Planning: classification

Who are the bbfc?
The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), before 1985 known as British Board of Film Censors, is a non-governmental organization, founded by the film industry in 1912 and responsible for the national classification and censorship of films within the United Kingdom.
What rating is are film?
I believe that are film would be rated a 15, as a 15 is described as by the bbfc "No-one under 15 is allowed to see a 15 film at the cinema or buy/rent a 15 rated video. 15 rated works are not suitable for children under 15 years of age."
A 15 can include any of these:



•   strong violence
•  frequent strong language (e.g. 'f***').
•   portrayals of sexual activity
•   strong verbal references to sex
•   sexual nudity
•   brief scenes of sexual violence or verbal references to sexual violence
•   discriminatory language or behaviour
•   drug taking






I believe that are film would come under this rating as later on in the film we would try to include an actual crash scene, this would include a shot of the driver injured with some blood and gore. We would also have strong language and there might be some form of drug taking involved, these are all seriotypical iconograpys of a race film/ any sport film.

Planning: scripting

There will not be many lines that are filmed, there will be the main characters line at the end of the opening, this line will read "this is my story"

There will be the lines of the race regulators, one will read "please sign this" the other will read "yea, all good hear".

There will also be an over voice of commenting of a race, we will either find un-copyrighted material for some off it, but there will be parts in which we will need to pre-record are own voices or others to make it more believable as are driver has a specific name that must be said in-order for the race to seem genuine.

The pre-recorded voices must say, "and welcome to the 1995 ..... final, which is held at silver stone race track"  "and here come the racer the whole crowd has been rooting for, James Parker"
"And young Parker is coming to the last corner" "here he is and.. Oh my god, James has crashed on the last corner, this looks bad guys, I can't see how young Parker can come back from this or even survive from it"

The parts that we may need to find un-copyrighted recordings for will be the cheering and maybe some suprised reaction for the crash. But the largest un-copyrighted recording that we will need, is the crash sound.

Planning: location scouting

Location Scouting

For our location, we needed somewhere that would portray a racing film straight away, and obviously a race track is the best best to do this. It was easy to organise as my school is right next to it, so we didn't need permission from Silverstone as we didn't actually go onto the track. This is a good area to film as there is a lot of space, which means we have a lot more options with the camera. Also, the Silverstone logo will let the audience know immediately that this is a car film as Silverstone is one of the most famous race tracks in the world. This also means we can film a car in it's stereotypical location, which will give the audience the idea that this is a car film.

The photo below is a picture of garages, where we hope to film in one of them. This may be hard as we'll have to ask if we're allowed to film in there, and even if we are, we'll need to scout it out first as we don't know exactly what they'll look like inside, as it might not be suitable for what we're trying to do, which is to create a silhouette of a man walking towards the light.

Planning: makeup

Make up

We have 1 character, but he'll be shown in different times, so the make up will help to portray an injury. We want him to have a burn on one side of his face, so to do this we'll need watch some tutorials, and this one seems to be the best https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDjT9z6Spgw

We'll have to practise this before filming day so we know exactly what we're doing so we don't waste

time trying and probably failing to do it. 

This image shows the look we're going for, it doesn't cover the whole face, as that would be a lot harder to

do, as well as more time consuming, and we don't have much time to do this. However, it does cover a majority

of the face and clearly shows a burn scar.

Planning: lightning

Lighting

We will be filming in a dark garage for most of it, but there will be natural lighting coming from behind, to create a silhouette so we can't see his face, which is the effect we want, so any more light will not show the silhouette. However, when he gets close to the camera at the end, we want to see his face, so we might need one light so we can see his scars etc. but nothing too drastic

Other than that, we'll be filming outside in the day time, so we won't need anymore extra light as natural light will be fine

Planning: legality of production

Risk  
Car racing round the track, possibly could hit someone.

When
When crossing the track to film.

Planing
Make sure we look both ways and listen out for the car.


We have been given premition through the collage to film on the track on a set day.

Planing: casting

there is not much casting needed, the only cast member who needed an audition was the actor for the main character. Me and Alex have decided the I would play the main character, I have been in many school productions at my old school and I have done many drama and acting classes, this was enough  for both me and Alex to agree on me playing the main character.

There will also be some background characters, who do not really need and audition as they will not have any lines and will be there to mainly there to make the shots look busy and fill the empty spaces.
