Diary


 The Silhouette Man - TN1 productions

Date: 9/12/14
What did I do today?
Today, we decided what to base our story on and we combined elements of our individual ideas and came up with the idea of the Silhouette man. We also identified our target audience.
What am I going to do next?
We are going to start plan our pitch.


Date: 16/12/14
What did I do today?
Today, we planned and created our pitch on PowerPoint and then presented it. I was responsible for the section on budget and costs. Laolu was responsible for the film idea and research. Tamin did the locations and Clifford target audience.

What am I going to do next?
I will start the treatment and proposal for our film.




Date: 14/04/15
What did I do today?
Today, I finished the treatment and proposal, this was to show our reasons for our film idea including our target audience.
What did my team do today?
Tanim started the shot list, we decided we would use 21 shots, this was because we felt it would be a suitable amount to fill a short film.
Laolu started writing up the script so we could show the relationship between the two characters and to convey their different characteristics through dialogue.
Clifford started the recce of our location in Sidcup park in order to see if the locations were suitable and to see what the background noise was like as well as it find out if we were allowed to film there.
What am I going to do next?
I am going to start the storyboard


Date: 16/04/15
What did I do today?
I started to type the storyboard to show how the film would play out. This included the shot types, what happens, the duration and any audio that is heard in the shot.
What did my team do today?
Tanim started the document on our actors and why we choose them, this was to make sure we had suitable characters for the roles and to justify our choices.
Clifford started the risk assessment and took pictures in the location for the recce, this was in order to stay on top of any risks that could be involved in the film location. Also, he took photos to show the location.
Laolu finished the shot lost with Tanim and continued with the script. This was to ensure that the script was in line with the storyboard.
What am I going to do next?
I am going to take pictures and use photoshop to edit them.


Date: 21/04/15
What did I do today?
I took pictures with Tanim and Laolu using the shot types that I storyboarded and then used Photoshop to make them look hand drawn, this was to show the shot types in the storyboard.
What did my team do today?
Tanim completed the actor release forms so we had permission from the actors to use them in our film and put it online.
Lalou finished off the script.
Clifford took more pictures and completed the recce and then finished, he also finished the risk assessment and created the location permission form and started the production schedule and got one of our actors to sign the release form.


Date: 22/04/15
What did I do today?
I went back with Laolu and Tanim to take photos that I missed, this was because I needed to take more photos in landscape rather than portrait like I did on some shots.
What did my team do today?
Clifford went to recce our back up location, this was in case that we weren’t able to film in our planned location for any reason.
What am I going to do next?
Finish the Storyboard.
