Treatment
BRIMFUL OF ASHA
BY THE THREE AMIGOS…
SAM GOULDSBOROUGH, HANNAH-JO WAINE, JORDAN WILMOTT
Treatment –Documentary Extract/Short Film/Music Video
We as s group are now going to discuss our finalised treatment, which we have now gathered through a number of techniques, including; Audience feedback, presentations, group discussions and research.
Firstly, we aim to produce a high quality music video which sticks to the codes and conventions of the indie genre, which successfully promotes Cornershop’s single ‘Brimful of Asha’ and has the purpose to entertain.
The target audience we aim to reach would be 16-25 year olds of both male and female gender, ideally, these people would have an interest in indie music/video techniques. We stereotypically connote (Roland Barthes) young people to enjoy fun, upbeat and at times, unconventional songs/videos, hence why we plan to include the plot and editorial techniques we have discussed as a group. In order to specifically reach this target audience successfully, we decided that our music video would be shown on music channel MTV2. The reason for this decision is, that unlike certain music channels, i.e. Kerrang, which is heavily rock based, MTV focuses on a wide variation of popular music renowned for being extremely popular with young people, indie being one particular genre
A plot summary of our basic beginning middle and end can be seen on our blogs, however, after looking at our audience feedback sheets, which we gained after completing a group presentation, along with simply talking to other class members and staff members, our planning has since developed onto a new plot, this is because our previous idea could possibly have been deemed too ambitious, this was due to many things, technicalities and time scale being two large factors. A basic overview of this new, improved and simplified plot would be;
Jordan idolises a famous, 'out of reach,' female movie star (Hannah), his best friend and lead singer Sam finds this excruciating to watch. Jordan descends into a dream-like state, where he is able to follow the iconic star around in a PA role, eventually, Jordan is brought back to reality with a bang, as Sam appears in the room with the real life star hand in hand. The song Brimful of Asha is playing throughout, apart from a short conversation between Sam and Jordan at the start of the song, which has no music playing at all. We will use the re-winding technique we have discussed in our planning, to follow the codes and convention of the song, this is when the song itself sounds as though it is being mixed/re-wound on a 45, at this point, the diegesis will re-wind to reverse Jordan's internal thoughts, and this is when present reality will become evident. Another effect we plan to use in our piece, is the visual illusion of one character (Sam) pushing frames off the screen with his hand, to make room for his own chorus performance scenes, this effect will be applied in post production.
In order to perform and achieve a successful and visually pleasing video, which goes above and beyond its brief of promoting Cornershops song Brimful of Asha, we (The three amigos) will have to select certain props, locations and costumes. Some of these are as follows;
Locations
At first, as shown in our previous planning, we selected a short list of a few possible locations, some of which were; Meadowhall shopping centre, different methods of transport ect, however, after researching these places, we hit a few problems. First of all, we discussed filming a bus driving away, however, similar to meadowhall, we discovered that every single person pictured in shot, would have to have given us written permission, or alternatively, be someone we know, considering that we planned to have a large croud scene of shoppers in meadowhall, this would have been almost an impossible task to achieve on such a large scale. Therefore, we abandoned the idea and had a group conference, which we recorded on audio, and came up with our new locations, which are; The Lecture Theatre in College, the Drama Studio in College and finally, one of our houses and other areas in and around college. We plan to photograph these new, finalised locations and upload the evidence onto our blog.
Props
Similar to the above, because our story changed, so did our props and costumes, we found that, now we have a clear plot, the props and costumes were much easier to decide on second time around. The main props we need however, are;
An ipod
A poster featuring an image of Hannah
A large camera
A trophy/Award
Flowers
A projector/Interactive white board
Costumes
We have also altered our costume change to stick with the new codes and conventions of our plot. Each Character will have their own designated outfit(s), some of which are as follows
Sam
Sam's character, is represented as being a typical 'cool indie guy,' therefore, we purposely came up with ideas for his costume which reflect this image, we based his image around typical 'indie' rockers, who are renowned for their 'quirky' dress sense, for example, bands like the Kings of Leon. We decided that his main costume would be along the theme of, a checked shirt, jeans and some grey pumps.
