No permission is needed as Rosie is a part of the filming group.
Will the levels of noise cause a problem?
If so, how will you overcome this?
Noise might be a problem but we will be filming in the evening so it shouldn’t be a big disadvantage. We can try and sound proof the garage. We will also try and film on a day when Rosie’s family will not be around.



                                                                                                                                                
Is the level of lighting suitable?
The lighting in the garage flickers so this gives a big advantage when trying to create tension in our piece.
We will use natural lighting and the lights provided in Rosie’s house to film with.
If inside, are the Emergency exits clearly visible and available?
Is Emergency equipment provided?


Is there public transport easily available to you?

Facilities and Equipment Checklist

Facility or equipment needed
Description of use
Source and contact
Big Knife
The knife shall be used to create tension after seeing the dead body.
Rhianna will buy a big fake knife from a party shop as a real knife has a lot of risks.
Rosie’s Garage
These areas will be used to shoot in.
We will ask Rosie’s parents if it is okay to use the house for filming as it could become quite hectic.
Rosie’s Room
Camera
This will be used to shoot the several scenes in the task.
Rosie is going to ask a friend to borrow their camera as she has better knowledge on how to use it.
Chair
This will be used to hold the dead corpse.
We will either use an old chair of Rosie’s or buy a cheap one from a charity shop.
Fake Guts
This will be used to make the dead character seem gorier.
Rosie will provide the fake guts and blood as she is talented when it comes to special effect.

Treatment

Treatment.


Rosie gets a text, this is shown with an over the shoulder shot. Camera then pans or cuts to show the reaction to the text. Cuts to Rose swiping everything off the desk which matches on to Holly opening the door, (continuity) opening to the other side of the door. Tracks Holly walking forward from in front. Rhianna comes into view she is dead and covered in blood and guts, Holly doesn't see Rhianna’s gory face. We see the door still open as a shadow appears in the doorway.

-Point of view shot from person in the door (Max)
- Back to Holly (Previous shot)

-Arc shot, following Holly as she turns.
