External factors

With our media production being part of an A level, we can only do our best with the technology around us, as we are not expected to use our own money for this study. The external factors that may hinder our production would be:

• The Weather- This is a problem that is entirely out of our control. If it snows, it snows, however we will just have to cope with this and carry on with the filming. If the conditions are so bad that we're not able to meet as a group, then we will have to re-schedule our shooting to another date.


• Illness- Being ill is another thing to consider, as it depends on who it is. If one of the scheduled actor's/ actresses are ill then we will have to amend our planning of shooting dates to another time. If one team member is off ill, then I think the rest of the team must carry on as we have limited time with our actress (Molly Bell).


• Technology- With our non-existent budget we will have to make do with the technology we already have. An advantage of this would be that we are already familiar with the hardware/software, and so we can easily reach our penitential as a group if we work together. Creating science fiction effects/ live mix special effects is our of our capability. An example of the software would be 'Magix Video Pro X 2.0'. Editing software is something that every has in our group. HD video cameras, SLR camera's, Tripod's, laptops etc are found around the groups personal belongings.


• Setting- The places where we are filming are'nt the most spectacular, but whilst planning our production and narrative we would have an understanding of where to film. For example permission may hinder our chosen location, and so we would have to of chosen a realistic location.
