Filming Schedule - Miss Georgiou

A filming schedule is important to have, because its good to be organised for a group to know when they will be filming and what kinds of shots we will be taking.  A filming schedule includes:

The type of shot:
The type of shot is numbered 1,2,3 etc. so the members know what type of shot is being shot and what order certain frames will be filmed in.

Date and Time:
The date and time is made, so all the group members and actors know when and what specific shot is being taken at the time.  

Content/Action:
This is a short descriptions of what happens within the shot.  It provides a reminder to the actors and director of what to do in the shot.

Shot type & Duration:
This is helps the director of photography know what kind of shot/cinematography to be filmed, which could include a high angle, long shot or panning shot etc.  The duration reminds the group how long it should roughly take.

Iconography:
This reminds the group members, what iconography should be included in a specific shot.  E.g. A knife or mask

Equipment:
This reminds the group members, to have the necessary equipment needed for filming.  Therefore, meaning they will not forget it.  The equipment may include: Camera, batteries, memory card, tripod etc.


We had to make some changes regarding some members did not turn up meaning we had to compromise and film what we could.  We also have to film on different days, so that it won't take as long and keep moving from location to location.  Our group decided to film on different days because some group members had to be back by a certain time, due to other plans.

  1. This post demonstrates some planning technqiues. You have started to consider the purpose of a filming schedule, but you still need to discuss the points that you have included in further detail. Elaborate on the points that you have included, and discuss why you and your group filmed on different days.
