First new meeting with Dan and Clarice

This blog will serve as my portfolio for the project and will report on my actions during the project.

Today I met with my producer Clarice and sound designer Dan Walsh to discuss what actions needed to be taken next. During this meeting we:

1) Made a list of what we needed to do for the pre production of Paper Chase to run smoothly
2) Discussed what actors were needed for the role and how we would get them. We quickly agreed that Courtney Rezvani should reprise his role of Nathan Bailey and the other child character Jake would be auditioned for at the same child acting agency we found courttney (Tykes 2000 in Barnsley.) Aside from that it was agreed that the adult characters such as Georgia and Mr Mackey would be searched for in wider capacity than in Morning Glory and as well as the SHU drama society, acting websites such as starnow would be used to find potential actors.

3) Decided when/where Auditions are to be held. It was agreed that the sound room in Sheffield Hallam University’s Harmer building should be booked for these auditions.

4) We discussed what locations would be needed for filming. It was agreed that filming would take place in the outskirts of Sheffield and some of it (such as the shop and other interior scenes) would be filmed at stradbroke in Sheffield. Scouting of these locations would happen in the near future.
5) Scheduling needs to be made for the whole project and stuck to a closely as passible.


6) We also made some short term deadlines for the whole crew, for example, I have until next Tuesday to write any new material for Paper Chase, this new material will be used to lengthen the script and improve the script in any way possible.
