Cast and Crew

I have made a list of the cast and crew involved in the production. This will help the crew know what their job involves and I have added the contact details to be able to ask when the cast and crew are available.

Risk Assessment

I have completed a risk assessment of all the locations needed for the film. This will help prevent any incidents which would put the production behind schedule. A first aider will be on set at all times just incase there are any injuries.

I used this website to find a template to help me create a more professional risk assessment: https://www.filmsourcing.com/film-production-risk-assessment/

Permission Received

I have been given permission to film at Derwent Reservoir. This is important as I do not want anyone to confront me about and cause a problem. As I have mentioned in the previous post, you don't necessarily need filming permission if it is an area open to the public.

Permission Email Sent

I have found a useful website on 'how to get permission to film in a public place' by Sean Malone. The first point he makes is not to ask for filming permission, although this is risky it's unlikely that anyone will stop you. And if they do, you should move on and film somewhere else. Malone says that in the UK there are no laws to prevent anyone filming on public streets.

Not asking for permission is a risk that I am not willing to take. Even though it is a public area I have still asked for permission to prevent any problems while filming.

Here's a screenshot of the email that I sent.

Permissions

I am going to send emails asking for permission to film in these locations so that there aren't any problems when filming.

Script

I have created a script to give to the cast and crew to help them understand what goes on in the scenes. By using the 12-point Courier font I have made the script look more professional. This allows me to recognise how long the opening sequence will last as each page is typically one minute long.
