Recce Report

Before filming we must investigate the possible locations for filming. In our Recce Reports we look to assess the different locations to see whether or not they are suitable for filming and elements which we should be aware of to make sure it is safe. The elements we are looking for are the following;

-          Health and Safety concerns

-          Parking or Equipment access

-          Electrical outlets/power supplies

-          Available lighting sources (Natural and artificial)

-          Requirement of permission to film on site

-          Viability in creating a suitable and intended atmosphere

-          Space and filming possibilities

-          Area for shooting, cast, equipment

Kitchen/ Hallway Scene

For this scene we were looking to film in a house, in particular a kitchen and hallway. This was a very easy decision as I could use my own home. It contains enough space and has props already available for the cast to use at their disposal. Also it is very easy to control the lighting in either the kitchen or the hallway in order to get the atmosphere of the scene perfect to fit in with the progression of the script. Due to needing the weather to be cloudy and raining, days of filming would have to change, so only so much could be filmed in one day depending on the weather conditions. Only being a maximum of 3-4 shots that need to be in these weather conditions it should to slow down filming very much
