Week beginning 2nd Jan

Millie did some filming of her younger sister who appears in our music video (Maya) as we had previously relieved feedback on our 2nd draft.

One of the shots Millie re-filmed wasthe shot of Maya reading, we had to change the school book Maya was previously reading to a fashion magazine so it enhances our theme of ‘beauty’. We already knew this shot was difficult to film as you have to start zoomed in on Mayas eye and then zoom out so the audience can see her reading. The camera is often hard to keep focused and Millie had t o make sure her zoom wasn’t too slow or too fast.

We also knew we had to reshoot the shot of Maya walking in high heels as this wasn’t working as the difference between Millie and Maya wasn’t obvious enough. We had previously decided that Maya should wear larger heels so the audience can clearly see that they are too big for her, Millie also decided to put her in a dress which is too big for her and for her to walk in socks with teddy’s on as this will symbolise how young she is. Instead of using the door as we knew this didn’t work Millie decided, so Millie reshot Maya walking up to the wardrobe door and open it, then when the door shuts Millie is there and walks out to show the difference.

We had spoken to Mrs about different aspects which would show her age, one of these was Maya applying lipstick which Millie decided to shoot. She used bright pink lipstick. We haven’t yet edited any of these shots so when we do we will see if there is space to put in this shot as well.
