Contingency Plans
Before, any scheduled
filming took place and before I was granted permission to film in the area of
my choice, I knew I had to have a location contingency plan. Subsequently,
there could have been a crisis on the day of shooting, for example an accident,
natural disaster or a potential challenge may have occurred and therefore I
would have had to have a backup plan. If any of these factors occurred, then my
actors were prepared to reshoot on an alternative date.
Contingency plans relating to
permission for an alternative date from the London Borough of Suttons
‘Filmfixer’ department was also secured with my contact, as this was part of my
AS media project and I was assured that students were supported, as long as the
activity was not of an inappropriate nature and all health and safety
regulations were adhered to, so that no member of the public was
inconvenienced. However, because I did not want to risk anything happening, I
took precautions and commenced seeking permission to film in a different
location. My second location choice was Centrale Shopping Centre, located in
Croydon.
