Recce P2 (e)

Recce - Recce - filming Recce /ˈrɛkiː/ is a military term that has been borrowed by media production in the United Kingdom, derived from "reconnoitre" (British English) "reconnoiter" (American English), the verb form of "reconnaissance". It is a pre-filming visit to a location to work out its suitability for shooting, including access to necessary facilities and assessment of any potential lighting or sound issues.

The city scenes will be filmed in London, and below I have indicated all the places I will be visiting to film for my music video. I have visited every location prior to filming and can confirm it will be a safe area to film. Although there will always be a risk as I am in a busy city, I will take the appropriate precautions to avoid problems or issues. Taking care of equipment and my own safety is the most important factor, therefore I will be alert throughout the day and ensure all equipment is safely positioned and when not needed will be supervised and in a protective bag. 

Below shows a Recce sheet for the London locations.

One of my locations will be Edgware road, London.

Piccadilly Circus - London

Coventry Street - London

The Ritz - London

The Sign Rehearsal Studio - Harbledown

Above is an image of the studio I will be using, it is clear that there is a fair amount of space for filming and equipment, and it has already been lit with purple, plink and white lighting, meaning little will have to be altered.

My house - Chestfield

Floor Plan of Studio

Above shows the floor plan for the studio in which I will film the band scenes for my music video. The studio is lit with purple and white lights and therefore will create a warm and interesting tone on camera, meaning I will not have to alter lighting when filming. As well as this, it has already been set up and the band are used to this, therefore I am bale to film from different angles and achieve good quality footage which can be used for continuity purposes. There is a large amount of space within the studio, which reduced any risk of tripping over cables or damage to equipment. The area is in a safe place in Harbledown, where there are few visitors whom could potentially steal equipment.
The safety of myself and the rest of the band in the main priority, and after spending many hours in the studio, I can assure it is a safe place to film for my music video.
