Filming My Rushes Using my Planning Documents

• Shooting Schedule - My shoot schedule helped me keep up with where and when I am suppost to be. It told me what days I am filming and what location, this helped me during the process as it made it a lot easier to make sure everything was filmed in time for me to start editing. This also gives me a quick list of the main props and costumes that are needed on the location. Below you can see me looking at my shooting schedule. This helps as I know what location to go to and what I need to shoot.

• Storyboard - When on the location I can use my storyboards to help set up a shot. This will help me save time on shooting which means I have more time editing. Also by using my storyboards it means I wont have to think about each shot I can just set it up and see if it looks good. If for some reason the shot doesn't work as I wanted it to I can always change it or if I get a better idea I can use that. This is the good thing about stroyboards, they are there to help but they are not set so that I have to do it the same if I want to change a shot. Below you can see me using my storyboards to help me set up the shot.

• Props, Costume, Make Up - This planing documnet tells me the props and costumes that are needed. It goes in to more detail about why and what it is used for. This will help explain to any crew members why I need that prop, the costumes are also explained to why we need them. 

• Location Visit - The location visit helped me decided what locations to use and why they would work well for my music video. This document gets me to think about the locations and how praticle it would be to film in, it also gets me to think about what are the positives and negatives are of each location I chose.

• Treatment - My treatment helped me summaries everythng I neeeded. It tells me the locations im using, the budget, the structure of my music video and more. By helping me create a budget for my music video I know how much Im going to spend and need to create the music video. This is an important part as I don't want to spend to much on the music video, so by budgeting my self I can try and keep it quite cheap. Below is my treatment:

• Proposal - In my proposal I sum up what my music video is about. This planning document helped me create my storyboards. By doing my proposal it made me write down in detail what my music video is about and what the lyrics mean. This then alloowed me to think about what I want the audience to see in the music video. When looking at the lyrics the phrase, "Strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8" appeared and this made me think that the women is controlling him. This then made me think of a puppet being controlled which controls the artist. This is now the main narrative of my music video, and by creating my proposal helped me come up with the idea. Here is my proposal:

• Risk Assessment - My risk assessment will help keep me safe. This will tell me the dangers that are around me. By having a risk assessment I can keep aware for all the dangers, where as if I had to find the dangers on the day it would waste my time where I could be filming. Here is my risk Assessment:
