Storytelling unit - development of story

After my tutorial with Simon, i was advised to keep my story quite simple and not introduce other locations and characters. which uncomplicates the plot and leaves more to be told through the characters and their stories. I only included a group of small boys, who are mean't to be the problem and creates a climax in my story, their role was to use racism to test the friendship of the two little boys, i left one bit with the mum, showing signs of discrimination but quite contextual which adds her hidden agenda of racism without being to obvious.

I've organised my characters, knowing a little black boy was quite handy to this film, he has asked a little white friend to play Johnny who i believe would be good actors, I've chosen a location, its a park by my house, i know it quite well and i'm hoping that the weather and everything is good on the day of filming. As i have never organised a filming production its quite important that i get it all right and i plan all the details.

I've made a list of shots i need to include and how long roughly i need them to go on for, almost like a storyboard but in a list sort, it will help me as a check list during filming.
