Planning- Health and Safety
When planning filming there are various health and safety risk that we need to take into consideration. Each location poses its different threats and we must overcome.
Football stadium
- There are thousands of people at a football game . we therefore need to try to avoid the crowd whilst filming them. To do this we have discovered various places where we can film safely where there will not be lots of people. ( see Recce of location specific)
- The locations we have chosen to film does not provide any electrical power source to charge cameras. we will therefore have to take various fully charged battery packs with us when we film.
Train Station
- A train station is obviously a very dangerous place . the station we have chose to film at is very small which makes it even more dangerous. we can reduce this risk by filming at the station at off peak times the allow ourselves more space.
- to also eliminate this risk we have spoken to the station manager of ' Drayton park station' and let him know the dates we will be filming.
Around Finsbury park
- in this location we are mainly using tracking shots of the main character running. we therefore have to use moving equipment like trolleys or skateboards. the locations we have choose have smooth pavements or smooth bicycle tracks which will reduce the risk of injury.
Planning - Casting
During are casting process for our film opening we auditioned 3 people who we felt would be appropriate for the role of ' DAN '. We gave them a section of the script and asked them to preform there interpretation of it. Another factor we had to consider when casting was the actors availability.
We finally choose BEN COURTNEY to play the role of 'DAN'
# = This is where we will try various different techniques to try and create a steady tracking shot. we will test out shopping trolleys , skate boards and various other things. I will post the results of this test.
*= Arsenal play west ham at emirates stadium in finsbury park London. This is where we will achieve are crowd shots.
