A Day Recording

During my holiday in the South of France my sister, Cerys, and I took a day off of holiday activities to complete some recording. I decided to pick out a costume for Cerys' character. This was a pair of red shorts and a white vest top. My reasoning behind this that the red connotes danger, that her character will be in. However, the white shows the characters purity and innocence.

My Step mum then helped me create an effect of a black eye on my little sister using black, red and purple coloured eye-shadows. 

Cerys and I cycled around the woodland area surrounding our holiday home. We wanted to find somewhere where our risk assessment could be put into place, somewhere avoiding stinging nettles. We then went through a series of ideas that i had in my head to look as if she was being chased or attacked with the camera acting as the attacker. Doing this with a 7 year old proved to be slightly hard and took a lot longer than i expected. This meant that it was starting to get dark and the lighting and setting would look really different, so I decided to stop and we would come back the next day. To do this i had to take photos of Cerys so we could match what she looked like for the next day so the recording would match using continuity editing.
