Working with the Director

I noticed I've mentioned a bit more about the stripping documentary but that's because there is a lot more pre production involved in this subject matter as Young and Pissed is more of a local documentary so pre production isn't as complex as finding strippers. There has been a lot of effort put into the script and shot lists and  all the paperwork is up to date for when the filming begins for the stripper doc so it's all go when the green light is there.

However, the young and pissed documentary has gone through a couple of changes in its storyline and is still in need of a catchy title. Today I received a script, which I'm glad about because now I can storyboard the rest of the shots needed but would have preferred receiving this after the pitch. At the moment the shots needed at the interviews are discussed with the director whilst setting up, and the script is basic so I've had to rely on the director on the day. I've started to build a visual storyboard of what I would like to shoot. But I will have to use my creative side and what we have discussed in conversations during shoots to start building up what I think the director wants. I think this documentary needs to have a longer script soon and ideas of shots to help me out and get the best out of this concept.
