Documentary Unit - Script Finalised/ Risk Assessment/ Scouting Locations

In the final day before the easter break we made sure we completed the vital parts of our project. We got our camera booked as well as the fig rig and lighting equipment to make sure that we get the highest possible quality on the handheld shots, which in our documentary there may be a few.

We got the script finalised after a final meeting with Helen and a few adjustments were made as well as one big segment about pole exercising based in strood. An idea we'd never have thought of but Helen suggested it as she noticed it whilst driving and said it could be a more "extreme" exercise to make it a little more humorous. We haven't made contact yet, so it could be a no, but it's an addition we'd now like to add. As well as a few small mistakes about using COMM/PTC/SYNC in the wrong areas.

We also got our risk assessment sorted, after completing a few already for the course it was a lot simpler now and we got it signed off first time from Helen. It now means after easter we can collect all the equipment we need and start filming on the Tuesday. We need to get a timetable sorted so we know what we will film on each day - We expect to film for 4 days and have one day recording audio at Cailan's as he has a good microphone that will be great for voice overs!

Also George and I went to one of our possible locations - Weavering Heath, not that far from the studios and would be used for our running and cycling scenes. We think it would be a good location and if keep that part in the project we think it would be ideal.

Here are some pictures of the location - A lot of it is overgrown but there is enough usable space to make a good sequence. The road "Shepherds Gate Drive" might be a possible location as well we can film.
