Pre-production

Hello first year students,


Reminder deadline for pre-production is 04/12/15 any uploads to the blog after this day will not be marked.


Mark scheme




 1.Present pre-production to a quality that reflects near professional standard.
–This can be done on-line via a blog, in a A4 ring-binder (with a contents page). All work should be word processed (storyboard excluded) and should be presented to the best of your ability.
2.Generate throughout and comprehensively detailed pre-production.
–This can be achieved through completing the full amount of pre-production dependent on your independent project. We will cover this on the following slide.
3.Apply pre-production to a specific media production.
–Ensuring that the pre-production matches up to your production. There should be similarities present and it should be obvious that you have followed your pre-production when creating your product.   




List of pre-production required
  • Storyboard
  • Location scouting (for each location you film at)
  • Risk assessment (for each location you film at)
  • Cost of production - actual cost as well as proposed costs
  • Schedule for each days shoot
  • Cast + Crew List
  • Materials list (what you need)
  • Legal and ethical (talent release. permission to use soundtrack)
  • Codes of practice - how your production would like with OFCOM
There is a variety of pro-forma available to you, which you can decide between. You could also make your own, there is no requirement on this.
