Pre production- location scouting/release

  The following are two documents that are partially completed. This was their status before going to the location. I will be filling in the rest of the form with the relevant contact at the Museum and Winter Gardens. This form allows me to prove that I have permission to film on the premises so that an issue does arise around filming on their venue, I can back it up with this.



Upon attending said location, I enquired whether permission was needed to film in their building. I was told that I was free to film as long it didn't include the faces of any children. Of course, that meant that I had a green light to film and didn't need written

This was as follows: " Several exceptions allow copyright works to be used for educational purposes, such as: the copying of works in any medium as long as the use is solely to illustrate a point, it is not done for commercial purposes, it is accompanied by a sufficient acknowledgement, and the use is fair dealing. This means minor uses, such as displaying a few lines of poetry on an interactive whiteboard, are permitted, but uses which would undermine sales of teaching materials are not performing, playing or showing copyright works in a school, university or other educational establishment for educational purposes. However, it only applies if ...

Pre Production- Script

  This post contains my script. I originally did not have one or intend to write one but my audience feedback has told me that this is something that would be worthwhile including. As said on other posts, I did not want a narration over the entire video.
