Time:

• A constraint that could happen in terms of time is that I need to make sure that my video is not too long or go overboard; I also need to make sure that my video is on topic.

• Another constraint that could happen in terms of time is the time to produce my video, I need to plan my time and use them wisely.

Cost:

• A constraint that could happen in terms of cost is the cost of equipments. If I break any borrowed equipments, I need to pay therefore, I need to be careful when handling with equipments.

• Another constraints that could happen in terms of cost is since I have a low budget, I need to consider what I can do with a low budget and what can I do realistic in my video. However, travel cost would not be a problem.

Personnel:

• A constraint that could happen in terms of personnel is the permission I need if I need to film, I need to ask SPCA and have their permission if I want to film them.

• Another constraint that could happen in terms of personnel is the choice of actors in my video. It is not a major problem because I will be using pets most of the time in the production will use a minimal number of actors in my video.

Resource:

• A constraint that could happen in terms of resources is that dogs could bite me or not listen to me. So I would want to reward them if I manage to get them filmed.

• Another constraint that could happen in terms of resource is that I need to be careful when handling equipments I plan to use for my video.

 

Legal and ethical consideration:

When filming, I have to consider weather filming something or my action is legal and ethical or not and weather I’m breaking the law or not. The following things I need to consider:

 

Privacy:

Privacy is when something or someone is not to be disturb by the public’s attention.

When making my video, I have to understand which information regarding SPCA can I use and which information can’t I use so that I can respect SPCA’s privacy. I also have to keep a low profile when filming and make sure that I don’t draw too much attention.

 

Libel law:

Libel law is a law where people must not make anything that will be shown to public that will offend someone or something unless they have permission to.

I must make sure that in my video, It will not offend anybody and offend pets I’m using for my video. I will have to be careful of what to include in my video and what not to include. I also need to make sure that my video does not harm the reputation of SPCA.

 

Race discrimination law:

Race discrimination law is a law where everyone must obey, they must not discriminate others based on gender, race, religion, language or any other ethnicity. This protects everyone from being assaulted.

Dogs can be distinguished by breed and gender. When filming (and even off filming), there’s no particular dogs to choose and must not abuse dogs. I also need to prevent other dogs from raping each other unless they are desexed.

 

Data protection:

Data protection is an ordinance where it is possible to find out the identity someone within the data where it is accessible by everyone. It is unethical to hack into someones information because the owner has does not have your permission to use that information.

In my video, I should make sure that when I am filming, everyone can access the information I use by referencing them. I should also make sure that I include some information about SPCA because it is my chosen charity.

 

Freedom of information:

Freedom of information is an act where people can use whatever information available in the internet and accessible by everyone.

In my video, I will use whatever information I can access regarding SPCA and will not use any information illegally found in my video.

 

Codes of practice:

Codes of practice is where you ensure that the production stage runs smoothly. You also need to make sure that you have a plan for everything and that you have booked any resource you plan to use. This is where the pre-production stage comes in.

When filming, I need to know at all times what I am doing and what contingency plan to do I have. I also need to make sure that my pre-production plans are going accordingly and is up to standard.

 

Copyright:

Copyright is where legal right where if there’s a copyright sign © on someone’s work, it is okay to copy that person's work. Otherwise, there could be legal complications.

I will have to follow the copyright law. If I’m going to use information I get from SPCA, I need to either find out if the information is copyright or not or reference my information so that the audience knows where I get my information from. I will also need to consider weather others can copy my work, If I don’t mind other borrowing my work I can put the copyright sign in my video.

 

Health and safety issues:

In regards to health and safety issue, I will have to look out for pets safety as well as people in my video’s safety. If my actors or pets I’m going to use is not in a healthy condition to film, I will need to find a replacement to fill in that role. When filming, at all times I will need to be aware of my and others surroundings. If I neglect my actors and pets health and safety, I will have to be responsible for the damage. To make sure prevent any accident happening, I will have to fill in a risk assessment form and a contingency plan so that I will know what will happen whenever a hazard happens.
