A) LIGHTING
In terms of lighting, at first I wanted to use natural lighting due to the change in season ensuring that the weather would be nice on most days and the amount of sunlight will be just right to make it fit the purpose of my production.
However, due to increase in winds and the weather being a source which isn't 100% reliable, I have decided to use artificial lighting instead which will be done using a lamp. Doing this will be better for me in my opinion, because it means that I can shoot whenever I wish and I will not have to worry about the set blowing away in the process.
B) SUITABILITY FOR CAMERA SHOTS, ANGLES AND MOVEMENTS
Since my production is a stop motion animation, the best option would be to keep the camera fixed in one position and allow the character to move.
However, I will experiment using 3 different shot types to keep my animation interesting and look pleasing to the human eye. These include:
- Mid shot
- Extreme close up
- Birds eye view

C) BLOCKING
I decided to test out my sets both outside and inside to see which would be the best location to film in.
Overall, I noticed both positives and negatives about each location and have decided to stick to doing the filming inside due to the there being not as many negatives with this in comparison to outside.
Positives about outside:
- The sunlight did not move as often as expected
- There was little noise outside which meant no distractions
- Plenty of space to work and move around in
Negatives:
- The wind blew the set away multiple times (had to be stuck down as a result)
- The character could not stand in place due to the intensity of wind
- The intensity of sunlight meant that it was tricky to see what was being filmed
Positives about inside:
- There was no wind to blow the set away
- The light was not too harsh to the eyes which meant filming would be easier
- There was plenty of space to move around and work in
Negatives about inside:
- Character would not stand due to carpet so location has to be moved from my bedroom to the dining room where there is wooden floors
D) MISE-EN-SCENE
To add realism to my production, I will add some 3D elements which will be a part of each scene. Some of these will be made from cardboard and some will use real life objects. These include:
- A table in the kitchen (made from cardboard)
- A knife which will be used to slice the character (this will be a real knife)
- A chopping board (made from cardboard)
- Buildings which the character will explore (made from cardboard)
- A little shopping trolley (this will be a real object and will be used as an escape route for the character to escape from the supermarket).
E) TECHNICAL
Within my model, I will have a shopping trolley which has the ability to move with its wheels. This will be something which has already been made from metal (a small toy) and it will be used as an escape route for Mr Carrot to use to escape from the supermarket.
