Contingency Plan

Name: Bradley Williams & Nicolas Orozco
Production: “Express Yourself”

Potential problems and how to overcome these problems:
If the leisure centre closes or the basketball court is out of bounds we will have to get access to another leisure centre. There is a leisure centre 5minutes away from the Robert clack leisure centre and so if need be we can try to gain access to this leisure centre for filming. There is also a leisure centre one bus journey away, which we may be able to use if we gain correct permission. If the playground becomes out of bounds there are two other playgrounds along Dagenham avenue, which are open to the public, which we could use. There is also a basketball court across the road from these playgrounds.

Risk Assesment

Title: “Express Yourself”
Producer: Bradley Williams & Nicolas Orozco 
Director: Bradley Williams & Nicolas Orozco

Major Issues:

Filming at:

Playground near All Saints School
Robert Clack Leisure Centre
Filming at these locations we may come across various issues. At the playground there are apparatus’ which could potentially be dangerous if used incorrectly, also when they are wet they are dangerous even if they are used normally. We will be filming in the basketball court and so there will be basketballs flying about, we will have to ensure these do not damage the filming equipment.

Solutions:

To avoid these risks we will have to ensure we stay off any roads when filming outdoors, and when filming in the playground we will stay clear of apparatus’ in wet conditions and make sure we use them correctly when the conditions are safe. At the basketball court we will have to film from a safe distance to avoid any damage to the filming equipment. These solutions will help us to stay clear of the risks associated with the filming of the music video.

These are screenshots of the editing process of the video. We uploaded the footage we filmed and we are now matching it to the music, this screen shot on the left is a still shot from the captured footage, this may be used in the intro of the music video.




This screen shot on the right is of everything we captured from the camera when we uploaded. These will be cut and moved together to make the music video look much more realistic.

Filming - Day 2

On monday we went out to;the playground near all saints school, which is one of the sets of our music video, and filmed a few scenes for the video. We were able to film multiple shots, which will be used for the intro to our music video and in various points throughout it. It was snowing on this day and so we decided used this and made sure we were able to catch the snow in a few shots before it disappeared. We used two 'actors', to lip sync and act out the lyrics, when filming these shots. Once we had finished filming outside we went inside to film a different set of shots. We did this in our school common room which was another of the sets for our video. We filmed one of the actors playing a pool match. However it was staged so we could get the shots that we needed to ensure we used the set to our full advantage. I believe we were able to express our vision for the song through these shots. We will film more scenes at a later time to further enhance our music video.

Filming - Day 1

On wednesday we went out to begin filming. We went to one of our first location, which was the playground. The day was foggy and so we used this to our advantage and included this in the filming. We filmed for the some of the beginning of the song. We began with filming a long shot of the fog and slowly zooming out to make it seem like the playground was appearing out of the fog, this gave the video a natural effect. This footage will be uploaded and edited and then we will continue to film more of our video.
