MAIN Post 8: Pre-Production Documentation


Before we began looking for a location to film the scenes, we came up with a mise-en-scene design in order for us to follow. This shows a mixture of different pictures that can highlight specific parts in the mise-en-scene that we want to put across. The below picture shows this:

 














My group and I produced a location recce of the bedroom that Sophie and Paige would be in whilst shooting them in the scene, this location recce highlights the power in the room and the lighting.
Below is a copy of our groups location recce of the bedroom Sophie and Paige are in at the beginning of Behind Blue Eyes:

















As well as planning what the set design would look like with all the pictures together above, we also put together what we wanted the props and costumes to be and look like. The costumes would highlight what Sophie, Paige and Alan would be wearing and the props are mainly what we would be using to pan over at the beginning of the opening sequence. Below are the props and costume ideas:
















My group and I produced a shot list for the opening sequence of Behind Blue Eyes, this simply shows the location of the shot, the scene the shots in and a description of the shot itself. By producing this shot list we could refer back to it whilst filming all the different shots.
Below is a copy of our groups shot list of the opening sequence to Behind Blue Eyes:






The script simply highlights who says what and the order in which the lines are said. This script contains the voiceovers said by the male in the opening sequence as well.
Below is a copy of our group's script of the opening sequence to Behind Blue Eyes:


















We produced a storyboard to illustrate each shot in each scene, this had a visual drawing of what the shot would look like and it also highlighted the character movement, length of and where the shot would be.
The storyboard is shown below:










We carried out a risk assessment showing the potential risks throughout filming, risks that could've injured somebody or a piece of equipment.
Below is a copy of our groups risk assessment, highlighting the risks in each scene and a way of avoiding this risk:





In order to get our opening sequence filmed, we created a shooting schedule of when we were all free in order to get the scenes shot. Our groups shooting schedule consisted over two days, described what scenes would be filmed, what times we would film and this is show below:

















We also had a short crew list, so that everyone in the group knew what they were doing and what their roles were in producing the opening sequence.
Katie-Mai Taylor: Actor of Sophie, Editor
Alexandra Mullins: Actor of Paige, Editor
Bobbi Rhodes: Camera Operator, Producer, Editor
Charley Daugherty: Camera Operator, Director






As shown in post 4a, below is a copy of the Behind Blue Eyes synopsis, this simply highlights the main points in the entire film. It also gives an audience that reads it the background information on the film and the general plot.
