Week 20: Update of Final Advert Idea: Minutes and Location Permission Problems

Kit Kat Bar

Today we have been completing our work as individuals and as a group, we have been completing the tasks which we allocated to each member of the group from the production schedule and I have completed the task which I was allocated, which was the Treatment, this clearly explains the narrative of our TV Advert. On Friday me and Shona have also been completing the Shooting Schedule which shows the different shots to be covered throughout the filming of the television advert.

As a group today we had a meeting with Andy and we discussed the documents which we should have completed as individuals for our initial idea and research and this includes the Contingency Plan, The Treatment, The Script, The Storyboard, Pre-Production Journey, Research into Company and Brand Chosen for Initial Idea and a Content Analysis. I have completed these, but I have had improvements to my Contingency Plan such as including a issue that arose today which was that the location of Westgate Leisure Centre did not give us permission to film at the location on Monday 31st January, therefore this could be a problem that may arise within the Pre-Production stage on the Contingency Plan. As for Group documents me and Shona need to complete the Shooting Schedule for Friday, therefore we are ready to be able to film our television advert and everyone knows which shot is next within the advert.

A problem which arose today was that Westgate Leisure Centre did not give us permission to film at the location, last Friday me and Shona went to Westgate to ask if we could film our advert, they were unsure so asked us to contact another manager, Shona contacted the Catering Manager today and she said that we were not able to film there. The reason for this was that the vending machines which they have and we would need to use within our advert were not owned by Westgate Leisure Centre and therefore they were not able to give permission for this reason. Therefore we have had to re-think our location for next Monday and we have discussed other possible locations in the past and one of these was Chichester College as this had the facilities which we need and is easy to access, as a group we did really want to film out of the college but as we have not got permission we need to re-think our location to get permission for Monday. We will have a minutes meeting tomorrow to discuss this problem and how we will overcome it, we will also discuss as a group the tasks which still need to be completed for Friday 28th January.
