Webisode Production Requirements Report

In this report i will showing all the requirements that i need in order to make sure my web serial is able to happen successfully. this plan is to ensure that  that the project is delivered by the deadline.

Finance

in order for this project to be successful i am going to need to decided where i am going to get my source of finance from. this is important because if i do not have a source of fiance then i will not have enough funds to pay for things like Crew members wages, Recording equipment, Catering and even Editing. Usually web serials can be funded by kick starters, this means that people who are supporting the product donate their own money in order to make sure the project can be funded.

Budget requirements will need to set in order to make sure we are spending the right amount of money on facilities, for example paying for the transport , talent (cast/actor) crew (production), materials, facility hire (studio or edit suite). However for this project i will not need as much funding, this is because i will be using equipment for ctk sidcup free of charge, also i will not need to pay for travel as i am 17 and my travel is free when using buses in London. i will not need to pay for talent such as actors and crew, this is because i have convinced my friends and classmates to help me out free of charge.

Time

In the media business deadlines are very important. without deadlines the product will not be released on time , if the product is not released on time then it will cause the audience to be upset, also it will cost me more money as i will have to pay for extra use of equipment e.g Camera, microphones.

I will need to make sure that i have set out enough time to book the necessary equipment from CTK Sidcup. in this case i will need to make sure that i will have a working camera. if i don't have a camera i wont be able to film the web serial.

I have also taken into consideration the availability of personals, i am going to have to keep the contact details of each team member, this is so that i will be able to tell necessary information , like where we will be meeting.

Crew and Personnel

As i have no budget the size of me team is looking to be between 5- people, this is because i would have to ask favour from friends in order to help out with the project.Whereas a project such as VGHS would have over 100 people for cast and crew. their roles could vary from runners to camera man and even sound guys.

Facilities

In this project i am going need need facilities in order to make sure that i am able to shoot the one minute short film. the production equipment i will need is a camera and a tripod. however VGHS would need more things such as reflectors, gels , stabilizer and even lenses

in order for my project to go forth i am going to have some post production , this includes using software like final cut pro x to edit all the footage that has been shot, Ctk Sidcup have an editing suite available for me to use in order to edit all my footage.

Hiring out facilities can be costly , it can cost up to £2300+ to hire out equipment for 7 days, on one hand this is good because this ensure that the equipment and resources are top notch and fully functional on the other hand the colleges resources are free to use , this is idle for me as i will be looking to put in the least amount as money as i need to, as i am not being funded.

however as i am doing this part of a college assignment , Christ the king will be responsible for  supplying me with: A lighting kit, Camera and Tripod. Another facility they will be able to provide me with is a mac suite to edit the footage we have gathered.

Materials

for my project i will need to think about what music i will use. however i can not just pick any song that i want to be in this project, unless i score the piece of music myself or own the copyrights then i will not be able to use the audio in my film. "In a nutshell Royalty Free Music refers to a type of music licensing that allows the purchaser to pay for the music license only once and to use the music for as long as desired. For example you purchase a Royalty Free Music license for a video on your website"
Paying the royalties to music has its upsides, as you have a wider selection of music to choose from to be featured in your film.
