Filming a Pilot

What is a pilot? Why use one?
A pilot is a test shoot, so it sees if our location is correct, it makes us see what angles we need to get and is basically a really rough copy of our end product.

What is in-camera editing?
In-camera editing is a technique where instead of editing the shots in a film into sequence after shooting, you instead shoot the sequences in the correct order. This results in the "editing" part already being complete

How useful is this as a planning exercise?
This is very useful in a planning excersise because it helps us to see what shots may work and what won't. It also helps test if the location is right and if we need to change any aspects of our opening sequence.


For our pilot we went to the corridor that we were going to use and had a look at the basement:
