Direction Unit - Script Breakdown

It's All In The Planning!

At the moment I'm trying to organise exactly what I need for my shoot, so here is my Script Breakdown!

Props:

A Round Table and Three Chairs

A Walking Cane for Watson

A Deck of Playing Cards

Poker Chips

Cigarettes, Lighter and Ashtray

Watson's Mobile Phone

Whiskey Glass and Two Beer Bottles

Cash Notes for the Pot

Locations:

At the moment I am currently pursuing permission to film in either The Drakes pub, in the centre of Maidstone by the river, or a smaller pub called The Fox, on Tunbridge Road. 

Crew:

Camera: Dan 

Sound/ Camera: Lauren W

Lighting: Fran

Production Design

I want the Pub to have a grimy feel, low lighting, like an underground poker club. With low ceilings and wooden floors. I want the pub to be empty, as though this is a secret thing that is occurring. 

Costume:

All three characters will be in shirts and ties. Sherlock stands out as being very stylish, grey suit and slicked back hair. Very fitted, with shiny black shoes. 

Equipment:

I will be using the SONY PMW EX1R, Boom mic,  a three point lighting kit and a reflector.

Budget:

My budget is currently zero, but I will help with expenses and will purchase props and drinks out of my own money.

Schedule

Im going to do a night shoot, that will last approx two hours. This is so the location I use can clear of public customers. My call time will therefore be 11pm. I am awaiting to schedule an exact date.

A shot list will follow soon.
