What to take and do at a recce.

This is what i should do when i go to visit the location and complete the recce, which all needs to be done long before we start filming:
  • Is there restrooms nearby?
  • Does it need a permit?
  • Suitable parking?
  • Sound distractions? Such as aeroplanes flying in the sky above you, birds nests with birds chirping, or internal sounds such as fridges and air conditioning vents etc,
  • Do the people nearby mind you filming?
  • Is there any electrical outlets?
  • Is there any locations where you can purchase food and drink nearby?
  • What is the ground surface like? We will not want to film on a boggy muddy field.
  • Is there times that we will have to be there by and left by? Such as if we were filming in the school, we would have to be out by a certain time, which would be the closing time of the school.
  • We should always remember to take photographs of the area when on the recce so we can look back at them and choose the best locations for each scene.
  • Is it easy to travel to? and how will we do it?
