Planning
Thursday 25th June
As we cannot make a story board because we do not know what we are allowed to film in and around kenya, i have made a selection of shots that we would like to film while out there.

Planning Media Shots;

• A variety of shots of the students at the elephant sanctuary with the elephants.
• On Safari: animals, with the camera jolting to create an effect of the car moving.
• Girls walking off the plane with their rucksacks with the Kenyan airport behind. (We could even cheat and film a plane coming into land that isn’t ours yet say it was ours)
• Interviews of the gap year students (Kenya cam) to show their feelings and attitudes towards the trip and the way of life out in Kenya.
• Building the schools and teaching the children, portrays a feeling of a community coming together and shows how strangers can get along and help each other.
• Selina’s birthday celebration to show how they celebrate special occasions such as birthdays. Mrs Yeomans has said there will be some kind of celebration, Selina is excited and nervous about this but thinks it will be a great experience.
• Shots of the children and the tribes: make them come up into the camera so they look intrigued and the audience can relate to the emotions they have.
• Top of the mountain at sunrise, pan across the mountain to show the sunrise and the atmosphere that is up there.
• Walking along the beach, white sand and bright blue sea, show the beach life with the stalls along it and the Kenyans selling their goods and getting along with their normal lives.

We need to be prepared to film anything unexpected, meaning we need to have our camcorder on us at all time. If this isn’t possible, then we need to have a stills camera.
