Meeting 30th November: Members present Alex Williams (AW), Elliot Smith (ES), and Natasha Green (NG):
(ES) brought to attention that the film was missing part of the drug testing, so we discussed that we needed to film this seen ASAP. We arranged to film the drug testing scene on Friday the 3rd of the December since we all could attend this date. For the drug testing footage we suggested that we needed x3 extras (Stephanie Stevens, Ben Sutton and Glenn Dourish) to play as scientists. Again, we noticed that we needed to correctly fit the footage with the Song. This was to be done after this meeting.

Group meeting
Meeting 23rd November: Members present Alex Williams (AW), Elliot Smith (ES), and Natasha Green (NG):
Editing the recent band footage was the main focus on today’s meeting, we filmed a lot of band footage and we realised that we had very little time to complete the rest of the editing and filming. So we discussed on doing some editing during our free time, which would mean we would be using our free time more effective, which resulted in getting the whole process done a whole lot quicker.

Group meeting
Meeting 16th November: Members present Alex Williams (AW), Elliot Smith (ES), and Natasha Green (NG):
Today we discussed about the very important band footage that needed to be filmed. (Sam Taylor) was only available on Thursday 19th November so all of the band footage had to be done and completed this coming Thursday. We decided that the band footage was going to take place at Natasha's house in the empty garage. We decided this would be a brilliant location as the garage has plenty of space and the dark background would fit perfectly within our film

Main storyline
To start with we needed to sit down and condense all of our ideas in to a workable story one that is appropriate for the band and related to the song and one that is achievable not only in the time allocated to recording but one that would fit in to a four minute song.
After a long discussion this is what our group came up with
• The Storyline starts with production of MK Ultra drug – so we will use short clips showing small segments of the production
• Then shown being put into a syringe
• Test of drug on a patient being monitored by the businessmen – we will use the businessman as a key linkage between the two parts of the story
• Businessmen leave facility gets in car and drives off
• Child in middle of road with balloon with a small sign saying “you cannot control us” – we will use the child as a reason for the man to stop the car the child will also be dressed in the same clothing as the mob so it will be wearing a white mask.
• Car stops
• Man gets out to see the child
• See sign picks sign up and reads it
• Mob attack – throughout the video we will be flashing up small clips of the mob to show that they have been organising this attack, it will also link to why the band are wearing masks
• Man is caught in middle of mob
• Flair goes off
• Man is seen being taken away
• The camera flashes between scenes of the mob with the flare.
• Finishes with the Mob.

Group meeting
Meeting 9th November: Members present Alex Williams (AW), Elliot Smith (ES), and Natasha Green (NG)
Today we realised that we had hardly any footage apart from the Riot scene and old lab scenes. We realised that we only had a few weeks to get it done, so we really needed to get a move on. The main focus on today’s lesson was editing the Riot scene and Lab scene. We discussed what we needed to do in the upcoming weeks. This was more band footage, drug testing scene and business man scene.

Meeting 2nd November: Members present Alex Williams (AW), Elliot Smith (ES), and Natasha Green (NG):
We were disappointed due to the fact that we weren’t able to complete the editing of the riot scene. We all thought that we would have completed the editing in the previous lesson. Of course, we didn’t think that the editing would have taken such a long time. The main priority of today’s lesson was to complete all of the riot footage.

Health and Safety
During the production of our video a lot of care will have to be taken with the safety procedures undertaken within certain for the duration of filming.
Such as:
• Using a flare correctly
• Creating and maintaining a safe bonfire
• Choosing a safe area for a bonfire
• Driving the car carefully and responsibly
• Care needs to be taken in the chemistry labs
We also got parental permission for the young girl (Rachel Smith) this is because she is under the age of 13 and the need for parental permission is essential, since she is part of our media production.
When using the flare we made sure that Alex was going to use it, since he is a responsible adult. After the flare has been used we shall dispense it in a bucket of cold water, to prevent any injuries.
When creating the bonfire we shall check the bonfire to make sure that there isn’t any aerosol or flammable items that may cause an explosion once lit, which can lead to injuries. We will also have buckets of water near the bonfire, just in case it goes out of our hands.
We are going to light the bonfire at the bottom of the garden away from the house and trees, this is so that they don’t get set on fire.
Since we are having a moving vehicle in our film, we have chosen a responsible adult to drive the car (Elliot Smith). We will only be reaching small speeds of 10 mph, to provide maximum safety,
Finally care needs to be taken in the chemistry labs. This is because we are mixing chemicals and we need to make sure that we are mixing the correct chemicals in a safe environment.