Jordan
For Jordan, we wanted his Character to come across as being quite geeky, due to the idea of him being oddly besotted with Hannah's Character, who he in theory, has never even met, we based his character's costume choice around stereotypically 'Geeky' Characters we see on Television, a strong influence for us was Channel 4's The Big Bang Theory, main elements of the Costume are going to be, dull colored trousers, glasses, a cardigan, a brief case and some non-descript plain shoes.
Hannah
For Hannah, because she plays a famous film star, we wanted to represent her in a very glamorous, iconic 'out of reach' way, We researched many iconic film stars, from Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn, however, to achieve a more modern representation, we looked at the film Battlestar Gallactica, and the strong Female character of Caprica Six, for the main advert of the film, she was denoted in a red, skin tight cat suit, which since, has become iconic for the film and its sci-fi genre. Although this representation is not relevant to our genre, we can take something from this, and ensure that Hannah's character becomes an iconic image within our video and its indie genre. Also, the colour red has connotations of passion and sexual dominance. We could also take inspiration from this idea, and use colours to give certain representations of our characters. A main costume idea is, some classy, iconic dresses, full, over the top make-up, big hair, possibly a fur coat, sunglasses and high heels.
Once all our characters become the band in the chorus, we will all change our costumes, apart from Sam who will look like a generic indie rocker all the way through our video. Hannah and Jordan will then be denoted in similar indie costumes to Sam, i.e. checked shirts and skinny jeans.

Once all our characters become the band in the chorus, we will all change our costumes, apart from Sam who will look like a generic indie rocker all the way through our video. Hannah and Jordan will then be denoted in similar indie costumes to Sam, i.e. checked shirts and skinny jeans.
Technical issues
Throughout our video, we will attempt to achieve a number of techniaues, including, using a bright backdrop for the chorus, pushing one frame off screen to make way for another, lighting and colour effects. Again all of these effects will be applied in the post production stage of our work.
Recce
After selecting our chosen locations, we went on to go to them and investigate them for any health and safety issues, because all of our locations (apart from filming at our houses) are in College, most of the health and safety issues we may have faced have already been addressed, for instance, if we were filming in busy public areas i.e. town centres, there would be a risks of incidents like, assault from the public and road accidents. However, we still need to take care with things like; Filming beside roads/car parks around college, filming things like overhead high angle shots which can be made a lot safer by ensuring that another group member holds on to the middle of the filming group member, or their belt. Things we will restrain from doing are; filming late at night, going out alone, and going out without a mobile phone, or telling someone where we're going and what time we will be back.
Style notes
To add certain effects to our piece, to ensure it resembles a generic indie music video, we will attempt to use a number of different techniques, for example;
We are going to use mise en scene to help create certain stereotypical representations of indie artists, we will do this by using facial expressions as, indie bands are often connoted to us as being very stern and serious, and also by using costume. (see above)
We also intend to use interesting camera angles to reflect indie codes and conventions, for example, a crowd shot of the band where the lead singer (Sam) is positioned central, and nearer to the camera to denote importance, sticking to the rule of thirds.
As a group, we also decided that the beginning of our video would have no music, just ambient sound and shot reverse shot structures of dialect between Sam and Jordan's characters.
To add interesting framing techniques and transitions, we also decided that, if technically possible, we would use the effects of; One character pushing frames off screen to reveal the present frame, flash transitions to add a snapping camera effect in the photography scenes, and finally, hazy, misty transitions which we stereotypically associate with dream scenes.
Storyboard
Although our storyboard is currently in progress, we appreciate that certain elements of it may change once filming begins, due to many things, like lack of resources, technical difficulties, or even just discovering as a group, that certain things aren't going to look as good as we anticipated, or be possible.
Planning
We as a group have already been working hard on our planning in order to reach a stage where we can film, this involved a number of things, from group discussions, mood boards, scribbling rough ideas and taking verbal advice from fellow students and staff, because of this, we intend to develop this planning further and experiment with numerous computer programmes/editing techniques to reach a point where we are fully confident with our storyboard and know exactly how to carry out our effects and camera angles.
Audience feedback
In response to our treatment, we verbally asked members of the class to comment on how thorough they believed our blog to be. We took notes on their response and wrote them up;
Student 1: "The treatment you've created is really good, you can tell you have put in a lot of time and seem to have included most things, good use of theory and I like your ideas."
Student 2: "I think how you've used links and pictures throughout your blog, really makes it look good. Really clear and ambitious ideas."
