Production: Schedule (UPDATED)

During my production i have also produced some production schedules, i used them to organize which days i was filming and list the location and props needing.

This sheet is very similar to the content you would find in a call sheet but i created them as a different document then my call sheet just to keep things simple. I have also detailed on them the reasons behind not filming on dates i had previously planned to film on.


PS- Week Starting 22nd November


Production: Production Notes UPDATED

Another document i produced during the course of this project are production notes, these notes detail the different shots i intend of filming at locations and the props, location within location and other information. I produced notes for the shoot at Edwin and Anna's house and for the Jock shoot at school. (The jock shoot notes can be found here (Look at the bottom of the post))

Edwin Production Notes

Anna Prodction Notes

Production: Storyboards (UPDATED)

"Storyboards are graphic organizers such as a series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence," Quoted from Wiki page Storyboards.

I have created storyboards for my resubmission.

(They isn't a storyboard for one of the 2 endings as i have embedded it in a previous post so look here)

SB - Part 1

SB- Part 2

SB - Part 3

Production: Call Sheets (UPDATED)

During the production of my resubmission, i have had to re film my film.
And to make this a lot easier for myself and to speed up the process i have used call sheets and shot lists.

A call sheet is used as a organisation device to keep a production organized. For a full on production for a feature length film a call sheet could contain information such as nearest hospital or resturants and phone numbers of all the top crew and cast.

Below is a example call sheet i found on google.



My call sheet is very very simple and you could call it more of a shot list. As all my call sheet contains is the name of the location and the shots i intend to film thier aswell as the name of the cast thier.
I have created one for each of the 3 big shoots i had.

Winter Submission Revised Idea & Podcast (UPDATED)

I have scanned in page on which i wrote my revised idea for my winter submission, it is subject to change during the filming and editing process.

Quite often i have come up with more then one idea for a certain section and with the ending i have gone with idea 2 & 3. If you want to know more about my original idea, have a look at my blog post.

Revised Idea p.1

Revised Idea p.2

Revised Idea p.3

I have also recorded a podcast detailing the changes from my first submission to my second. I created the podcast as a video and uploaded it to YouTube so i could add annotations.

Promotional Blog's (UPDATED)

Often with a film release they will be behind the scenes promotional information. In our current post modern society the most common form of this could be a promotional blog.
This way fans who want to find out more about the film can, the blogs can contain photos, videos and usually a documentation of the production of the film.



Peter Jackson's  Latest Epic The Hobbit (2012) has its own blog..

http://thehobbitmovieblog.blogspot.com/

The blog is probably written by a member of the production team and the blog tracks the development of the film, with video clips and images uploaded onto the blog such as pictures of them building the set for the film.




I decided to create a blog for my own film. I decided to make the blog appeal to a my target audience so its not a very professional blog and its very very informal.

http://www.officialnotachance.blogspot.com/  (Still adding parts to it)



In it i have uploaded some of my videos and production work so that any viewer can found out more about my film, as well as track my day to day work on the film.
I have also included some tools that make my blog feel more like a real media example, such as a gadget where the viewers can vote on who i should star as one of my characters. (disclaimer: these actors are just examples)


As well as producing a blog for the film i have created a blog for my production company "Limited Edition"

http://www.limitededitionproduction.blogspot.com/

On this blog i have written posts on different videos i have produced in the last year as well as created a bio for the company.
