Post 12- Independent work towards targets

The first target I set myself was to make sure the location that we chose is the perfect one for our production. By reaching this target, I had to make a criteria which I would check against the plot of our film, to see which location was the most suitable for it. This criteria included:

1. Does the location have a sufficient amount of  natural lighting?
2. Does the location have enough working space so the camerawoman has enough room to film?
3. What is the outside surrounding sound like? Could it possibly be disruptive to the film?
4. Does the location have access to artificial lighting?
5. Does the location have an 'echo' sound to it? If so this could be altered at the editing stage.

I also decided to make a criteria to decide which roles in the group were allocated to who. These roles included Camerawoman, Editor and actors/actresses. The criteria is as follows:

1. Who has had previous experience of editing?
2. Who is the most comfortable in front of the camera?
3. Who has had experience of using a large camera?

I made this criteria because overall, if I allocated the most suitable role to a person, then this would perhaps be less time consuming because it would save time learning a new process. For example, if someone already had some experience of editing in the editing suite, then this role is most likely going to be given to them. However, I am aware that they will not be the ONLY person carrying out this role, the other members of the group will be helping aswell.