Student 3: "Really good treatment, it's very long would be my only criticism, and maybe you could think in more depth about the costumes."
Student 4: "I think you should add more pictures next time you complete a task like this, that bit looks really effective and breaks up the big chunks of text, I think thats really cool how you have considered basing your characters on certain stereotypes."
Student 5: "Could be a lot shorter but you can tell it took you ages, good ideas, if you manage to pull off all the editing techniques this could be really effective, well done you three."
UPLOAD PIE CHART
Feedback response
We took this response into consideration and have made some changes in addition to our original ideas, in order to meet audience requirements, for instance, for the pre-production stage of this we have decided to take some pictures of costumes to give ourselves a much clearer idea of what our characters will look like on screen. The audience response showed that there wasn't much reaction about changing our ideas in any way, therefore we feel that they can just develop further as filming progresses, as a pose to changing anything drastic.
Audience Feedback Sheet
We as a group came up with a brief powerpoint presentation, which we attempted to make entertaining and engaging for our fellow class mates to watch, in this powerpoint, we pin pointed our basic ideas at that time and the process of how we reached those ideas.
After doing our presentation of ideas, we passed round an audience feedback sheet in order to get some ideas from others to help with our final decisions for our video.

We came up with the idea to send an e-mail to the publishing company of the song "Brimful Of Asha." The purpose of this e-mail will be to recieve the permission of the publishers of the original song, in the hope of creating our own.
The E-mail content is as follows:
Hi, my name's Sam, I, along with 3 other students represent Thomas Rotherham College,UK. We're all studying media studies, and for our current project, we have to create a music video. We've chosen your song- Brimful Of Asha. I hope that you'll be ok with us using your song; we'll also contact you as much as possible with our ideas etc, so you can make an input too.
Thanks very much,
Sam.
Looking forward to hearing from you
We made the e-mail quite colloquial and chatty, in order to approach the director in an informal, yet respectful way, in order to achieve a polite, equal tenor.
However, after analysing the e'mail in more depth, we decided that it may possibly be deemed as too informal, and may not provoke any response from the reader, therefore, we decided to alter the e-mail vastly, our final e-mail, which we as a group wrote together, is as follows;
ukpublishing@umusic.com
Dear Universal Music Publishing,
I am a student currently studying Media A Level at Thomas Rotherham College in Rotherham. I am producing a music video as part of my Coursework, I and the rest of my group have selected the 'Cornershop' song 'Brimful Of Asha,' and would really like your permission to use this as the basis for our video.
We as a group feel that it is our duty to ensure that at this stage, you understand the video is solely for educational purposes and will not, at any time be broadcase or published.
On another note, we want to make you fully aware that we will clearly acknowledge the songwriting and publishing credits and highlight your role in the production.
If you have any queries please feel free to contact my tutor James Finlayson, who is copied in on this email.

Codes and Conventions
Noah and The Whale 5 Years Time.
I believe this music video will follow the same codes and conventions as ours will when we make our music video. For example I think we will use very similar styles, because the songs are both old hippy styled, we will use the same camera styles as it shows a amateur camera shot which shows a lack of professional ness which I think will help make the video more genre related. The clothes that they wear are very basic, for example they are wearing blank coloured blazers and black trousers, with a light yellow shirt, I think this style of dress is stereotypical of an old indie band, which is also apparent for the song we are doing Brimful of Asha. The people in the video are very serious but the actions that they are doing are very sarcastic, which I think we will be able to do in our video well. Whenever they are outside in the video it is always sunny and brightly lit. I think this is stereotypical of this music genre having lots of bright colours, which we will have to follow during making our video. The video is has lots of editing, for example there is lots of names that come up in a light yellow bold font which I think we will do as it is old fashioned, because we wont be putting any new high-Tec editing as that would ruin all the verisimilitude of the video. I also think the kind of costumes that they use will be good, for example we are going to be in a car and be wearing some kind of fancy dress during our music video.

Final Decision
We have decided to make a music video for brimful of asha.
After the feed back from all the people we asked about which to do we talked about which one to do, and thought that the ideas we had were best suited for this song. Also we thought it would be more fun to make, and we have got a good idea on what to do at each part.

]
We chose to look at 4 different music videos...
