Primary research- is when you go out and find things out first hand from the people

• surveys
• questionare
• interview

secondary research-is when you go out and find out what you need to know form someone else ie. books, google search.

LO:3 Forms

once a production schedule of the task is organised, the following forms need creating

• call sheet
• consent form
• location release

•  If you are filming you need a call  sheet
• you would make this before the shoot
• give this to your production sheet few days prior
• a contingency plan is made encase it goes wrong i.e. backing up data
•    

A production schedule would include when things concerning production would happen

• hard ware
• software
• equipment

this is important because you need to know where you need to be and when i.e. at a certain venue to film on a certain date.

• organisation i.e. people/places

a producer of a product would make a production schedule (admin)

everyone involved in the production proses would see the production schedule.

a production plan is a project management tool.

you would use things like Microsoft excel because you can easily ad information about your task

identify one type of project management tool that could be used to keep track of the project tasks and explain why it is suitable for this task [3]

A production schedule could be used as a product management tool to keep track of the project tasks because it concisely shows when a task is suppose to be done by and how ling it should take which every one can access.

What dose crowed funding mean

•Crowd finding is where an independent film gets its revenue from the public through donations and they get rewards in return i.e. tickets to the premier. Correct

Two advantages of and independent project

no subsisaries so the money goes all into your project.

Can't market the project because you dont have the money

Difficult to let people know about your project and know you want funding.
