Planning: Pre-Production Paperwork (Miss Begum)

Pre-Production Paperwork

Prior to creating our thriller we had to complete legal documents in order to ensure safety. The paperwork included a production schedule, location reece, a risk assessment, client release form and location release form. Emine was in charge of the paperwork and distributing the roles as she is the producer. 

Production Schedule:
A production schedule is a summary of exactly what is going to happen in your filming schedule. It includes times and dates of when certain cast and crew members are going to meet and film certain scenes. This organises the team/production to know exactly when and where to meet and what equipment to bring. It also provides meaning and understanding. Emine took on this role as she is producer and knew how to organise the group.


Location Reece:

A location reece is a summary of the location that you have decided to use for your thriller. This explains the details of the location and how to access it by various transport. We included visual information and discussed our reasons on why we picked this specific location. Emine also took on this role as she was able to access the location the easiest and knew the most about it.
































Risk Assessment:
A risk assessment is a legal document which analyses the location and is able to identify what risks might arise and how you plan to overcome them. We included every risk that could potentially arise in order to try and avoid them. We also came up with solutions to these risks so we are prepared if a problem does occur. This is extremely important to the paper-work as it could cause major difficulties which is why it has to be understood before hand. Carlie took on this role as she is most responsible and knows the location well.

Client Release Form:
A client release form is a legal document that discusses the terms and agreements of any actors in your thriller. We gave this form to all three of our characters in which they had to agree to the rules of our production. The form also analysed the location and risks which could potentially occur in order to make the actors aware of any problems. This makes it easier for the actors to know what they're committing to. I was responsible for this role as I know the actors well and was able to distribute the forms easily.

Location Release Form:
The location release form is a legal document that discusses the terms and agreements for the company/council/people that are allowing you to film in their location. This document should be given company/council/people to show that you have agreed to terms and conditions. We gave this form to the owner of the house which we are filming in to understand the rules we expect from them and how we will use their location. This is important as they understand what problem could occur and how we decide to solve it. I was also responsible for this role as I was able to access the owner of the property easily.
