Venue Release Forms
When filming our trailer for the majority of the scenes we need specific permission from land owners to use their land for filming. The scene settings of our trailer which required permission to film are:
The Graveyard
The House Owner
Costa Coffee
For some of our scenes we did not have to get permission to film, these locations were as following:
The Alley Way
Maghull Train Station
To double check it was indeed okay for us to film in the train station we asked the merseyrail attendant and duty and he confirmed that it was.

Graveyard
A member of our group e-mailed the reverend of St Andrew's Church to ask if we could use the graveyard on the church land. The e-mail we sent the reply we got can be seen below:
House Owner
Fortunate enough for our group we were able to use one of our own houses to film part of our trailer, therefore we simply asked the parents of the person in our group and verbally got consent to film in their house.

Costume List
Our target market for our trailer is older teenagers and young adults. Something as simple as characters costumes can define what type of person they are, understanding how important costumes are we took time and cosideration deciding them. We made the costumes casual and in fashion for the modern day teenager/young adult. We also thought out our whole film to make more sense of what costumes would be used in the same shots of our trailer.

House
The locations above were perfect for the mis en scene needed to film our trailer. Our trailer is for a scary movie so we thought very carefully about lighting and what time of day to film. St Andrews Church gave us the perfect setting for eerie dark long establishing shots to fit in with the genre of our film.
For risk assessments we made sure that no one could be harmed or hurt whilst filming. When filming in the graveyard we made sure that all branches and twigs were moved out of the way to make sure no one tripped over. All so when filming in Costa Coffee a knife was used. We made sure that the first knife used (which fell off the table) was blunt so it caused no damage; we then swapped the knife for a sharper one. A lot of the camera angles we used were high shots therefore we had to make sure the platform we used to rest the video camera on was secure and safe.

Filming Log
This is a copy of our filming log. As you can see there are some significant changes from out production schedule. When coming to film our trailer it became apparent that members of our group could not be present on some days, so we re-scheduled the days and our jobs within the days of filming.

Production Log
My group consisted of Rachel Slater, Lauren Talbolt, Sam Higham and myself, Lauren O'Connor. This helps us to decide who will execute which job whilist filming are trailer. We have split the jobs fairly amongst the group. We have also included a timetable of what we will film on what days and times.
