Research Report- 5. Production Planning

Required materials- Fig Rig, Tripod, Camera & handicam. Apple laptop, University Apple, home PC & 2 storage drives both 500gb.

Software- Goldwave audio editing software (I own a copy), WinX DVD ripper Platinum (trial version sufficient) & Final Cut (university).

Cast- at least 5, culled from classmates and willing volunteers. I want to recast the viewer since I'm looking to incorporate the Edward Deaux character I used in my film last year as part of my chain (as a heavily media-influenced character he fits the theme) and since that's me I wish to avoid confusion. At the moment I'm looking at creating a 3 person rudimentary cop show (two cops, one perpetrator) and an internet-style movie review show in addition to a fake documentary segment with Edward.

Locations-
Cop Show- Frenchay Campus halls. (Cast Toby & other campus residents)
Viewer location- My flat
Review show- Converted st matts classroom with drapes background, chair & desk.
Fake Documentary- Street location with Edward working on his film on a mac in his car, most likely directly outside of St Matts.

Additional footage- So far I've assembled clips from the following films and shows- Community, Friends, Black Books, Scream, 500 Days of Summer, True Romance, Star Trek TNG, The West Wing, The Wire, Beavis & Butthead Do America, Hot Fuzz, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Simpsons. Additional footage may be required but these are the raw materials with which I plan to work.
