Filming schedule

           Why is a filming schedule important to have?
A filming schedule is a project plan of the shooting required for the production of the sequence. It represents a timeline stating what events happen at what location and at what time. The resources are also stated; mostly involving basic filming equipment used along with a camera.The shot type and its content is also shown so it is clear when filming. This enables the shooting of the sequence to run smoothly as it has been previously organised. The filming schedule can be used alongside the storyboard whilst filming. The scenes have been broken down into shorter and more manageable sections with all equipment and props outlined in advance. This prevents wasting time on going back to get forgotten items.Each shot is estimated to take twenty minutes to film however contingency time can be used in case of the scenes taking longer to set up and film.

Did you follow the schedule while filming, or did you make any changes?
When filming, the filming schedule was strictly followed however

  1. You have made a start in explaining why a filming schedule is important. It is also clear to see the shots and scenes, that you have decided to film. But you need to complete this and explain if you made any changes
