Production planning

Planning a shoot
in Scottish Borders.

Borders work is planned around travel between locations, venue or estate access, seasonal conditions and the most useful light. One production day can often cover people, interiors, products and wider environmental context.

Define the audience, key message, contributors, channels, approximate duration and whether stills or aerial work should be combined.
