Filming the make-up scene

Today we shot the make-up scene which is a key part of our film. We filmed this at Steph's house as we needed to keep the film as realistic as possible. We kept to the original sotryboard idea of having an over the shoulder shot of Steph putting the make-up on in the mirror. During the filming we experimented with the different make-up styles that the character will be trying to create. When considering this we based our ideas on stereotypes and exaggerated this. During the foundation scene we used orange foundation to create a comic effect for our film. We used bright pink blusher and lip stick to conform to these stereotypes. During the scene we wanted to convey the characters inexperience with make-up which hopefully adds the humor in the film opening so we highlighted her mistakes which will also be brought to the audience's attenition in the voiceover. We also used some close-ups and mid shots during this scene. Lauren filmed all of the footage for this scene. We also filmed the doorstep conversation scene between Ryan and Steph today. We did this as we wanted Steph's make-up to be the same in this shots and in the previous shots and this would be hard to recreate. This was important as we wanted to keep the continuity of our film as seemless as possible.
