Here are some pictures of potential locations for my magazine
Reflection: This was actually one of those tasks I hate as I couldn't come up with any risks that were life threatening or hard to control as all variables that could cause an accident can be easily fixed by being careful. Which is why I repeated some points for different locations as its all in one location (my house) but just different parts of my house hence why its harder for me to figure out what could go really wrong. But even though this was a very boring task at least it helped my manage my time to make sure I have everything prepared beforehand.
Location #1
My house (outdoor garden) | |
Purpose of the scene: | introduce the scenery (garden) to show how natural it is to the audience: showing a magical front cover |
Media Language: | mise en scene: flowy (blue) princess dress in order for the magazine to look magical, with warm/bright colored background medium shot: to show the models facial expression with direct mode of address but its enough to the point where you can see how beautiful the dress is |
Pros of Location: | - flexible as its my own house and I can use any props available as well as adjust any natural scenery - realistic, since i'm using a real outdoor background it will look more natural and cohesive |
Cons of Location | - hard to control how bright or dark i want the light to be as it will be different in different times of the day - may not look very neat as not everything outdoor is as clean if it were to be done in a studio |
RISK ASSESSMENT | |
Potential Hazards | - My dog since she's not used to new people - Equipment issues as the garden is not very spacious and it can cause casualties if one gets hit or dropped - Hanging plants in the outdoor garden |
Evaluate Risks | - She can bark and go around the person she is not familiar with in this case its the model - Broken equipment can cause a delay and even cancel the entire shoot as there might not always be a backup on hand - If a tragedy happens due to unfavourable weather conditions (strong winds) it can cause the plant to fall and injure the model |
Control Measures | - Put my dog in another room in order for her to not disrupt the shoot - Make sure to handle all the equipment properly by having each checked and only used when its time to shoot and take pictures if not it will be properly placed somewhere else and regularly checked - check the weather before hand and check everything beforehand and see if it will still be used or needs to be removed |
Assign Responsibility and Timeframe | - Put my dog in a different room (28 jan) - Packing and keeping the camera safe (27 jan) - Check wether forecasts on weather (27 jan) |
Another garden near the outside gate (outdoor) | |
Purpose of the scene: | showcases the scenery of flowers of plants with the model to give it a natural look |
Media Language: | mise en scene: simple blue dress with flowers to match with the soft theme in order for it to flow with the already chaotic background filled with flowers medium shot: to show the face but as well as the body of the model in a professional look |
Pros of Location: | - natural setting gives a more realistic look and vibe - Has colorful aspects such as the flowers - Easier to manage everything around the garden as I can move it as much as I like |
Cons of Location | - Harder to control the lighting of the area if i want it to look brighter or warmer - Some parts look dirty on camera as its an outdoor setting and there will be dirt in some areas |
RISK ASSESSMENT | |
Potential Hazards | - Can be slippery from watering all the plants which can cause the model to fall - Feel discomfort from insects that may be around the location |
Evaluate Risks | - Making sure to water the plants before or not after the shoot to stop the floor from getting wet - The model getting uncomfortable causing them to be in a mood due to discomfort of their surroundings |
Control Measures | - Making sure to water the plants before or not after the shoot to stop the floor from getting wet - Prepare a insect spray and not taking that long to shoot outside just incase it uncomfortable for the model |
Assign Responsibility and Timeframe | - Packing and keeping the camera safe (27 jan) - Making sure everything is clean and not slippery (28 jan) |
My staircase (indoor) | |
Purpose of the scene: | mostly shows the model and introduce the clothes she's wearing as the main piece of the picture |
Media Language: | mise en scene: an iconic top piece which will mostly tie in the entire colour pallete for the whole magazine. I mostly envision a soft pastel piece in order to give my magazine a softer yet ethereal look medium shot: to show the face but as well as the body of the model in order to show the direct mode of address and as well as the models body language so that it looks professional |
Pros of Location: | - fully white background so its easier to control how bright I want the lighting to be - flexible as again its my house and I can adjust anything if something gets in the way |
Cons of Location | - not fully clean as the wall have some dark spots which makes it not that put together but thats a problem I could solve by editing it - does not look like a real studio even though it gives off an illusion that it was done in a studio because of the white background there are many things I cant control from how |
RISK ASSESSMENT | |
Potential Hazards | - Equipment issues if I drop the camera on accident and it rolled down the stairs causing it to break - The model can trip and fall on her dress if not careful which can cause an injury |
Evaluate Risks | - Broken equipment can cause a delay and even cancel the entire shoot as there might not always be a backup on hand - The model getting injured can also cause a delay and cancelation as there will be no replacement |
Control Measures | - Make sure to handle all the equipment properly by having each checked and only used when its time to shoot - Help the model every time she needs help coming down the stairs such as holding her dress |
Assign Responsibility and Timeframe | - Packing and keeping the camera safe (27 jan) - Prepare insect repellent (27 jan) |
