Camera Work: All three of us.
This is for a number of reasons; firstly due to availability as it is highly unlikely that any one of us will be 100% available for all filming sessions and therefore this allows us to always have someone on hand to film. Also, it enables us to share the workload fairly as filming is the main task in creating our product. And finally, due to our own strengths and weaknesses with cinematography, sharing the shot-types between us will allow the best possible filming to be achieved
Director: All three of us.
Again, this is mainly due to our personal strengths and weaknesses. Additionally, if one/more of us are unavailable for filming, this allows plans to go ahead regardless. Also, being a group production we are all as knowledgeable on our plans as one another- having all come up with some of the ideas- therefore not one of us was more suited for this role than the others, but if we were to split up the directing responsibilities, we would be able to direct the sections of the film that we came up with to enable maximum effectiveness.
Props: Tiffany Pickford/ Maisie Hesketh
Tiffany was put in charge of props because of accessibility and availabilities she had. Also, because the sections of the opening sequence she had come up with the ideas for, were those containing props and therefore we felt that she was most appropriate for this role. I, Maisie, had also come up with ideas containing props and therefore would be suitable for organising and coordinating these. Additionally, I have contacts at the wardrobe/props department in a local theatre and therefore would be able to borrow them if anything abstract was required.
Costumes: Maisie Hesketh.
As with my 'props' responsibilities, we felt that it was appropriate for me to have charge of the costumes due to my contacts at the wardrobe/props department in a local theatre (hence able to borrow them if anything abstract was required). Additionally, I am able to accurately match the costumes with the mise-en-scene of the scene, and the conventions of the characters within the genre. However, with the isolation scene, I simply asked Brogan (as she played our female protagonist) to wear casual clothing, and, henceforth, she was responsible for costumes in this scene.
Location: Brogan Adams
Brogan was best suited to being responsible for locations largely due to accessibility; she lives near to the location for the car-crash scene, and the hospital scene was to be filmed at her house. Additionally, playing the role of our female protagonist, she needed to feel comfortable acting in our chosen locations, therefore, her being responsible for locations was how we felt that this would work most efficiently.
Equipment: Tiffany Pickford
Tiffany was allocated the responsibility of the equipment mainly because of the 'swiping-out' system at college, we have to present the technician with our media card before any equipment can be checked out, and Tiffany was the one in our group who did this. In doing this, Tiffany was confirming that should any of the equipment be lost or damaged, she could be held responsible. In addition to this, she was the best suited to controlling the more advanced equipment, such as the steady-cam.
Organisation/Time Management: All three of us.
All three of us needed to be responsible for organisation and time management; due to it being a group production, if one of us failed to be organised or on time, the whole group would be let down. Therefore, each of us having these responsibilities would encourage us to remain committed and work best as part of the team.
Co-ordination: All three of us
Like with organisation and time management responsibilities, we decided mainly for all three of us to be responsible for coordination due to it being a group piece of work. Moreover, in order for it all to be coordinated, we will be needing to work as a team anyway, so it simply made most sense for us all to be responsible for coordination.
Actors: Brogan Adams (16 year old female) and Ryan Murrell (18 year old male)
We chose to have Brogan and Ryan playing our two protagonists as they best fitted the stereotypes of the characters we were aiming to create.
