Location
Scouting locations
Is lighting sufficient?
Does the location have windows?
Is there ample space to place the lights at the location?
Where are the power outlets?
safe access to power?
safety issues or concerns?
controlled location?
quiet location? or how can audio be addressed?
is there enough space for the crew to fit the location?
Finally, draw a rough diagram of the location with each camera setup.
TWO WINDOWS, PLENTY OF ROOM, SAFE, BUT WITH LIMITED ELECTRICAL SOCKETS, NEED TO BE CAREFUL, AND WOULD POSSIBLY BE A BETTER SHOT IF IT WERE ARTIFICIALLY LIT.
LIBRARY TABLES:
LOTS OF FLORESCENT LIGHTING, PLENTY OF ROOM, BUT LIMITED ELECTRICAL SOCKETS, ALSO, NEEDS TO BE CAREFUL OF OTHER STUDENTS WALKING IN AND AROUND THE AREA (WIRES, ETC. NEED TO BE CONCEALED.
M. POWERS OFFICE
LIMITED LIGHTING, VERY LITTLE ROOM FOR CREW TO GET IN. THERE ARE WINDOWS THAT OPEN TO THE LOUNGE AREA OF THE FACILITY. LIGHTING COULD BE A CHALLENGE. ALSO, SAFETY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CREW NEEDS TO BE VERY CAUTIOUS.

Exterior shot: Field
across from ASU;
OUTDOOR SHOTS, NEED FILTERS TO PREVENT OVEREXPOSURE, AND WEATHER COULD BECOME AN ISSUE. VERY LOUD WITH AIRPORT, BUT SHOT IS A VOICEOVER. CONCERNS COULD ALSO BE MUD AND COULD BE POSSIBLY DANGEROUS. NEEDS FURTHER SCOUTING.
Interior: Diesel Mechanics:
Plenty of windows, sockets, light and a very large space. Could be shot with lighting or not and there is plenty of room for students to fit in the space.

Interior: Hospitality Management
LARGE KITCHEN WITH LOTS OF SPACE, NO WINDOWS, COULD USE SOME LIGHTING. NOT SURE HOW MANY SOCKETS WE WILL HAVE TO USE FOR LIGHTING, BUT IT SHOULD BE SAFE. WE MIGHT NEED SOME SORT OF EXTENSION CORD. CHEF SAID WE COULD SHOOT IN THERE, BUT NO CLASSES ON TUESDAY THURSDAY. WE WOULD NEED VOLUNTEERS TO PRETEND TO BE TAKING COOKING CLASSES.

The Directors Vision
The Director's Vision
On the set, right or wrong, the director's word is law.
Sticking to this principle saves time and allows the crew to make the day.
Director arrives on set prior to the rest of the cast and crew to visualize.
A Typical Day on Set
1. Cast and crew arrive at their designated call time, these times should be staggered according to what is required of that particular cast or crew member.
2. Shots are blocked for the camera.
3. If time permits, a run-through of the first scene is performed.
4. The Director and DP come up with a plan for the day's shooting.
5. Marks are placed on the floor, if needed.
6. The DP gives lighting instructions to the gaffer and Camera instructions to the Grip Crew.
7. The Scene is Shot
Shot Procedure
1. "Quiet on the set," and the assistant director will call slate.
2. The Assistant Camera Operator Holds the Slate Up in Front of the Lens.
3. When the audio is set, the sound recorder calls "speed"
4. The AD calls "Roll Camera"
5. The Camera operator Presses Record and Calls.. "Rolling"
6. The Assistant Camera Operator reads the scene information on the clapboard, then "claps" the slate and moves behind the camera.
Script Supervision-the script supervisor is responsible for the following
Keeping track of the slates
Maintaining continuity in the scene and between scenes.
Making notes about each shot (good, bad, etc.)
