Recce for Superdrug

Permission needed: (Contact details)

The location were going to film at is 13 Clarence Rd E, Weston-super-Mare

BS23 4BP, no permission is needed as it is an open space to the general
public.

Traffic Problems: (How we dealt with sound/visuals from passing

cars)
The location were choosing to film at is in a family park in the center of
Weston the outer of the park is surrounded by 6ft tall walls so visuals from
cars passing wont be a problem while filming. For this advert weve
chosen to have a lot going on in the background to match the theme of
our hair advert so visuals from people cycling, running or playing in the
background wont be a problem. In addition to this we also plan to have a
soundtrack over our footage so audio from our surroundings wont be a
problem.

Local conditions: (Could the weather effect filming)

For our filming, we plan to complete all footage outside so we

have to ensure that the weather is nice and sunny to match the
atmosphere of our advert so by heading out today and
completing this recce I could plan my day around the weather
forecast:

intrusions: (Passers-by music, trains, and general filming

interruptions)
As this projects audio wont be a concern as we dont intend to
include it, audio from our chosen soundtrack will play over the
top. However, there could be filming interruptions from things
such as reflections in mirrors or surfaces from both people and
camera crew, to resolve this we can evaluate mise on scene
before shooting to look for a potential problem and change
them before filming so that we dont need to return to the
location to film at a later date.

Continuity: (Is anything likely to change at this location

e.g. posters)

The continuity at this location is very consistent as were only

filming for a short amount of time for one filming slot we dont
need to worry about continuity, however if the audio/filing isnt
sufficient once left the location, we may then need to return. To
resolve the continuity in this we can ask anyone being filmed to
wear the same clothing and style their hair to the same as
previously. We will also have to ensure that any props like
flowers and hair sprays to be used the same. Any posters in the
background or beds of flowers to still be in season.

Electricity and lighting issues/sound: (Will we need an

electric supply and is there access to one? Is sound
equipment needed)

Due to us wanting to film in natural daylight we wont need any

additional light boxes etc., we plan to use a slider for panning
shots, and two X70s for a crisp image. The location doesnt
have access to Wi-Fi as were outside however due to us filming
for a short amount of time instead we will just bring extra spare
batteries to cover ourselves in case we run out but asides from
that this wont be too much of a problem.

Welfare: (Can your crew/actors get refreshments and

use toilets, and will they need to stay overnight at the
