Unit 1.17 Locations and People

1.17 Locations
It is important to check out appropriate locations during the pre-production phase. This can save lots of time and money during the production stage.
Having crew, talent and equipment out on location can be very expensive and so you need to maximise the amount of material that you can produce in the shortest time possible.
Task 1- You also need to ensure that the locations are suitable for your purpose, that you can obtain permission, if necessary, to work at the location, and that you are aware of any risks and health and safety issues that may be present. You need a location release form for this.  Failure to get location release forms means that owners of a location could decide that they don’t want to let you use images of their location and this could have a serious effect on the product- scenes could have to be reshot or key scenes might have to be removed.
Explain what a location release form is and why it could be a problem if you did not get one.

Task 2-A location reconnaissance (or recce ) is a visit to a potential production location that is carried out during pre-production to ascertain its suitability.  
The information that you bring back from the recce will inform the production schedule as you will be able to find out about distance, access, power supply, potential problems over weather, health and safety issues and any costs associated with using that particular location.
Details from the recce should be recorded on a location visit sheet and attached to your production schedule so that all members of the production team are aware of the information that has been gathered.

Explain what a recce is and why you need one for the product you are planning to make?
