Filming schedule and risk assessment - Miss Georgiou

It is important to have filming schedules with in thrillers because they help organise and structure the co-ordination of the film. As a group we thought that it was important to have a structured plan of what we were going to do.

For example our filming schedule consisted out of different times in which we would shoot each angle. For example at 4pm we were to begin filming the sequence of the girl getting ready and also an establishing shot of the street so that the audience can gather and interpretation of the urban build of the area. Secondly we would record the scene when the audience see her interacting with water, we would all have a understanding of how each sequence would be filmed and also at what times each should be shot. We believed that if a strict filming schedule was implemented in our clip then it would eliminate any possibility for mistakes. Then we would film the short scene when the girl is walking down the street, we planned as a group to stick to our schedule to make sure that we were spending a sufficient amount of time on each scene. After we would film the sequence of the girl walking into the forest towards the lake. Next we would film the remaining scenes left in our clip. After we thought we had completed everything we would go through our recordings to see where we feel needs improving, this would help our thriller clip as there will be less mistakes and will flow more easily.

As a whole I feel as though the filming schedule provided our group with a sense of clarity amongst all of the people involved in the film. Filming schedules make films efficient as they're able to glance at the schedule and see when they need to film each scene of the play. It is also less time consuming as the people involved are working quickly to ensure that the film is completed on time.
