The Planning Process

Roles of the group
It was important to organise and plan who would be undertaking particular roles before filming anything at all.

After some group discussion, we decided that I would be the woman acting in the film, mainly because I didn't have the opportunity to appear in our AS piece, which therefore made the roles of the group much fairer.

It was then decided that Mark would be the prime person to edit the film, even though all four of us would still have a reasonable input. Because of his knowledge of computer technology and software, we thought that it would be best if he was put in charge of finding the institiutions, distributors and titles that would appear in our film.

Jen and Lauren on the other hand would be the main two people who would be in charge of filming and organising the make up. This meant that they would have to complete some research into making the bruising and scarring look real, which consequently meant that Youtube videos would have to be studied and used as part of the research. They would also have to undertake the responsibility of taking the photographs for our poster and magazine.

Planning process
One of the main things we had to produce as a group was a film schedule in order to know what we were doing and when we were filming.

Our filming schedule

Our filming schedule was something that really helped when it came to our organsiation as a group. The columns of our schedule included the dates of when we would film and also when we would spend time working on other parts of our promotional package. We also decided to note down what equipment and props we needed when it came to filming on Thursday 6th, 13th and 19th of January. This meant that we were able to arrange who would take responsibility for certain aspects of our filming and work together as a group.
