Production Calendar and Stripboard

 This week my group and I focused on planning out our time for the production era of our project. We are given a two week period of filming time for our opening sequence. We discussed what shots or scenes we wanted to do on each day and how it would work out with our time frame.

Stripboard

The stripboard was an aspect our a media project I've never tried on previous assignments. We used studio binder which listed out all of our shots. We then set it to organize by scene setting, day then night, and int. to ext. They also color coordinated the shots with what they were sorted by. We were able to add daybreaks to plan out how many scenes we wanted to do in a day. 

Although this was a new point in a project for me, it was very simple. My group and I had no struggles with this aspect because our script was formatted correctly. It look us 30 minutes to clean up the scenes in and make sure everything was in place. The stripboard was a bit relaxing to work on.

Production Calendar

After, we worked on the production calendar. This is also a new aspect that took less than a day to complete. Just like the stripboard, it was very simple. We mapped out the shooting schedule to last around 4 days. That takes up one week of our given shooting times. We will use the second week for any reshoots we need. The days in the production calendar include a check list of shots we are going to complete for that day.
