Did some research

  1. Watch documentary films. In order to understand the techniques. They can be watched online at sites like FourDocs and the documentary film network. Learn the genres as well as filmmaking styles.
* Documentary films are shot by handheld camera which gives the watcher feeling of it being true.

  1. Need to become familiar with the equipment.

* Mr Holloway have thought us some techniques as well as how to use lights.
  1. Need to find subject that I find fascinating and am familiar with. Resources are needed for the film. Need to look at budget we have. Need to be realistic about it.

* Ash chose the subject which is about social realism, so the group is quite familiar with the subject.
  1. Research, research and research some information to become an expert. Could read books, speak to people with similar experiances to make it more realistic.

* I have watched similar movies, am familiar with the subject. Could research more on it.
  1. Structure of the film . Need to visualise it, and in our case draw it briefly.The script.

* We will do that once we all meet.
  1. Wishlist of any people, location planning, equipment planning.

The actors phone nr to get a hold of them. Forms need to be signed by the location owner/s. Equipment need to be booked.

*Here are some photos of location we will shoot the film in.

  1. Shoot the film.


  1. Do the editing. Subtitle choice and styling. Computer at media room are available, so it shouldn’t be that impossible. I have also downloaded editing program incase!

The audianceà I personally think that it should be 15+ film, as there are drugs involved in the movie. We wouldņ want little kids to get influenced by this.

* need to have a questionnaire or a video of interviewing people.
