Work Experience

Little sprouts project
Contact - Debbie Fixter
Company - Little sprouts
Type of business - CIC
22nd of November
10am - 2pm, Hartington road 4 hours
For this project we were required to film a short promotional video in order for a local company to enter in a bid for more investment from the national lottery fund. We spent an hour on the morning having a short meeting with our client to understand exactly what they wished to be included with there promotional video. We then arrived on location at 11am and filmed through till 2pm making sure that we captured everything that was needed.
I was personally involved in interviewing a number of people who were all related to the project, taking on more of a director role looking at the background and framing for each interview.
In regards to health and safety before we began work we located our closest fire exits and extinguishers and ensured that we did not cause any blockages in corridors and near exits.

28th September
1pm - 4pm, at college 3 hours 

On this date we were given our brief to create a short promotional video between 2 and 3 minutes long. We discussed our ideas together and arranged a meeting with our contact Jenny to find out exactly what she wanted and started to plan which groups would be going to each shoot in.


5th October
1pm - 4pm, at college 3 hours

Continued to plan for the project by researching each of the different locations that we would be filming at, then discussed the best way for the members of each filming crew to travel to those locations and assigned groups to each shoot accordingly.

6th October
30 minute meeting at college
We had a meeting with our contact Jenny where we asked her to explain exactly what she wanted from the final product so that we could discuss some of the ideas that we had already thought of with her. She gave us contact details for the people in charge of each project so that we could communicate with them and organise dates and times.



12th October
1pm - 4pm, at college 3 hours 

We focused more on what we will film for the promotional video, we looked at the different projects and contacted all of the people involved to see if we could find times and dates that we were able to go and film so that we could gather the necessary footage. 
I also printed out daily production reports for all specified locations and partially completed them by filling in all dates, times and locations as well as a brief description.

We made a calendar/schedule for the upcoming weeks to write events on so that everyone has access to see and participate in a filming event.


19th October
1pm - 4pm, at college 3 hours 

It was decided that me, Jess and Matthew would go and film at the Tees Barrage on Friday the 21st of October so we used this time to prepare. We created a shot list of everything that we thought we would need to get but decided that the filmmaking will be mostly reactive. We printed off release forms and decided on questions if we choose to interview a contributor. We had already been given a risk assessment so we also took some time to look at that.




21st October
Filming: 10am - 1pm at Tees Barrage 3 hour



Today we filmed at the Tees Barrage, we got some great footage of all the different activities that you are able to take part in there, hopefully our footage will advertise and entice people to get involved with all of the possible activities the barrage offers. As we were not sure what type of things would be available to film on the day the shot list was only a basis and we filmed a lot more than we originally planned for. I was mostly responsible for all the camera work with the other members of the team helping to direct me and also taking a few shots of there own. We only piece of equipment other than the camera that we used the shoulder mount because it would have been a waste of time to set up a tripod for every shot, this meant that we could not film any interviews with the volunteers that were involved with the project however we did not think that this was an issue as we thought an interview would have impacted the pace of the video far to much and so were reluctant to shoot something that we didn't want to include. Some shots will be not be completely steady, to correct this we can use the warp stabilise tool in premier pro. The filming process was very successful as we managed to gather everything that we needed in one shoot day. Health and safety was very visible as it was made clear to us that we were not allowed to climb over any railings without first asking for a life vest, this was to unsure that no one fell into the river and drown.
