CONSTRUCTION: FILMING

Yesterday, Demi, Kate and I went to Kingston High Street to do a quick extra film scene for our film trailer. We purposefully chose to film just outside "Links London" since it is an expensive jewellery shop and we wanted the audience to clearly see Sydney looking into the window and then deciding to go inside the shop.

Prior to filming, Kate and I brought in two small expensive shopping bags, including Pandora. We did this to further portray Sydney as a character who has an unusual amount of money for her age, who is spending her money on expensive jewellery. This would immediately make the audience question where she got this money from and why she is spending excessive amount of money on this jewellery. These questions that the audience will ask themselves will make the audience wanting to find out what happens in the film. Therefore, the trailer sticks to the codes and conventions of film trailers since it creates mysteriousness, tension and leaves the audience wanting more.

As we were driving back to school, I decided to quickly set up the camera and record the road whilst Demi was driving, I thought that it would be a nice quick scene to include in our film trailer, which would provide more overall scenes in our trailer and also more locations - making it more multi locational.

Below are some pictures I took of my group and I editing the new footage we had recorded.
