1. Recce
A Recce is a pre-filming or pre-photography visit to a location. The purpose of the visit is to
decide upon the suitability of the location for shooting. You will need to comment upon the
access to necessary facilities, assessment of potential lighting and or any potential issues
with sound.
You should devise and complete a table similar to the one shown, ensuring that you include
appropriate detail.
