Filming Schedule - Miss Georgiou

Filming schedules are produced so that the group members know what exactly is happening in each frame. It states where and when each part of the film will be shot, so that the producers know exactly what must happen. It also allows you to make sure you know what to include such as iconography and the different costumes that are needed. In doing this, the filming is more organised and therefore is quickly done. This then saves time. Below is my filming schedule;


When filming, the filming schedule came into use as we followed most of what was on it. However, in some parts we didn't use it, i think this was due to lack of concentration. When we had filmed everything, we started editing, and when reviewing what we had done so far, we were asked to re film as the film looked too shaky. Therefore, we will film again and follow our filming schedule in order to create a great opening thriller sequence. When filming again, i will be able to concentrate more as we have hired new actors, who take drama as an a level and this will therefore make the film look better aswell as serious because those actors will take their role seriously. I have learnt to follow the filming schedule completely in order not to miss any key frames/camera angles out so that the audience can understand what is going on completely. When filming the first time, we did not include any additional shots, this was because it took so long to do, all we were thinking about was finishing it before it got too late. I am glad we are being given the chance to re film because i want to get the best grade that i can get.

I have learnt that the role of the filming schedule is significant when filming because it allows you to waste less time thinking about what you are doing next and you can just film each part quickly and efficiently.I have also learnt that you must always stick to your filming schedule in order to know where you are and what you need to do next. Next time, i will make sure that i definitely stick to the filming schedule because as mentioned, it will really help me to save time and know what i have to do next instead of guessing. I will also make sure that i follow it the schedule at all times so that i don't miss out any important scenes/shots. I have to make sure that i do this, so that i can give the audience what they want.

  1. This post demonstrates some understanding of what a filming schedule is and the benefit that it has to a production. Your table demonstrates some evidence of group planning.

    Your conclusion, demonstrates some understanding of why you have decided to re film certain shots/sequences again, but you need to elaborate on the points that you have made, by explaining what you will do differently and why?
