planning- risk assessment

risk assessment-

There wont be many risks with in the making and organizing of our film, as we will be filming sensibly and safely, making sure that we do well and do not have anything going wrong. The risks that may occur would be things like cars being in the road, as our film  is located in an alley way which cars can access and come through, but we will prevent this by making sure the road is clear when we are filming. If any cars do come onto the road we will simply pause our filming and move to one side. Another risk could be when Ollie and Malcolm start to fight, they could accidentally hit each other. this will be prevented by being careful and safe as we have researched into stage fighting and know the correct way for the film to look as if they are hitting each other but really they are not, making it look realistic and brutal.

Sound

§  Started with music with the universal production

§  Sound Bridge logo

§  39 seconds in there is a dialogue ‘Hi Will, A package for you’ and a package drops to the desk.

§  42 seconds in there are clicking sounds coming from wills pen, suggest he is nervous about the package.

§  49 seconds in there is a voice over like a narrative/set up of the story

§  51 seconds in you can hear the sound of the papers coming out of the envelope

Dialogue is- 

I don't think anyone ever imagines

on their wedding day

they'll be part of the 46%

that doesn't live happily ever after. 

Will?

Just heard we got the Quaker Oats account.

Way to go.

You must be completely psyched.

Then again,

I never thought I'd spend my days,

             weeks and years working

in an advertising agency

trying to figure out how to get kids to eat

Cap'n Crunch instead of Froot Loops.

But Tuesdays and Fridays

are my favorite days.

I get out of work early, and I go pick up

my daughter, Maya, from school.

Now, it's a great feeling when you find

the right track to go with the day.

And today, I have found

the absolute perfect song.

             Bitches, they can kiss my...

             The other perfect song.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

But sometimes, no matter

how carefully you plan your playlist,

there is no right track for what awaits you.
