Notes:

- These are pictures of our main location that we will be filming at.

- We have chosen to film in this location as are film features a chase scene in the woods and we have  found many different areas of this forest that would suit the chase scene. Also, this location is not located near any roads so it would be perfect for us to use as we plan of making use of the ambient sound around the area to create suspense.

WhatsApp Group

In order for our group to communicate outside of college and our time in class. We decided to make a WhatsApp group.

As shown in the photos above, we have discussed things such as possible film ideas, as well as camera shots and sound.

This group was also used when discussing about things such as possible actors for our short film.

- Decided which roles we were to take in the production of our short film

- We talked about specific characteristic that our ators should have and began deciding who could be possible actors for our short film.

- We started to create our storyboard and discuss what shots are to be used in certain scenes.

- We also conducted more research into how scripts are commonly written and based our script off our storyboard.

- We then decided on two possible locations to use and started doing risk assessments and call sheets to analyse what can go wrong when filming and decide when we should start.
