P4: Final Planning Materials

In unit 2, I learnt about the different preproduction documents created to aid the production of media products. For my foley sounds, I have created a script (includes dialogue) so I can record a voiceover for my animation, asset tables to help me collect my assets together and show the legal information. Furthermore in my P3 post, you can see the storyboard I created to show the chronological sequence of my scenes, a GANTT chart so I can plan our the timeline and deadlines for this project, a recce, materials list to explain what materials I will use to make my foley sounds.

Club Europe Animation Script

The UK, France, Spain and Italy are just a few countries home to some of the most famous tourist attractions: Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, The Louvre Museum, The Eiffel Tower, La Sagrada Familia, The Leaning Tower of Pisa…. Soon you’ll be visiting a country with your school or college and taking part in a music festival or sports tour with us, Club Europe.

But back to the present. Right now, you’re stuck at home panicking. Your room is a mess, you don’t know what to pack and you have no idea what to do at the airport.

Don’t worry! We’ve got your back! This is Club Europe’s guide to packing and preparing for your first holiday abroad.

First, there are some things you will need to check before you can fly. have you exchanged some of your money for the currency of the place you are visiting, Have you checked your passport to see if it is valid, have you booked your accommodation and flights… Wait, you don’t know what a passport is? A passport is a legal document that confirms your citizenship and identity. We need these to leave the country and get on the plane, but also to enter other countries. Your passport needs to be up to date because it contains important personal information such as your name, birthday, signature, photograph, passport number, the date of issue and expiry. Now that you have organised everything, you can finally start packing!

Step 1: Make a checklist. Instead of running around wondering what you need to pack, why don’t you create a checklist? Look around your home and see what you will need to take with you. There are certain items you are not allowed to take with you on your flight, so remember to check the list to see what items you are allowed to take with you.

Step 2: Gather things together. Get your clothes, toothbrush and other items and put them next to your suitcase, fold your clothes neatly and make sure you have everything you will need.

Step 3: Now its time to pack your suitcase. First you should put your heavier items near the bottom of the suitcase so it won’t fall over when you stand it up. you can roll your clothes up or fold them. Shoes can be stuffed with socks and other items; toiletries can be put together in a resealable plastic bag. Put personal items in a carry-on bag such as a rucksack so they don’t get lost. Don’t forget to put any money you will need or other necessities like your passport in your carry-on bag. If you are taking an instrument for your Club Europe tour, remember to always pack your instrument in a case so it doesn’t get damaged. It is advisable to have tag on your suitcase that has your name, phone number and email in case it gets lost.

Step 4: Plan your day. Whatever you do, don’t wake up late, rush to the airport and forget any of your belongings, especially your passport or some money. Make a GANTT chart and plan your time. What time will you get up, how long will it take for you get ready? Take the coach and plane times into consideration.

 Step 5: Airport Protocol. Remember to keep a hold of your passport. You will have to go through lots of different rooms before being allowed to fly. First you need to check in, they will look at your flight documents and give you a boarding pass which is your plane ticket to get on the plane. Next you will have to go through airport security. They will check your passport and your plane ticket. You will have to place your bags and personal belongings on a tray, these will go through an x-ray machine on a conveyer belt, and you will have to walk through a metal detector. Afterwards you can pick your belongings up. Your suitcase will then be weighed and placed on a conveyer belt where it will be taken into the plane.  You will then get to the plane gate where your legal documents and plane ticket will be examined. When the gates open, your ticket will be checked again, and you can board the plane. Now you can find your seat, fasten your seatbelt, and relax.

Step 6: Have fun! Thank you for choosing Club Europe for your tour, we hope you have a great time!

 

  Here is the voiceover script I have used for the Unit 10 Club Europe Animation and the Unit 16 Creation and Uses of Sound and Media. I will use a microphone that I can speak into with a shock mount and in a quiet room so the voiceovers will be clear and easy to hear.

Location Recce

I have created a location recce to take note of important information I need to know such as: safety issues, where I will record my foley sounds, if I have access to the area or need to ask for permission... I haven't included information about my home since this personal information.

Prepared by		Faith Smith		Date				3.02.2023
Location Details		I am going to record my foley sounds in these locations: Doncaster UTC and at home. I chose these locations because I think I will be able to record all my foley sounds there.
Scene/Purpose of filming		I have been asked to create foley sounds for my Club Europe animation. I will need record sounds that you can only find in those locations.
Site Contact Name			Doncaster UTC Media Cupboard and around the college			Site Address			College Rd Doncaster  DN1 3BF
Contact telephone			01302 976515			Point of access			Front doors
Permissions			I am a student there so I will not need permission to get into the building. However, I will need permission from my teachers to record in there.			Availability			When students are not in there, I can use the room if I have permission.
Points of Interest			Media cupboard, security gates etc			Suitability/Possible sounds			Crowded place, check in, metal detector, footsteps foley sounds etc
Safety Issues			Be wary of stairs, don’t drop equipment, don’t trip…			Electricity Supply			Electricity supply from the plug sockets. Most likely won’t need it depending on the equipment, might use batteries instead.
						Noise			Because I am recording audio, I need to be in a quiet area. Some noises I might hear around college are: People talking and walking around…
