Production research summary (Advert):

The budget for the production of my advertisement will be £1,500. In which the money will be used to hire: cameras, tripods, actors, the location to film on, the computers to edit with along with the software itself. 

I found out that an, 'Nikon D700' camera would be the most efficient camera to used; this is because this type of camera captures footage professionally and clearly, this will make the overall footage look appealing and interesting for the viewer. I've also chosen this type of camera, because of the weekly hire price is £75. I will be shooting this advert for around three weeks, the total amount would be  £225.

Also I researched a range of tripods  to use at a cheap hiring price. I've chosen to use a tripod called the 'Vinten Pro5'. The reason for this is due to the hire price for this tripod for week would cost £65, I given how i would be filming for three weeks; the total price comes down to £195, in order to hire for the said three weeks.

I decide to use a 'MacBook Pro laptop' for the editing software of, 'Final cut Pro. This will cost £99 per week. The end price £297 for using the software for three weeks for editing. In short I've picked this laptop in order develop and piece together my finished advert.

I found out that hiring actors for the advert will be expensive, this is because hiring one actor will cost £75 per hour. That's why i have decided to use a small amount of actors; ranging around four to five characters. Costing: £375 in total.

Hiring a location, such a classroom or a drama studio will cost £22 per week, Given how i'll be shooting for three weeks. Hiring three different classrooms will bring me to a total of £198 (one room costing £66).

The final cost to hire all the equipment, actors and locations to use for my advertisement will be £1,290. With my total budget being £1,500 leaving me with £210 left over for further equipment or re-shoots. As for the where abouts of where to get the equipment, i had done my research through sites such as media dog hire. This is where i found the prices i have mentioned throughout text, so this would be a good place to get the stuff i will need and use for the production of the video.
