There are many logistics to be taken into
consideration when it comes to making our opening scene. The first logistic
will be the fact that the most part of our opening sequence takes place
outside. At this time of year, it’s dark out by 4:00, which means were going to
have to be sure we can get all of our filming completed before this time. We
worked around this by looking at what times each of us are free, and we have
all found out we can filmfrom 1:00 onwards on both Wednesdays and Thursdays.
The next logistic will be the actors reliability.
The best way we have of dealing with this is to get people to act who we think
will be reliable. Originally, we were thinking of getting our friends to ast,
but when we were looking into it, we arent positive they will be fully
reliable. After discussing in our group, we agreed to get people we might not
talk to, but are positive are reliable to act for our opening.
Another logistic will be the weather. The weather
will be a majour influence to the continuity of the opening. The problem is
that if we film no one day, and the weather is clear, but if we are required to
go back and refilm a certain scene another day for whatever reason, we will
need to be sure the weater is the same or similar to give a more conventionally
professional feel to the opening. A way we thought we could deal with this is
by making sure there was a wide range of days we were all able to film on, so
if we have to refilm, we have a range of dates to choose from.
Similar to the weather, there is also a possible
continuity problem whe it comes to the costume/ makeup too. The way we spoke
about dealing with this was to take a photo of each of the actors before the
first day of filming. These could then be used as reference for if a second day
of filming is required,as the photos can be used as a guide to assure that the
continuity of the opening is a s smooth as possible.
