Production Schedule
Location Visit Sheet

Programme Title: Difference.
Writer: Joe Howlett, Marianne Webb
Producer: Joe Howlett, Marianne Web
Director: Joe Howlett, Marianne Webb
Date: 15/01/14


Rough Sketch/Explanation of location and key points to note
We will be filming in two three different locations, starting off with the drama studio in All Saints School, then we will be using one of our houses and then finally we will be going out into the streets to film the final scenes.

Access to location via:  
Drama Studio All Saints School.

Name and number of location contact:
Drama Teacher.

 Health and Safety Issues to note:
There is the problem of filming out in the streets and the obstacles of cars coming down the street when we will be trying to film the Thriller.

Potential Filming Problems:

If we have the problem of not being able to gain access of the All Saints drama studio but however if this is the case we do have the backup of filming in a shed at the back of one of our houses.
Another problem to us could be the weather, we would have to keep the camera dry so therefore if it was to rain, and then we would have to use something to keep the Camera Dry. We could possibly do something like just put an umbrella over the Camera.

Additional Notes:  (map of area/weather forecast etc)
Here is a map of the Area that we will be filming at, on the A is where we will be filming most of the Thriller and then also on this map you can see All Saints School where we will hopefully be able to film the other part of the Thriller.

Title: Difference


Tag Line: It’s not always the same…


Synopsis:  Victim wakes up in a dark room, tries to look around, and however cannot see anything. Kidnapper then says lines like “Isn’t it strange how roles can be reversed…”. Then the next shot that we will see is that a shot saying 12 hours earlier, the victim has an argument with a couple of his friends and/or family and leaves the house to try and calm down but ends up getting kidnapped after getting knocked out by the villain. The screen goes to black and the title of the film comes up. The villain kidnaps him because she wants a role reversal, instead of a man kidnapping a helpless girl, a woman would kidnap a helpless man.



Key Genre Conventions:
Tension.
