In this particular 506 scene was a close up of Louisa reading her book, my role in this was sitting in the background as if I was taking notes.
From here Chelsey, Demi and Chloe walk in and Demi and Chloe talk about the Chelsey's handbag, this particular scene was a Wide Shot.
Doing it once over Chelsey, Demi and Chloe came in a lot closer towards Louisa. As Chelsey say her line James then walks in and and stops her in her tracks.
After this the camera angle was changed this time it was on " Wide Shot" this is when they are quiet close but not that close, from here we then shot it again only this time we shot it from over the shoulder so that we could get Louisa and the girls in shot muh clearer.
As this happened we then made the shot focus on James walking in, and got it from his point of view and how he entered the scene. Afterwards we then shot it from Louisa and James and we got it from where Chelsey pushed off the books, we then face the cameras to them whilst they both have dialogue to say to each other.

How I developed my Zombie Character
To get into my Zombie character i tried to make it realistically as possible and I went into the Mind-set of a Zombie I took on-board Bertolt Brect's theory of " Bertolt Brecht is all about realism within a character where Constin Stanivslavsky's theory is all about how the character would act. Doing the Zombie gestures I took both of these famous theories on aboard and really went for the character which was the Zombie, yet it still had a natural flow to it. As we are currently doing " Developing Voice for the Actor!" I thought about how a Zombie would talk, so to develop my inner-zombie by turning in my left leg and walking on it side -ways as if I had been injured. Developing the voice for my Zombie character I really used my diaphram to get the correct noise and the pitch was quiet high also. I as got the hang of it I then pushed
from my Larynx " Voice Box!" ( which means Mouth!" and developed this particular gesture to my mouth. I decide to make my zombie character a little unique so I began to lead by my chest" I also made my mouth drope, my reason for doing this is I wanted my Zombie Character to be believed and be realistic and I think I have proved it. The Camera shot that day was straight in the face" so in other words " In-front Angle".

Media Shoe Shop Scene .. . .
In this particular scene that I participated in my role was to be a customer coming in to have a look around and scout for shoes, during this particular shot the camera was positioned as an " Over the Shoulder" this means getting the shot over the shoulder of someone and shooting te characters in scene at the time.
From the first shot we filmed I came in just as Kinsey handed hannah the shoe box. Getting it from a different angle my position in this was to come in off the right hand side and look at the green drop that was situated behind Louisa and Kinsey's characters. I walk in have a look around and walk back out again.
Sticking to the same routine I really made my entrances much bigger and precise each time I came into shot.
As we shot the second take this time the table was facing towards the green drop and the camera was on " P.O.V" which means Point Of View. In Media terms Point Of View means when the camera is focused on just one simple object/person.
Doing this particular scene I came in from the left and instead of looking at the Green drop I look at the Green Petition. My reason for this is so that it looks like I am focusing on " a Shoe Rack" rather than just come in and go out again.

College Entrance !!! " Before Prom!!
In today's Media Shoot we filmed just outside College entrance. The scene is where Louisa and Kinsey go to enter the College and they meet Will mid-way.
My part was to go walk in a few minutes before them as if we were heading to Prom, the first time we did this we followed Victoria and Hannah into the building.But then we decided to change it by hanging back a few seconds and going by " Beth's signal" to enter, this was soo it looked like we were arriving a few minutes after.
For this scene in today's media shoot I participated by hanging it a little instead of coming straight after Hannah and Victoria we decided to come from the road side, as we waited a few seconds the camera geared us " Long Angle" for I and Sam to get right into shot.

Prom Scene Media the Entries
As we did another scene this time we focused on the entries of Kinsey, Will and Louisa entering Prom. I participated in this scene by taking the lead and walking down the stairs with Nicole, as we got to the bottom the camera still positioned on the main characters.
At first the first one was a " Run-through" so the next shoot was for real.
Participating in the stair scene we then came down the stairs and headed back into the room where the camera focused on it's main characters.

Prom Media Shoot!!!
In today's Media " Prom " Scene we shot it at the Arc, within this scene the main focus was on Kinsey, Will, Louisa and James. As the Prom scene got underway we then began filming and making sure we got all the loose ends in. Within the first scene we shot it was all about James and Louisa and how they enter. As we did this filming a few takes more we really got the hang of it.
At first when Louisa and James came in we had to just dance about and chat amongst ourselves, but then when the second take came we then had to chat but also manouver to the side just so the main characters were in shot.
I participated by being in the shot as an " Extra" I really found my niche" as we did another shot the focus was on Will and Kinsey and we done a few shots of Will and Kinsey entering the prom where the camera was on " Long Angle" this means the camera elongates itself to get the characters in.
From here the shot then focuses on the two " Main" characters James and Louisa.
As they go into the middle they both speak to each other, as this is happening the rest of us are still dancing.
After a few more shots of this we then moved onto the next shoot. .
Which is when we enter.
Doing the shot the first time was all about focusing on timing and getting down the stairs in time after they shouted " Action!" for this particular shot we done this a few times before we got it right.
I participated in another scene in the " Arc" surroundings for the prom only this time Louisa's character gets drenched with drink.
As Chelsey appears she approaches Louisa with a drink and spills it on her. This took a few takes to get it right. As the third take was shot this time Louisa's character runs off in floods of tears, whilst we stand there in oblivoius to what is goig on around us.
This particular shot took face-on angle to zoom i on us.
From here we went onto shoot another film n the |" Arc" stairs.
