On the 27th of January, I am planning on doing my first bits of filming. I am planning doing all the scene which aren't using the dance studio which is the majority of my short film. I am going to give myself 3h to do all the different shots in the house.
Location:
For the location, I want to portray a sense of verisimilitude to the audience and by doing this I will be using my house as my actresses home. My character is still young and lives at home and I therefore wanted to use my house to present this. My room is going to be a big feature in my short film and I think it is very fitting and suitable for my protagonists room as it is girly and has lots of dance features such as pointe shoes on the walls. I also have a short scene when my character goes outside and into the car to drive to ballet. Here again I will be using my front drive and my mum will drive the car to again show that she is still quite dependent of her family.
Costume:
I want my character to wear some sleep clothes such as a baggy top when she wakes up. She will then get ready for dance and put on a black leotard with ballet tights and a top and leggings over. She is going to be presented as a conventional trendy teenager with converses and a stylish dance bag. I will also get Emily to wear another set of pyjamas for another scene which comes later. This is to show time has passed.
Props:
Props are important in this short film as I want present that my character is a perfectionist. For example the scene where she puts on her makeup and takes out her folded clothes. Another prop we used was the phone for the alarm which again presents a sense of versilimtude as it is filmed in present day where phones are a big feature of everyone's daily routine. Finally, I used a plate of food to show a flash back of her pushing the food away, suggesting her struggles with her relationship with food.
