So I have been having a week or so of extremely hectic planning for my direction unit. I have been trying to get my actors, location, script, shoot schedule, shot list and props and wardrobe all into place and ready to go for when i film my short segment from my chosen drama Desperate Housewives. Here is how things are going so far:
Script- i handed a draft script into Simon and he said it was all fine except for the possibility it would go over my 3 minute time limit. So I have been trying to take lines out here and there from the script which i feel would not be missed if they were not there. This turned out to be tougher then i thought it would be!
Actors- I have 2 main actors and the walk on parts for my filming, but i still need to find one more person, this should not be too hard and hope to find someone in the next day or so.
Location- I have decided that I am going to have my scene set on the beach as it will give a new dimension to this scene but then not take away from what is happening on screen and confuse the audience too much.
Shot list and shooting schedule- I have started my shot list and gone into a lot of detail as to which shots I am wanting to use as i feel it is better to have more options of different shots then less options. My shooting schedule is over a full day.
I will still be doing some more planning so that I am as organised as I can be.