Day N Night
this video is both performance and narrative, for example there is a lot of the song where he is behind the counter of the shop and people are coming in, but there is alot of him singing with girls in the background, which also shows the genre of the video
Bonkers
This song is alot both, but there is more performance that narrative, i think this shows more affect towards the listener. he is on a floating blue box in the scene and you can tell its moving showing so there isnt much narative at all.
When the sun Goes Down
This is all narative, the music video is like a short film without and sound just a song in the background, it is about a man and a woman which relates to the lyrics.
Brimful Of Asha
we couldn't find the music video for this song, which we though could be an advantage as we wouldn't be copying the origional video.

Charmer (kings Of Leon) Music Video.
Charmer (kings Of Leon) Music Video.
I am going to analyse the music video Charmer, make by the Kings of Leon.
At the beginning of the music video, it is very dark and there is a bit of light coming from underneath a curtain, as the first beat kicks in, the curtains go back and light comes out as if it is with the music. There are lots of reflections of the guitars, I think this is to help show the meaning of the song, as it is about a charmer, which the band seem to be scared of. Also in the music video you can see where the light is coming from which normally wouldn’t happen in films or documentaries, the lights change when the tempo of the song changes, this creates different moods for the viewers. For example when the coarse starts it goes very light as the music gets allot heavier.
During the video there isn’t much editing, at the beginning of the video, a notice comes up telling the viewer, who it is, what song it is and what album its off. This helps the viewer so they know more information about whom they are watching. It also comes back on at the end showing who has been watched. During the course when the lead singer screams, the screen looks as if it is been suck, showing the audience his scream is strong or loud. The camera angles are mainly close-ups, at the beginning there is a good establishing shot, showing that the band are in a theatre. During the music video there are only cuts between each shot, the shots are very short lasting around 3 seconds, but when the course starts they jump from shot to shot a lot quicker making a more intense scene. Most of the shot are took still because they switch so often, but there is a few which pan across the front of all the band, I think this is also to make the scene look more intense. There are lots of close-ups of the guitars, which are in most rock/indie band videos, whereas in other genres you might not even see the instruments.
The Mise-en-scene in the video is very good, its been made to look like a real performance as they are on the stage, but at the beginning you can see that there in no-one in the audience, making a ironic view on the video. I think this is good because it makes the song stand out more, also in the song the course says “she’s always looking at me oh no” which is ironic as there in nobody n the audience that could be looking at him. The cloths and props are very good as you can tell straight away that they are on a stage and they are wearing what a stereotypical rock/indie band would wear. The main colour used in the video are red and black, this helps set the mood for the song. The body language of the people in the band are very serious, there isn’t any smiling or laughing, this would show the seriousness of the song not the band as the mood would change from song to song. During the video the lead singer looks into the camera, this make the viewer feel more involved as it looks like they are been watched. This is called breaking the barrier, where the video becomes less real as they are looking at a camera which wouldn’t be there.
The sound in the music video in just the song, there isn’t any added parts for example an introduction or anyone talking in it, which I think, is normal in this bands genre. At the beginning of the video it start silent and the bet slowly builds up which is a well worked introduction, rather that starting straight into the song.
Answer In The Future? A Short Documentary
Answer in the future? A Short Documentary.
This documentary is about a small vehicle, which is been introduced in America to reduce fuel consumption.
During the documentary, there is a narrator talking for most of the time, (non diegetic narration), which is telling the main details and asking the questions for the designer to answer. At the beginning of the documentary when the new vehicle is introduced, there is a very quick tempo tune, setting a happy mood. Throughout there is the designer answering question from the narrator, which creates a documentary style as it isn’t an actual conversation, but it still makes sense. The main designer is talking in a louder voice than the narrator; I think this is so he stands out more, so people watching would take more notice of the information he is saying. His voice is very demanding and he is making very positive comments towards the new vehicle. He also uses lots of statistic, which will stick in the viewers head, which is more likely to interests the viewer.
During the documentary the is a lot of editing, for example there is lots of text added to show more information, at the beginning in the bottom right corner of the screen there is the title of the documentary, (answer in the future) in a bright red colour to make you aware of what your watching. Also at the end they have put together credits to show who made it, the names and titles are shown by scrolling up from the bottom of the screen to the top. Also when people are introduced in a interview there names come up showing who they are and what they have to do with the business, helping people watching understand more, and know more about the vehicle.
