Group Meeting #4- 11th October 2016

The agenda for this meeting was to see where everyone is at regarding own research and job roles.

We discussed the current state of the script and when it would be finalised so we could have more of an understanding of what sound design we can implement for the film.

I brought up the subject of costume design as I wanted to know what sort of materials Lauren had in mind. I stressed the importance of soft materials such as cotton; this is because if we decide to use a Lav microphone, we need to be able to reduce the noise of clothing as much as possible and having soft materials can help reduce this risk. Lauren gladly took this on board.

I also asked that when it came to the size of the Actors/Actresses that we were to be told. The reason I brought this up is because I have been looking into buying body belts and ankle straps specifically designed for Lav microphone packs. These make it easy to hide the transmitter from the camera and eliminates the use of clipping it to belts or trousers to have it then be covered by another piece of clothing.

This then brought us onto the subject of the budget. Me, Dan and Sam are to strictly keep ours audio based whilst the others are to use theirs for other aspects of the film.

Overall a good meeting as we discussed further plans of the project, established where everyone is with research and the script and established a budget.
