Location Permission Letter - Forest

 Forest Permission Correspondence Letter

This correspondence letter is evidence that I have permission to film in my chosen location - a forest. Most of the time, film producers gain permission for multiple possible filming locations in case a location owner says no, or a certain location suddenly becomes unavailable whilst filming, leaving a film producer to possibly use a backup location. Evidence that a film producer is allowed to film in a location is needed because it is illegal to film without it and film makers can get arrested or have to face consequences if they get caught filming in a location without permission. Despite it being illegal to film without permission, some film makers do it anyway in hopes of not getting caught and sometimes it turns out successful for the film producer. However, the risk is quite high does not always pay off for some film makers. It is risk-free and better to gain a location permit or permission to film in a location. I used a letter to gain permission to film because I did not know the landowners personally and had to research who owned the forest first. After, completing my research I found out the address of the landowners and therefore my (and a film makers) only option would be to send a letter to get into contact with the owners. A letter is useful because it is physical evidence that proves you have permission to film in a certain location and therefore if anyone asks to see proof you can easily show this a letter. This documentation impacts my final production because it legally secures a location for me to film in. I now know that I can successfully film in the forest. I also now have a larger idea on how my film is going to look and can imagine the mise-en-scene and look of the scenes filmed in a forest. My piece of documentation is professional but not industry standard, this is because a permission correspondence letter would be written by a regular person who most likely is not involved in the film industry and only really needs to give a yes or no answer.

Unit 10: Learning Aim A Film Genre Analysis This shows evidence of my analysis of a range of short film clips and film extracts from different genres of film. Throughout completing this task, the brief was that I am working for the creative team at Jinjasnap, who are an independent film production company that broadcasts content on their YouTube channel. Jinjasnap are aiming to devote three weeks of programming to a 'film genre season', which will include programmes on fictional film genres, audience Q&A's with film directors and a series of original short films. Everyone (including myself) are contributing to the 'film genre season', I have been asked to analyse a range of short film clips and film extracts from different genres in preparation for a series of programmes on fictional film genres. My essay includes an analysis of the purpose, format, narrative structure, visual storytelling, genre and the audience of my chosen films which will be used by the pro...

Call Sheet

  Call Sheet This documentation is evidence of a call sheet. A call sheet is a document sent out to all the cast and crew for every filming day and it outlines where they each need to be for the following shoot day and at what time. It also outlines the daily shooting schedule for the day (stating what shots are planned to be captured and who is needed for those shots), informs the cast and crew of weather conditions, parking, break times, weather forecast, the nearest hospital and other important information to make sure they are prepared. I have completed my call sheet in a table with separate sections, I have done this because it separates the different information into groups of what is similar and in an organised and efficient way, so that it isn't confusing. I also decided to put the important information near the top of the sheet, including the nearest hospital in case someone gets harmed whilst filming, the call time and wrap time and how to ge...
