Group 8: Second Shoot Planning

• Today we plan to do our second shoot as a group.
• After trying to edit the current footage we have realised that we need to shoot our first shots in the video, to give ourselves as structure and edit in chronological order.
• Therefore we are going to shoot our house scene, this will potentially be the most difficult scene to film. This is because we have to shoot the domestic violence scene.
• This will be the most difficult simply because the domestic violence shoot, will have to be done in a variety of angles and movements. This has the potential to go both horribly wrong or being a huge success.
• The shots that we are going to use too emphasise and highlight the importance of this scene will include a vast amount of tracking shots as small amounts are vital to make it look professional and make the shots more interesting. Some of the different angles that we need to incorporate to better our production will include birds eye views and low angle to give different perspectives on the story and establish character exposition.
• Therefore we have to plan our shoot specifically, which Jacques has noted in his exercise book.
• Several other shots we aim to take are the boy and his mother, creating the initial relationship between them in which we base our whole production on.
• As well as this we need to take an abundance of establishing shots, in order to set the scene or act as filler shots if necessary.
• Finally we will also need to take shots of Noah, again planning how we are to initially introduce our protagonist to the audience in a way that will create verisimilitude.
