3. IDEA DEVELOPMENT
We have decided to replicate a short from an SNL
sketch released in 2007. We have chosen this sketch as
we enjoy the overall feel, humour and context. This
piece should be somewhat easy to replicate as the
editing is simple and the only major concern would be
getting the shots identical.
The only difficulties we have encountered with
this project are finding the right location to
film in, and matching the original characters
outfits. We have overcome these challenges by
doing multiple location recces, and visiting
many charity shops in Exeter to find the right
clothes. This is important as we want the remake
to be perfect and of a high standard.
Cast and crew list We have decided to do this project together in addition to the help of a friend so assist with camera angles and another as an additional actor. This way we reduce the risk of some members of the crew being absent as everyone needed. All of these members of cast and crew would be easy to call upon if re-shoots are needed.
JEZ HEARD: Producer, actor, filming and
editor
SKYE FRASER: Director, Actor, Filming
MEADOW MARKS: Assistant camera, Makeup
DAN ROBERTSON: Actor
4. PERSMISSION AND CONSENT
As we are using a person from inside
of college, we need to get them to
sign a contributor consent form as
they will be in the video, and it
could get possibly shown outside of
college, so we want to make sure we
have their consent.
5. RISK ASSESMENT
A risk assessment is made to insure the safety of the crew and actors. Pre-cautions are put in place in order to minimise risk of harm for the people working on our project.
Piece of equipment:
Hazard: Effect: Control Measures:
Camera DSLR (700D)
●Pain on impact
●High cost equipment
●May cause bruising if left on neck strap swinging freely.
●May be at risk of robbery or assault.
●Get the DSLR in hands at all times.
●Put the camera in a bag when not in use.
Tripod ●Trip hazard
●Injuries may occur if misplaced.
● Place the tripod clearly and if required put up a sign to warn pedestrians.
Fake gun ●Small parts choking hazard
●Air powered dart
●If swallowed may cause serious damage
●Dart may cause eye damage
●Keep dart out of the gun
6. LOCATION RECCE
To replicate the scene all filming must be done in a singular location. This will be in the home of one of the cast and crew. We have chosen this location as it will help to create the “at home” look that the scene has.

8. STORYBOARD
9. ADDITIONAL DECISIONS Budget: Our budget will be almost non-existent as I will be using materials I already own. Luckily, the college provides all camera equipment needed. Additional cost may be discovered as the project goes on. Other props such as: fake blood and a fake gun have been purchased but were both only one pound each, thus keeping the budget minimal.
Makeup and props: We used fake blood to try to replicate the blood in the short. We tried to place each drop as accurately as possible.
Costume: Unfortunately despite looking, we couldn’t find any similar props in charity shops on 2 separate days of looking. This reduced accuracy but enabled us to spend more time on the task at hand rather than looking for props.
Setup and filming: Whilst filming, we had both the storyboard and the original clip playing so we could match up to shots perfectly as possible. This way we could accurately remake the scene.
Editing: During the edit I had the original clip running on a different track on the timeline with the opacity turned half way down. This way I could easy compare the original to the remake. I altered the colour correction on each scene to try to make it match as close as possible. I slowed down certain clips to match the slow motion effect of the original clip. In addition to this I added white flashes to replicate those seen in the short. Finally I used the event pan crop to match the clips.
