PROPOSAL 2018

Project Action Plan and Timetable:

The table below shows my project action plan and timetable. It is very similar to the one the
teachers showed us as a suggestion, but I have altered it slightly to suit my needs. The week
of the 9th April, I am going on a College trip to New York, so I will be unable to film with the
main character of my film. However, I am going to try and film bits of B Roll so that the week
is not used to avoid my FMP.
