OTHER PLANNING NOTES TO CONSIDER:

ACTORS:

-who are they?
-photos of them
-before/after photos of them (dressed up as character)
-reasons why you chose them (acting skills/look for character etc)

COSTUME & PROPS & MAKE UP: LOTS OF PHOTOS!
-any inspirational screen shots/photos of the 'look you want'?
-what are they?
-organise by costume/prop/make up in slides
-stuff you already have and and photos of this
-stuff you need, where will you get it? cost? (screen shot online)
-reasons why you will need this stuff (how does it link with genre? how does it link with story? what characters will wear what?)
-any tutorials from youtube can be embedded on blog (how to do ghost make up/how do zombie make up etc)
-costume: clothing they will wear including accessories
-props: anything you will need in the film ie phone, knife, chairs, etc
-make -up: 'dead skin or zombie look, contact lenses, fake blood, black eye make-up etc etc


LOCATIONS: LOTS OF PHOTOS!
-locations you might want to use (scouting)
-range of photos from google maps?
-range of photos AT the location, in a range of shots/angles
-descriptions or captions of over/near photos to explain how you will use this location
-how you will get to location (journey for all members)
-important issues with location (open to public, open/close times etc)
-health and safety issues (travelling there, uneven surfaces members of public around)


PRESENTATION OF WORK:
-range of visuals in presentation
-work is neat, clear, well organised, easy to access/navigate (not cluttered or messy looking)
-no extensive writing - bullet points
-range of technology across set assignments


PRESENTATION ON BLOG:
-chronological and up to date (goes in order with correct dates)
-clear title post for every blog post, done correctly ie (PLANNING) Assign 99: Script
-properly embedded presentations/videos
-limited photos in blog poster - (better to have in photopeach/animoto/make a gif etc)

-neat, clear and readable
-consistent font (and size throughout)
-organisational tools to present text clearly:  BOLD, BULLET POINTS, good LINE SPACING etc
