Photograhs for filming

This photo shows one of the props that we used to film a scene that is taken for the orginal from Alice in Wonderland.

I made the wallpaper below, as origanally, I was going to use this paper and create our own dolls house appearance. However, I felt this wouldn't have give the same effect as actually using a dolls house in itself. 

This was the tree that I was orginally going to use for one of the first scenes. However, speaking to sean (the other member in my group) felt that this wouldnt be right on camera, as we needed a single tree by itself.

This is the tree that we used for the actual filming. This was a single old looking tree that we both felt would be the right prop for the music video.



Avaliable Filming

As a group, we decided that filming in the school premises was the best option as there was no travelling needed but also we could all meet up easily without any problems. Along with decideding that in school would be best, i suggested that after school could also be the best possible option as we were not ristircted to the filming time. Another reason, is that everyone was avaliable on the majority of days along with Amelia. 


However, due to half term starting next week, we are restricted on the time that we can film. The premises of scholl will be open to the students which we shall take up the chance when possible, but due to the fact that the other members of the group could already have commitments, we might have to leave the filming to after hald term which leaves a lot of stress and urgency to the filming of the music video.

Timetable

To see when I am avaiable for filming, I have copied my timetable to place upon the blog to show the other members of my group when i am free. Also to compare mine with my group and the actress.

Filming Plan

So that filming would be more organised and structured, Saun created a step by step plan. This would also be useful when it came to editing.

Risk Assesment

Risk	Rating	Steps Taken	Action Taken
Tree Scene: Potential obstruction of pedestrian path way by the camera	Low	Warn passersby that a camera could potentially block their path way	Avoid the path when filming
Tea Party: Chipped cutlery Smashing a tea mug	Low Medium	Could potentially cut actress or person filming Could potentially cut actress or person filming with flints of china	Be cautious of the props that could cause danger Step away from mug when smashed Warn a member of staff before filming, in case of any danger happens during filming
