Pre-Production Paperwork or Production Notes - Trespass
The above link is my evidence of my planning and preparation for this project. This includes: consent forms for the actors shown in the video and the actors that was voiceovers (not including myself), floor plans or shot ideas for the day of the shoot (instead of a storyboard), my idea development with copies from my post on mandy.com for casting (I did not include teen Lucy, Lisa (Lucy's old therapist), Jax (Lucy's negative voice) and Hope (Lucy's positive voice) as hardly any people wanted to be those characters and I had already casted teen Lucy, Lisa, Hope and Jax), the location permission form to film at the location, the mood board (for adult and teen Lucy and Lisa), the risk assessment signed by one of our course lecturers, the first and second draft of the script, the shot list, that was used on filming day and the treatment for the project.
I haven't included the location pictures because I did not have the time to take pictures of the location before the owner went on holiday, but I did have permission to film at the location, as evidenced by the location permission form.
When casting for this film, I did have some initial issues. For example, the actress, that I originally had planned to be Lucy as an adult, emailed me on mandy.com to tell me that a paid job came up and she had decided to take that opportunity, instead of being in the short film, but she did send her deepest apologies. So, I went with my first backup actress that also applied for the role of adult Lucy, but she didn't email me back about the opportunity, so I decided to go with my second and final backup actress and luckily, she was available.
I also had problems casting Hope, Lucy's positive voice, because at the time of casting I wasn't sure if I wanted Lucy's voices to be physical people or voiceovers, but I then decided that it would be easier and simpler for me to have Lucy's voices be voiceovers. With no one who applied to be the voice of Hope, I decided to have myself play the voice of Hope and I made sure to agree this with my unit leaders prior to filming. Also, the feedback from my tutors I took onboard was that the ending should be more positive, and I fully agreed and went onboard with this feedback.
