2. Introduction to the Module This module represents a culmination of a six month programme.
You will be expected to make significant contributions to a limited number of these productions by taking on particular roles. Just how you balance your roles will be agreed upon and managed through a series of individual tutorials with your allocated tutor. The production will evolve through weekly production meetings, managed by an allocated tutor and with all key contributors in attendance. This module guide includes all of the documentation to support this and should be relied upon as an on-going reference tool.

4. Outline Delivery
INTRODUCTION
The Production
The project represents an opportunity for the clients to tell a story and contribute to a substantial film made to a high standard and through an industrial model. We strongly encourage a sense of ownership and identity amongst key players within the production. The Project module will comprise a two-part, 10 minute short film, showing scenes of a crime and the consequences. These could be documentary, docudrama, drama, music video or something more experimental
The production will be allocated a supervising tutor. The production will evolve through weekly production meetings, it is vital that all clients holding key roles attend the weekly production meetings, along with the tutor supervising that production.
Your Contribution to the Production
We expect utmost commitment and responsibility from you throughout this module.
You must pitch an idea for the production by week two. The group will discuss and vote on the different projects and the winning idea will be scripted.
You will have a combination of roles to fulfil in the module from producer to runner which will provide you with the opportunity to gain the widest range of skills and experience possible over the next six months.
Other Potential Contributors
Music and sound design for your film. You are encouraged to develop your own lyrics and sound track.

Once the script has been developed and finalised, roles are allocated in two basic sections; the cast and the crew who work with the director and the qualified practitioners. The cast will then rehearse the script and block the scenes. This is done in smaller groups and is intended to build confidence and communication skills and to encourage working as part of a team. You will learn many skills including camera angles, focusing, framing and different movements for a camera shot. You will also learn about lighting and the importance of lighting a set correctly to capture the emotional content of a scene as well as learning about recording and how to capture and relate a story using sound and sound design. Editing is the final discipline and will show you how to log and transfer footage, build the footage scene by scene to tell the story and how to add sound effects and music to build tension, atmosphere and emotion into each scene. You will develop a delivery plan working closely with the production team.
The purpose of the delivery plan is to ensure that the timescales and outcomes are achieved. It is a useful guidance tool to keep the timescales on track. The importance of this discipline is to enable you to experience and learn time and management skills. As the process gets under way, you will have on-going production meetings, discussions and your performance and progress will be kept under constant review against your delivery plan. After the pre-production phase, we move into the actual production of the film. Each member of the group will work alongside our own crewmembers. At this point, all the learning and skills developed over the previous months come together both individually and within the group. You will also be filming and editing your own footage of a “behind the scenes” documentary to demonstrate what you have learned, how you have progressed and how you have engaged with the whole process. The post-production stage is broken down into two main sections, the editing of the footage and the composing of the music. One of the sections in your groups will rehearse and develop the sound track. You will then go into the recording studio to record your songs and will also learn the technical side of producing a sound track. An initial assessment and evaluation is carried out for each participant and after four weeks, each person will complete their own feedback form and again at four weekly intervals until the final feedback is submitted at the

end of the project. In this way, those with the responsibility for effective delivery of the programme are immediately aware of any issues as they arise and can address them with you and make any adjustments necessary to ensure that the project remains on course and that you are given the best opportunity to make the most of the programme. Pre Production Pack
The pre-production pack includes a range of documents that, when combined, will comprise a “bible” for your production. Each and every section is essential.
The structure of the PPP has been very carefully thought out and it is essential that each stage is completed before you proceed to the next stage. Not only will this fully prepare you for production the PPP also enables those outside of your production team to assess your readiness for production and advise accordingly, in consultation with the supervising tutor. The PPP main elements:
1) Production Schedule 2) Shooting Schedule 3) Call Sheets 4) Risk Assessment 5) Permission and disclaimer
Your Production will not be green-lit until you have submitted all of the above.
