Initial Filming Progress- Ruby and Abi

Location-

This is the location Abi and I have chosen to film at today. It is close to my house in Weybridge, meaning we could transport equipment easily and also, as it was an extremely cold day, we could go back home to warm up if necessary. We shot most of the lip syncing shots, as well as some photographs for the digipak. We also shot some footage in my room too. This was all done efficiently as we went straight from college as we both have the same timetables, and because we agreed to make myself the actor within the video too, it made this day of filming a lot less hassle free.

                          

Behind The Scenes-

These images show the behind the scenes process, and the second image showing a break from filming for an attempt to warm up to avoid any health hazards such as a risk of hypothermia especially as the outfit I was wearing exposed a lot of flesh.

Behind The Scenes (Makeup)-

This is an example of what my makeup looked like for the result of domestic violence. We used

fake blood to create cuts and shades of purple, green and brown eyes-shadows to create bruises, as well as smudged mascara to portray the despair and the fact the character has been crying to make it look more realistic. I did my own makeup on myself as this was my allocated role, I also did completely different makeup for the scenes in the forest that represented the fairy-tale we are imposing.
