Contingency plan



Contingency Plan

Name: Katie Edmead, Charlie Searle, Daniel Morris

Production: ‘Make It Out Alive’ music video – Sarah Bird

Potential problems and how to overcome these problems:

Adverse weather conditions mean that filming becomes difficult:

-        Leave filming for a few days to let the weather settle or create a new scene in a different location that is inside to try and rectify the problem.

When throwing the torn up paper into the water, the shot does not go right but can only be done once:

-        Print more than one picture, rip them up and keep them separate so that we get multiple chances at the crucial shot.

Cannot get access to a lake/river to throw the picture into:

-        Possibly scatter the photograph on the ground, throw from a window, or put in the bin.
