Unit 28: Task 2

For my corporate advertisement project I will be working with Bede Sixth Form College to help create a promotional video for their college and their sports facilities. I have been asked to use our drone to film some footage of their facilities for them. I have enlisted the help of Kaleb who will be the drone pilot.

There will be many production requirements for this project. It will be a single camera production as we will be using the drone to film it, it will also be silent footage we will capture as the drone has no built in microphone to pick up sound. We will be filming everything at Bede Sixth Form College so this swill be the only location. We will be getting there by bus as it is only a 37 minute bus ride from college. We will be taking the drone from college and returning on the day so there will be no real issues with scheduling, however we are now working on PMP’s so we will need to work everything around the times for those. The audience will need to know what the college has to offer so there will need to be shots of specific things on offer there to help sell the college. They need to know what the sports facilities have to offer if thy bare wanting to study this at the college, so we will need to get great footage to sell it.

In terms of management roles, Kaleb will be the pilot and cinematographer for the shoot and I will be the director for our shoot. This will be to help us to know what we are doing while we work with the people at Bede. In terms of production, Paul, the man in charge of creating the whole promotional video, will be the head honcho and he will be who has the last say on what we film and how it needs to look. In terms of monitoring progress I will be writing a diary that will document the entire production process that we are involved in.

Timing won’t be the most difficult thing in the world to sort out, as it will most likely be a short shoot when we start. It will, however, need to adhere to our schedules with PMP’s, and this could be a challenge as so many are getting made, but I am certain we will be able to make time somewhere to film this. The budget will revolve mainly our travel as there will be no expenses on our side of things aside from this.