There is lots of different camera angles, they are mainly medium close ups for the interviews which take place which is very common in documentary’s. The shots switch a lot throughout it, going for the vehicle to the man talking about the vehicle. The shots are normally just cuts to each different shot but there is also a few dissolves, which make it a lot smoother, for example at the beginning when the producer is trying to show the vehicle they were dissolves, I think because the smoother changes between each shot makes the car look better, rather than cutting to each shot. There is a lot of zooming, within this documentary, in the first part, the camera zooms into the prices of the petrol, I think to try to exaggerate the prices making the car look better. The camera rarely has any movement; I think this is to get a more professional look so people concentrate more on what is said rather than the images. There is also a camera held on the vehicle as it is driving, which shows you a closer and better view of the vehicle.
The mise-en-scene with in the documentary is good because it is real life, there isn’t anything fake or anything needed to make it real, the designer is wearing stylish cloths but nothing flashy, he also looks and talks like a working class man which would connect to the audience more. The vehicle is represented is a good way and cars and vans are shown in a very negative light, as they are the reason for the new transport not been safe and also as they are un-environmentally friendly.
During the documentary there isn’t any lighting needed as they aren’t trying to set a certain mood for the audience to feel, the are always outside in the natural light which is common for documentary, however the weather is very bright which would show a happier mood than if it was raining.

Lovefield a Short Film
Lovefield A Short Film.
This film is set in a modern day, American farmers field (the diegesis). The scene is set out at the beginning to look like a farmer is killing a person in the cornfields, there is a crow on a fence squawking making the scene look intense, the farmer goes back to his car and get a blanket. As he goes to put it over this person he picks up a baby and there is a pregnant woman laid in the field.
At the beginning of the film the ambient sound track is really quiet music, it’s a violin and the tempo is extremely slow, it’s a very high pitched but quite sound making a scary or intense scene. There is a crow on a sign making some noise, which makes the scene look more terrifying. The sign is also blowing in a calm wind making a loud squeaking sound, which also makes a suspicious noise. The camera is panning over a cornfield and getting closer to a gap where you can tell someone is laid, and there is a phone bleeping this is denotation (the phone bleeping) and the connotation is that someone has tried to phone for help and has been stopped by someone or something, this is Roland Barthes theory. The sound of the phone is getting louder and louder which shows you are getting closer to main scene. As the scene goes on a woman starts crying and screaming, the camera slowly pans onto the woman’s lower leg, by looking at her foot and movement you can tell she is struggling, and there is a loud violin sound, and she stops moving and the scene goes quiet. A man stands up in the field and a quick tempo piece of music comes on, as he runs to his car, I think it is attempting to illustrate that he’s done something wrong. Suddenly there is a change of mood. As he reaches down with a blanket and picks up a baby, a very light and cheerful music track comes on and they are both smiling and the man says, “it’s a boy” which eases the intensity of the mood, making it more cheerful. A car arrives in the distance with sirens on which helps you know that it is an ambulance. Also when the man says it a boy he is signifying that there is a child, and then the baby is brought onto the shot, which is the signified, this is Ferdinand de Saussures theory.
At the beginning the camera is slowly tracking and arcing through the cornfield, the angles make it look like you the person watching is trying to look for something. It slowly swings down through the corn and shows a mobile phone, the focus on the phone is really clear showing what you are supposed to be looking at, the focus is changed to some money, then changed again to a bloody cloth and once more to a woman’s foot. I think they have make the camera move slowly to make a more ironic scene, after the woman stops moving (trying to show she has died) a knife is stabbed into the floor, and with the mood changing the shots become a lot shorter and there is lots more movement and quicker movement, which I think makes the scene look more intense. The camera tilts up from the mans knees to his shoulders which shows a very suspicious character, the focus is on the back of his head and jumps to a crow in the back ground, I think this is the show what he is looking at.
There are lots of good shots, for example there is a medium close up, of him when he is looking at the crow, a good reaction shot as it shows him looking down and then suddenly looking up past the camera and then showing the crow. Finally, there is an establishing shot of the field, a ambulance, a tractor and the road, and many close ups throughout the film. There is one of the knife that he stabs into the floor and one of the mobile phone ringing.
The lighting in the film is constant throughout, as there is only one scene and it is all outdoors, making it easier to light. I think they would have used all 3 (key, fill and back) lighting processes during all the film, because they are in the middle of a field so there wouldn’t be any shadows or dark areas in the scene, if there was this would ruin the verisimilitude.
