Why I need to be prepared like this
I need to be prepared for all this listed below because the shoot will not be able to carry on if something goes wrong below are also all the solutions to anything I believe could go wrong.
Equipment and problems that can occur:
Camera
Keep the camera around my neck so it doesn't get dropped or stolen
If it rains cover camera with plastic bag and take an umbrella
If I run out of space take more SD cards (I have a 64GB which is 2000+ images, I also clear the SD card before you go)
If I run out of battery take spare batteries in camera case
55mm lens/80mm lens
Laptop/cables to connect the camera
Tripod
Lighting/light refractors (pack the night before and leave by the door, leave a note on the door handle reminding me to take it)
Natural light - if day is bad photoshop
Props - I really hope my guitar doesn't break, I'm not buying a new one
Costume - I hope I'm wearing it when I go to the shoot
Make up (my everyday make up)
Backdrop
Timer and remote
Location:
Log Cabin (wooden walls for back drop)
White wall (in room)
Bed (laying on, sitting on)
Banister (siting on, leaning on)
Facilites:
Toilet breaks (in my toilet)
Food breaks (from my kitchen)
Phone incase of emergency (take charger)
Personnel:
Me - I have a tripod (no-one has to hold it)
- I have a timer on the camera which can be triggered by a remote or set to go off
- My make up is going to be natural therefore I can do it myself
- Hair will be natural
A good start Emily, be sure to consider what facilities and potential problems you might encounter for a 'on location' shoot. Consider what additional elements you will need for you and the 'crew' when you are away from home. Planning and being prepared for the worst case scenarios/issues will really save time when away from convenient locations.
