Filming Day Two

For our second day of filming we filmed a rotating camera shot of the main protagonist blowing out candles on a birthday cake. The camera begins in front of the character then rotates around her in a semi circle. When we reached the back of the chair the character was sitting on, we redressed the scene. We then continued tracking the character, but in the new scene she is younger, and blowing out candles that display the number 15, rather than 19 in the first scene.

PICTURES

We began the scene with Molly portraying a 19 year old. We therefore dressed her in more mature clothing and added contour, eye shadow and dark lipstick to make her look older. Then in the second shot we used much lighter makeup, such as highlighter and blush, in order to create a younger look, as in this scene she was portraying a 15 year old. We also dressed her in more loose fitting clothing as we believed that this would depict a younger character.

PICTURE

We used a birthday cake as a prop in this scene. For the second scene we decorated the cake in order to make it look like a different day. We also used numbered birthday candles to suggests the age of the character in each scene.

Filming Day One: Fireworks

For our first filming day, we shot a scene in which our main protagonist watches a firework display. We shot the fireworks both in an out of focus as we felt that the lights looked interesting when they were distorted by the camera.

We also shot Molly watching the fireworks. For this filming day did little prep in terms of makeup and costuming, as Molly's face is lit only by the firework display.

On the 5th of November we plan to film a scene in which our main character watches a firework display. For this we will be attending Bloxham firework display with our leading actress to film.
