Kidnapping and Family Scene Filming Plan

Filming Plan

                   In order to make filming the house scene go as smoothly as possible in hopefully just one attempt, we created a filming schedule for the day. This is very important as we have got all the actors (Annie, Mick and Esther) together for the first time, and finding a date when they are all free again will be challenging.

11.00-11.20: Arrive at the location and get set up

                         Ensure camera's are charged
                         Check locations are set up how we want them
                         Discuss our plans for the day

11.20-12.00: Shots with Esther on her own Filmed with Go-Pro
                         Sounds of Esther being taken 
                         The beginning shots with Esther's hands 
                         Shots of her around the house 
                                      Playing on trampoline
                                      Reading 
                                      Doing crafts that are in her room

12.00-12.20: Annie Arrives 
                          Greet Annie and explain the plans for the day 
                          Take photos of the family, and individual actors for the blog 

12.20-13.00: The shots of the whole family 
                          Esther playing as the parents look happy 
                          The parents arguing without Esther 
                          Record sound of parents arguing

13.00-13.30: Contingency Time 
                          Re-film anything we don't like
                          Catch up on time
                          Esther can leave
                          Group break

13.30-14.00: Shots of Mum
                          Filming from behind her, typing and working
                          Take photo's of location for Blog

14.00-15.00: Shots of Parents 
                          Scene with Hot Drink, Step-Dad taking it into Mum, shaking and nervous

15.00-15.30: Final shot of parents
                           Walking into the bedroom of the child
                           Tracking shot
