Production diary for my film

Production diary for my film

My short film including one actor and one location will be filmed in an abandoned warehouse giving an exclusive and chilling view of living life homeless sleeping rough in a cold location in the middle of nowhere and the struggles that a person who has nobody to call upon can encounter on a daily basis. I hope that the short film will give an insight into the true loneliness of a person living on the streets and really engage with the audience and give a real sense of emotion.

Week 1

I have reviewed locations for filming and have asked for permission to film on a few peoples premises. I have also began to make a start to the script to give me a good idea of how it will all flow when on set.

week 2

i have competed my script that i needed to write and have found a public piece of land that i am able to film on due to a deal not being able to be forged between the owners of the land i was proposing to film on.

week 3 

I have just recently completed my storyboards so that myself and the crew have a clear indication of what we need to carry out once on set so that the filming of the scene flows and is done with relative ease

week 4

Today i had to carry out a risk assessment to ensure that myself and the crew are going to be in safe hands when filming on set and that all risk factors are weighed up and put into levels of severity helping me take precautions to ensure safety when on set.

Week 5

Today was filming !!! the production was carried out in just under 2 hours and everything went to plan capturing some great shots leaving me excited to piece this work together and see the outcome of such hard work from myself and my crew members .

week 6
nothing much completed this week just ensuring that the footage is in a safe folder and on my desktop ready for future weeks work
week 7
time to edit not one of my strong points within my skill set but piece by piece the work slowly formulated into a fantastic piece of work that I am  very proud  of . the music flowed with the film and the whole film gives off the outlook i wanted it to so overall i am very pleased.

week 8
final checks on the quality and the  audio of the film ensuring that it is to a high enough standard




week 9

the bulk of the work is complete and all that remains is the small task of exporting the finished film.
