Reconstruction of a Media Text - Production Plan

We intend to stick by the production plan as it ensures we have enough time to successfully shoot and edit the chosen sequence of the music video. We have decided to shoot the relevant sequence quite early into the video production as the editing will take the majority of the time to accurately reconstruct the video. Here is the following production plan we have created to manage our time properly:

Filming and Editing production plan in detail

We decided the most appropriate time to film the shots from the music video would be during our timetabled media lesson. The location involved the grounds at the back of the college building which assembles a forest like appearance, perfect for the setting we wanted to use. We will shoot the appropriate shots involving this setting on 03/10/12 at 9:00 am. Although people are appointed for certain roles during the reconstruction of this text we thought it would be best if all members of the group would be present during the filming to contribute different ideas and help out. Myself, Claudia and Tasha will be filming the shots and directing Olivia in making her feel comfortable with what she is supposed to do. The second stage of our filming is going to be done on 02/10/12 at 2:00 pm again during lesson time. This time the shots will be staged in the green filming room in the media department to capture the appropriate image connoting a dark and misty atmosphere. The props we intend to use include Studio lamps and torches to make our video as similar to the actual music video as possible. The cast is solely Olivia and the Camera operators will be Claudia, Tasha and myself again although all members of the group will be present at the time of shooting. Our final piece of shooting will take place In a specific area of the college grounds; the pond. This is to basically gain 2 seconds  of the music video which is briefly introduced during the first minute of the music video. We will do this final piece of filming on 10/10/12 at 9:15 am and the same roles will apply from previous filming periods. The editing part of the production plan will be continuously added too during the 2 weeks we have to complete this project giving every member something to contribute to the finished product (Although Megan and Ella will be mainly making the decisions and focusing on its production during their free time).
