Filming a Documentary: Planning

In the film industry, planning can literally take years. The Director of Pixar's Inside Out said in a recent interview that they planned for three years, scraped that plan, and then started over. He also said that the planning phase was most important, as it is the place where the concept is born and the creative structure is constructed.

Thankfully, your plan will be much simpler. Follow the instructions below, and create your plan.

Instructions:

  • Create a new folder inside your Web Design Folder on your Google Drive. Call it Video Project Two
  • Navigate to the Student Project Planning Sheet
  • Make a copy.
  • Save it in your Video Project Two folder.
  • Change the title to "Last Name, First Name: Student Project Planning Sheet"
  • Fill it out.
  • Submit your plan through Google Classroom.
