CONSTRUCTION: INVESTIGATION BOARD

We created a investigation board as a prop as we needed it in our final scene which brings the drama to a climax. To make it look authentic, we took images (using screenshots) from our film, article, post-it, envelopes and photos. In the end, we all agreed that we should use a red string to bring the board together, as the use of red string is a traditional feature used on professional police investigation pin boards and seen in in police procedural dramas.

PLANNING: HOT SEATING

Hot seating is a strategy in which a character is interviewed by someone in the production group. This activity makes people understand the background, the character more in detail. We decided to have a hot seating with one of our character, Jack Masters.

We have planned that he is going to be interview by a police, making it more interesting and at the same time, emphasizing that this is a thriller genre.

PLANNING: RISK ASSESSMENT

We identified the key hazards and risk factors which acquire the potential to cause harm during the production of the film opening, III Days. The risk assessment highlights the hazards/risks posed to each scene, in which we provide precautions to avoid the possibility of implications occurring.
