OWN PRODUCTION SCHEDULES AND YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS SHOULD REFELCT THAT.

THESE QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN THE WEEKS YOU COMPLETED THEM. DO NOT JUST SUBMIT THIS
FORM FILLED IN FOR YOUR WEEKLY BLOGS. THERE SHOULD BE 11 WEEKLY BLOG ENTRIES (INCLUDING
EASTER).

Week Four - Planning

PLANNING

What did you learn from your planning This week I have;
this week? - Learnt more about each of my proposed filming
locations, how to get to them, what I should expect
when I am there.
- After consulting my subject I have gained knowledge of
things to add to my props list.
- Learnt more facts and statistics on my interviewees
sporting ‘background’.

What issues did you encounter and I have not been able to travel to my proposed locations
how did you overcome them? because the country is on lockdown due to COVID-19. This
meant that I couldn’t take photos of my locations, or provide
lighting, sound, power, or hazard information and solutions. I
have had to improvise and use photos that I have found online,
and write a basic description of each location from information
that I could find online. Because I cannot currently leave my
house to film this documentary I have had to write my
equipment list, location recce’s, everything, in hopes that I will
be able when the time comes.

How has your planning I have had to cut out visiting my locations before making my
developed/changed during the location recce’s. Other than that, no changes have been
planning stage? made.

How have you ensured your interview I have made sure I have not gone off on a tangent at any point
questions are appropriate? and I have consulted Gerry on if he feels he can or is happy to
answer all the questions or not.

Are you on track for the week? If not, Yes.
