Group Task -Planning For Brighton

Planning for Brighton:

What locations do we need?

5 different locations will be used in Brighton being the Pier, the beach, shops, rock pools and the arcade. The broadness of all the locations will enable our group to gain a variety of different shots, giving us many new ideas.

What type of location?

Both exterior and interior locations will be utilised so therefore we gauge an understanding of the importance of filming in a variety of different environments, this will all help in leading up to our filming of the final piece as the ideas of what conditions to film in will be made clear.

What look are we going for?

In the final editing of the we would like to put it together in black and white which will give it an authentic look and also reinforces are rough idea of what we want in our final film. With our genre Hip-Hop a lot of shots are needed to implement a fast cutting rate with a variety of shot essential to making the filming as intriguing as possible.

Will we film in black and white?

Yes, I think we will as this gives it a unique viewing with black and white also emphasising age with black and white further connoting being historic and old.

What is our bad weather contingency?

The bad weather contingency will affect the whether we film in an exterior or interior location. If bad weather does prevail the likelihood is that we will film in an interior location as this prevents the bad weather having any true effect on the overall filming.

What props will we need to take with us?

I don’t think props will be of that importance in Brighton as of the vast natural landscape this enables a variety of different shots and themes to be taken. Also with the arcade, the pier and local shops, the different locations will be very important in our shots whereas the use of props maybe not so much.

Will we need to be able to hear the track for lip syncing?

If we put into practice of what we actually want in our final piece this will be unnecessary as our genre is Hip-Hop we are going for an unconventional style of this as normally lip syncing is evident.