The mise-en-scene within the film was very good. All the characters’ costumes helped portray real life, you could see on the mans shoulder that there was a small tattoo of a love heart, which at first I thought showed irony, as I was lead to believe he was the killer, whereas in the end he was helping a woman have a baby which shows he isn’t “bad or evil”. The whole film looked very real and there wasn’t any signs of it being fake, making the verisimilitude of the film brilliant. This was done by following the rules of continuity, temporal and spatial coherence.

Short Film
Short Film
What It Would Be About?
This If I made a short film it would be about, someone that went to college and how there life revolved about there friends and not there work, which shows in the exams results, I would start them off as a confident person wearing track suits and acting as if they were bigger than everyone else in the college, as they got the result they would completely switch and become a kind of loner, which helps him become a better person and succeed in his future exams.
Advantages?
I wouldn't have to get any special equipment to make the scenes look realistic as it would all be at the college.
The actors would have the cloths needed for the scenes so they wouldn't need to get any specific cloths.
Disadvantages?
People would be walking around college all the time which could cause problems in some of the shots we take.
some scenes would be hard when we need lots of people in a scene, for example when hes walking through the dinning hall.
Music Video Idea
Music Video
What It Would Be About?
If i did a music video i would have to get permeation of a band to cover one of there songs which would be very hard, but i would cover a song which was in the genre indie, i have specific idea on what they would be wearing and how they would act in the video, for example they would be wearing checkered shirt and tight jeans and would be acting in a very calm nature.
Advantages?
I would enjoy making the music video.
I think it would be easier that planning a short film as you already have all the script ready.
Disadvantages?
It would be very hard to get permeation of a band to cover there song.
it would be hard for the actors to make it look like they are playing the guitar or the drums, in tune with the song or beat.
Documentary Idea
Documentary
What It Would Be About?
If I did a documentary I would go to a football match and analysis the game, I would mainly look at one player, I would record all the information about the match and video record the match so I would show highlights on the video, I would also try to get an interview from one of the players and ask him questions about the season and what the team has to offer. During the interview I would show clips of the player during the match making a tackle of scoring a goal.
Advantages?
This would be a very interesting project from my point of view making me try harder as I would enjoy the tasks.
This would be very different to what everyone else would be doing making it more interesting.
Disadvantages?
If the match I recorded wasn't good then my project wouldn't look good so I would have to go to another match.
It would be very hard to get an interview with a player.
It would be hard to get all the people in my group to want to do this project.
It would be very hard to get good footage of the match.

Deleted Scene (Evaluation)
We decided not to use this shot because of a few different problems which were...
- Person A who was dropping the book made it look too obvious that the book was dropped.
- Also during the scene you could hear people laffing in the background.
- We also though that Person A and B was too far away from the camera which made the shot longer as it was hard t o see them clearly.
During the scenes we did find out a few good interesting ideas for example...
- We found out that we wanted both people closer.
- We needed to put the camera on a higher angle.
- We decided to change person A as they couldn't stop laffing through the scene.

My Small Video Evaluation
My Small Video Evaluation.
What it is.
We made a small video called ‘the book’, in the video there are two people, person A and person B. Person A had to walk with some books and drop one without noticing, Person B would then see the book and give it back to them.
Good Points
I think that the video was good with lots of good points, for example…
• We made good decisions on where to video each shot
• We used the right shots which made the video easier to understand.
• We used all the camera’s quality’s to make the film the best we could.
• When editing we used a lot of care in making it well and the timing of the cuts were very good.
• When cutting from one shot to the other it looked professional and worked well for the video.
Bad Points
• We didn’t plan the video very well as we didn’t have enough time to make it well.
• At the end of our first lesson we didn’t finish filming and didn’t come in the same cloths the next day making the video look bad. Also an actor had there hair cut making the verisimilitude of the film bad.
• We decided to use different actors at the start but they kept laughing during the shoots making the film look very bad so we decided to change actors.
• On the second day of shooting the weather was different making the scene darker and there was someone lawn mowing making a loud noise in the background.
Shots.
We used lots of different shots when making the short film, most of which we didn’t use but we made sure we had got all that we needed in-case we found that we were missing something.
