AS MEDIA FILMING WEEKS

AS Students,

Please be aware you only have access to college cameras week beginning 30th November until 18th December.  Between 8th December and 14th December only 3 cameras are available for hire due to an event at the Gulbenkian Theatre.

It is really important you set your filming dates as early as possible to allow for any potential problems or delays. 

Please leave room for pick up shots or repeat shots if necessary.

Remember to show me all your production paperwork before you film (storyboard, shot list and risk assessment) and book your equipment with Gabbi or Steve in Room E103 well in advance.  You will all need to complete an equipment booking form which will need to be signed by me.

Thanks

Caroline

The rest of you will need to stay in after your next lesson with me to complete the research you need to do in order to obtain a grade if not complete for when I see you next.

All of the groups need to indicate that they are well on their way to planning their film with:
