Film Writing Post 10

DRAFT

The projected length of the short film is between 15-20 minutes so being a crew of six students making a film of this length in just a few weeks would be quite difficult. As a result we discussed some more definite end goals to aim for. These seemed like some realistic expectations. These are to complete 15-20 page script, a complete shooting script with shots and notes and two scenes. This means rather than make a rushed and poorly done film to its entirety, we will focus on two scenes carefully shot and meticulously edited. Despite not having to produce the completed film there are still quite a few challenges that we will encounter along the course of production. Some of these challenges include time constraints and availability as well as the editing faze more specifically the visual effects. Since we are on such a short deadline we must work as efficiently as possible to ensure that we achieve what we set out to do. We must also account that there will be times that all six of us will not be able to make it to every shoot as we all have other commitments besides this project. If we keep an open line of communication in the group we should be able to adapt to any situation change in regards to absence or if needs be we will reschedule. Since none of us are especially proficient in the visual effects department there are some doubts in regards to our abilities to actually achieve the visuals we aspire to create. The members that will be in charge of editing will be practicing with test footage and in the chase that they are unsuccessful so there is also a contingency plan.
