A Chat with Dennis...

So less then 10 people turned up to our lecture today with Denis entitled 'Reviewing the footage' like a lot of people me and Rosie had not yet managed to film anything as we were on the waiting list for a video recorder. But all in all today was not wasted and Im really glad we went in..

We managed to have a tutorial with Dennis about our concerns about shooting, We were feeling positive today as we have just found a model and set a date for filming, so we felt very together and really on track..The only concern we had was staging our end scene, the drowning scene.

Obviously at this time of year, we really couldn't be putting our model in freezing cold water, take after take. Kim Howells in a previous lecture told us to look into using Rosie's pool..This seemed like a good idea but the more we thought about it, the more it seemed un obtainable. Denis told us to look into using the 'power of suggestion'...Suggesting she was drowning as opposed to showing it. This got us thinking maybe we could have our model walking into the water and quickly changing to the models dress floating on the water. We thought this could be really powerful.

Were going to Mote park on Monday to test it out and see what it looks like on film.. Im guessing one of us will need to get in the water...We should prepare for this...

TTFN
