Contingency Plan
wilThere are many issues that i may be faced with throughout my Final Major project, this plan is to make sure i have actions in place to stop these issues from happening and find a resolution for these. One massive issue that i may be faced with if unreliable actors this will cause me many issues especially if these actors do not turn up or cancel last minute. This will be a big problem for me as time management is crucial with my filming and by actors being unreliable this will really effect the rate of my progression. The best option for me to have a solution for this in place is too use less people in my short film so the chances of them being unreliable will be less and also making sure i have some backup actors in place so if needs be i can contact them at short notice. This is not ideal though as this can also be very unreliable as people are less free with short notice. A solution for this however is to make sure these backup actors know the times and dates that i will be filming on and to make sure they are available for this time.
Another big issue that i may be faced with is technical issues with equipment and editing software. This could seriously cause me issues as i need all equipment to be reliable and ready to be used at all times as many ideas will come to me at random moments and by having a reliable camera it will make it a lot easier for me to film my short film and get the best footage possible. I will also need to check all equipment before use to make sure it all works as this will save me valuable time when knowing when to go out and film and when not to. For example making sure my camera is fully charged before filming is key, if my camera runs out of battery whilst filming i will not be able to use it without a connection to electricity, this could be very inconvenient for me as some places where i will be filming will not have this, The best way to make sure this does not happen is to fully charge my camera over night to make sure the battery is fully charged, also just in case i do have an issues with my camera i will make sure someone present has access to a backup camera that i could use if i do have serious issues.
The editing software premier pro may also cause me issues as i have been faced with these in the past. The best way for me to solve this and make sure i dont face these issues again is too make sure i am using the latest version of premier pro so i can use all of the editing features to the best i can without facing as many issues. I will also need to make sure i have a reliable storage device to save my edit on and make sure its backed up, this will stop me from losing any footage and progress with editing it.
One issue that i may have to deal with is the weather conditions on the days i have for filming on my production schedule. For example this may cause me serious issues with equipment and if my other shots are filmed in different weather conditions. The best way for me to solve this issue will be to check the weather forecasts before filming and also to have alternative dates for filming that all my actors can make, this will help me deal with the issue of weather or actors not turning up as i can have back up dates set what will work best for them.

Technology and Equipment issues
Throughout my production i will need to use technology and certain equipment to film my short film to capture the best possible quality. For example i am going to need to borrow a zoom microphone to capture my voiceovers and therefore this will help be record these better. However one issue that i may face with this however is issues with the micro SD card getting corrupted or footage not being saved properly or being left on the SD card. This could seriously cause me issues as i could lose crucial footage. This will massively slow down my filming process what will mean i wont be able to focus on filming in as much detail as i need it to be at. There are many equipment issues that i may be faced with especially with the editing process of my production. The main issues that i might face with this is my footage not importing properly, this will be an issue for me as it will slow down my editing process and it will mean that i wont be able to start evaluating my production as fast and i will have to wait longer to receive feedback from my peers until my final edit is completed and uploaded. I will need to make sure all equipment is fully charged and ready to be used. This can be a massive issue with technology as if this is not prepared for it will mean that i will need a source of power to charge my equipment what wont be very easy to acquire especially when im going to be filming in public areas.
