Behind the scenes- Filming of Lola

We have a deadline to complete a rough copy of our short film by Friday 30th January. We have filmed all the scenes we needed to so far and this week we will focus on editing it all. Throughout the filming, we have taken varies pictures/videos to show what it has been like making the film and how our teamwork has enabled us to work together and successfully complete all tasks at hand.

Makeup

 

 To achieve a 'unwell' look for the character Lola, Selen applied red, brown and grey eye shadow under my eyes to make them look drained and hollow. She also applied brown blusher to my cheekbones in order to exaggerate my facial shape and by enhancing the cheekbones it implied that Lola is fragile.

Using the Camera

We have all helped to film, taking turns using the camera and consoling with each other after each shot in order to ensure we were all happy with what we had filmed. We felt confident enough to use the bigger A2 cameras last year when filing our AS video therefore we felt a lot more confident using them again this year allowing us to experiment more.

 

Rehearsing the shots

Due to me and Demi being in most of the shots, we didn't have to
opportunity to see how each shot would look when filming, therefore we took it in turns to act out in each frame so we all had an idea of how the shot would look when filming it for real.
