Filming notes

I used this picture as a template as to what I wanted my eyes to look like for the film. It was a simple smokey-eye, which was the original plan for my make-up. I didn't want to go too extravagant because the character's personality is not extra-vert.

Girls who wear make up and like to keep up appearances would find my character suitable to their social setting for example I think my character is the most girly out of everyone therefore certain social groups (like girly- girls) will find that they have something in common with my character. We used this as a tool to create a response in the audience and it helps create a dependency for the survival of the different characters. the dependency helps reel the audience in and its what's going to make them sit at the edge of their seats and hope that their favourite character comes through.




This was one of the accessories I used for filming, I used this gleaming bracelet to add pops of colour which was part of my character's personality.
The jewellery contributes to the characters personal style and this helps represent the interest of certain audience members, in the film the others are fairly dressed down however Eva is more extravagant, it was important we made this difference clear as it ensured that although the girls were all friends and shared similarities in interests we all had different traits and personalities. It is these different traits and personalities that allure the audience. These small touches add to the overall enhancement of the portrayal of the character and it enable the audience to grasp the character in a more detailed way.

  1. Yes but why?

    Could link this into the ways in which certain social groups are represented in the media. You have made certain choices for different reasons. It's important to analyse why and evaluate whether it has helped to represent those social groups correctly for your target audience.
