The Group's Action Plan

Week 1:
Moving Image research, looking into our genre (e.g. documentaries such as Ross Kemp On Gangs) in order to understand the codes and conventions much better. Not only taking notes about the codes and conventions, but additionally preparing similar shots for my practical production. The various shots will be planned by conducting a storyboard, which it will include captions stating key scenery and sound. Prior to the storyboard, a brainstorm will be created, stating the production’s different mise-en-scene, props and actors my production hopes to will include.
Week 2:
Prior to filming the production’s interviews, a script will be planned before. Whilst creating the script, the scripting will involve what questions my group intends to ask the interviewees as well as the stereotypical answers that we intend to receive from the teenage delinquents that we interview. In addition to our written up plan, we will begin our filming process. This involves capturing several shots of random locations as well as props that will be imbedded in the documentary as part of the medium’s codes and conventions.
Week 3:
This week the filming process of my production will officially be carried out as my group will start the interviewing aspect of our documentary. We intend to film the three individuals during this week, which interviewees’ roles simply include answering the questions asked by the documentary presenter (interviewer). The footage we manage to capture will then be uploaded on the computer and ready for editing. Due to our research conducted during week 1, we should be confident of the codes and conventions of the types of camera shots and what we ought to include when conducting an interview for a documentary.
Week 4:
A diverse variety of shots filming several different things such as locations, props, people, mise-en-scenes ect. will primarily be filmed this week. As a group we also aim to complete our filming process this week considering we ought to only film random variations oppose to our main documentary idea of consultation with teenage delinquents (which presently interviews should have been filmed from week 3).
Week 5:
Considering that all of the filming process should be complete at this point in time, my group and me will unmistakably edit all the footage we have captured. Following the plan illustrated from our storyboard during week 1 as well as the research we gathered during week 2, we will therefore apply the codes and conventions from both studies and combine them together during the editing process of my practical production.
Week 6:
To sum up the project, 25% of my final grade should come to an end by the start of the week as the linked production would have been entirely edited and fully complete. However within the week I will conclude the remaining 25% of my 50% coursework grade by improving any mistakes part of my critical investigation as well as including any further information suggested by my teacher considering the feedback I receive from my first draft.
