Shoot 2: Method Statement

Method Statement

Video Filming -  6:00pm – 8:00pm Tuesday 10^th of December 2013

Location – Leeds College of Art Studio Theater (Green Screen Scene).

For this section of the film, Thor and Loki battle for a maximum of 10 seconds across a lava background.

There will be two actors (one being director also who will over-see health and safety), a camera operator, a hair and makeup artist over seeing continuity (of the whole project), a sound recorder, and documenter. In total 6 people will be present.  All members will help carrying equipment up the moor and I will personally see that no one person carries too much (for the safety of the person and equipment.)

Due to the nature of the film, the two actors will wear leather costumes which will provide protection from small grazes if unforeseen accidents happen (such as tripping over a cape or getting hurt in a choreographed fight scene) but no safety equipment will be required.
