Filming Schedule
A filming schedule is a table that states when, where and essentially how each shot in a production will be filmed. It is important to have when creating a film sequence as it ensures organisation and certainty in what is due to happen and when. Filming is also done in specific time brackets and it makes it easier to film as it is clear what has been filmed already, what needs to be filmed and any changes that may have to be made. Furthermore, it allows group members to be prepared with what needs to be brought to the location of filming, for example, iconography. It's also easy to use if we have to re-film certain shots for any particular reason so we are aware of what the shot is, who it features and what we will need to film it. Therefore, this makes filming a lot more easier and more time efficient so that no time is carelessly wasted.
We have followed our filming schedule when filming, however, just a few of the dates we had originally planned for certain shots to be filmed had to be changed. This was due to difficulty in getting the group all free to film at the same time and so we had to substitute other days in for these particular shots. Therefore, changes had to be made, however, the shots and all filming was still completed successfully. Next time we will ensure that this does not happen by finalising dates on which group members can all attend. This will cause a less of delay to our filming and a more productive day of filming. Further reason as to why some of our filming schedule was not followed was because our narrative changed due to lack of availability of actors. The first few shots had to be changed as they were part of the original narrative that we had come up with, not the newer one where Chloe's friends are not included. These shots were then changed to have different content with Chloe on the phone to her mum so, this changed the filming schedule. Next time, we will make sure to finalise our narrative and who will be available at certain times to ensure no time is wasted during our production.
