My Schedule…

 OKAY SO

Now we’re getting serious, the time to film is coming up and I practically have my entire story down. I have to get my schedule down first. So here’s the base plan.

1/30-2/6: Straight planning, simply working on how I want the story, making my storyboard, and researching the materials I need. Also, getting help from anyone I need to make this film opening possible. Looking into certain things like fonts and music as well.

2/7-2/11: Script writing! I want to get my characters down and how much dialogue I truly want to use throughout this project. I want to take these 4 days to ensure that I have made the best script possible that I can slightly tweak as the project goes on, as well as making dialogue that is easy for amateur actors to go along with.

2/12-2/16: Getting my actors and my materials for the mise-en-scene of it all. Making sure my actors have the available costumes (if not creating a budget for myself), getting or creating my props, ensuring I can use my planned setting, and seeing what I can make out of the things I can use in the auditorium of the school as my connection to drama may help.

2/17: First meet with actors and crew, discussing through the process and seeing who can help with what at specific times. Getting everyone’s schedules down and ensuring our next meet is planned well. Creating the artwork for my logo and opening as well as finalizing the font that the credits will use. Also, assigning certain crew members to film behind the scenes for the CCR.

2/18: Fight choreography. Meeting with actors involved in fight scenes and practicing the choreographed fights to ensure nobody gets hurt through the production.

2/19-3/1: FILMING! I want to get atleast the 2 of the 3 pages of what my storyboard and script shows in this time frame. Hopefully more will get done but due to the difficulty of my genre it may be harder to get everything done. 

3/2-3/9: Finish filming and work on editing. It is absolutely necessary that before the first week of March is over I am entirely done filming everything. I need to begin editing during the actual filming process not just here but it’ll be focused on here. Begin CCR editing here as well.

3/10-3/17: Finish editing project and CCR, finalize project and submit!
