Pre-Production Unit: My Roles

As I will be working with a partner on this unit, it will be important for me to properly define and understand my roles. After speaking with Charlie, I have decided that my roles will be:

• Script-writer
• Story-board Artist
• Producer
• Co-Editor

Charlie has decided that his roles will include Cinematography. I believe that he will thrive in this position, as our film may contain some quite graphic situations and scenes, and I was impressed by the way Charlie handled the filming of a scene for his Fiction Adaptation film piece in year 2 where a girl was depicted being raped, but nothing explicit was shown. 

Because of this, I think Charlie understands how to insinuate that graphic situations are occurring, without actually showing the graphic detail, which considering we will be working with a shoestring budget, will be very useful.

I may also be involved in working with sound equipment and operating a camera if it becomes necessary on shoot days and none of the other students in our class are available to help.
