Pre-production Documentation

- The script or screenplay, is a written document which contain the dialogue within the film. It is considered a main component of pre production. The dialogue is broken down into specific scenes were locations, casting and directions are included. The script is the responsibility of the director, its primary use is to direct actors and actress's dialogue wise.

- As camera man the shot list was my responsibility. It includes the shots throughout the film which i have choose. Deciding on these shots came some difficulty, for i wanted to put across a more diverse collection of shots, however noting the shots down is much more simple than performing them. So my thought process had to have some element of realism. The shot list contains the type of shots, location, scene number, shot number and a short description of what is present within the shot. By using the shot list as a guide and not completely literal i was able adapt and interchange shots to my preference.

Costume and set design is carried out by the production designer. The production designer takes all mis en scene aspects into consideration and determines how certain elements such as characters and locations will appear visually.

The Location recce contains general locations in which the production will be held. The recce includes a panoramic visual of the location, in which the whole location is displayed. This further includes the availablilty of the location for preference, power points in the location and various other details such as permission grants.

Technical recce is an overview of the set were filming will commence. For technical reasons it displays the general structure of the room including major objects or obstructions. Primarily it displayed power points in the room, mainly for the use of artificial lighting in the room

 The risk assements lists any risk which has the possibilty of occuring within the production process. This is necessary for health and safety reasons and is carried out by the director of light and sound.
