able to use the space.

Suitability / shots for production (scene numbers)

Scene 7 – Use for all shots in the scene.
Lighting information:
As the location of the area,
I will be shooting in either
direct sunlight, or cloudy
weather depending on the day.
Solutions:
- I will need to check
weather conditions
as soon as that will
be possible (a week
before. This will be
widely dependent for
optimal weather use
for the day of
filming. If not, I
will schedule
another day to be
able to film.
- Direct sunlight can
be difficult to deal
with since it can
create dark shadows
on the face etc. Or
can be harsh. I will
use a light bounce
with different
covers on it such as
gold, silver, and
white to help
diffuse the light
and add some lost
light onto actor’s
faces.
Sound information: Solutions:
Filming outside can present - Wind: I will
some challenges since it is
outside.
- First one being, wind.
Wind will be dependent
on the day. It can
disrupt sound and
continuity if something
knocks over.
- Another issue is that
the location is in a - Other disrupting
public space, I have
chosen an area where it
is quieter, and away
from the walkway which
can have potential
disruption to plains,
people talking and
walking, and other
animals.
- (leading on from second
point) Another issue
this can impose is if a
person is seen in the
shot and therefore has
clothing that is seen to
be made in the 22nd
century.
- I will make sure
research into ways
that I can set up
microphones etc. to
gain optimal
strength in good
quality sound. Mic
set up will be
really essential
regardless of
sounds: This is
something that if it
happens, I will
schedule the time
for retakes during
that day to make
sure that I have
time if some takes
don’t work well the
first time. Thus,
making it essential
to make sure I don’t
have to have another
reshoot day which
can be quite
difficult to
schedule if it is
left too late.
(Speaking from
previous experience)
that there are no
other people in
shot, even walking
far behind. This can
disrupt the idea of
setting for the film
which is super
important for the
film.
Power Information:
As there are no power
points/plugs outside.
Solutions:
Because of this issue, I
will make sure I have
spare batteries and
equipment if an issue
occurs. If I am in
desperate need, there
are nearby coffee shops
which does have plug
points to charge
equipment if needed.

Hazards: Solutions:
- Since I am filming away - As a part of a
