Pictures from 03.03.13 filming

Today I filmed Meg and the journal scene. I also filmed the scene where it flashes back to the wedding outdoors.

JOURNAL SCENE

Used the hearts pattern from my Mum's valentine's card.

Cut out some hearts from red paper

Found red and pink pens to connote danger, innocence but most of all love and the dangers of femininity

I manipulated an image on iPhoto to create an effect that Jacko was in a previous relationship with Sally. As if the homewrecking had taken place.

here is the image.

I added an effect to this image to enhance it to make it clearer

I bought a sketch pad from THE WORKS for £2.99 to decorate into the journal

I printed out photos I had manipulated and taken on previous dates to include in the journal

When making the front cover I downloaded a font from www.dafont.com to find a newspaperesque/mystery/criminal feel to my journal. I decided the appropriate front was the sex pistols font as it had all the connotations e.g. rebellion that I wanted. I used the colour red to connote danger and passion and how the two when conflicted together can cause horrific results (this book) I added a black stroke outline to allow the font to be clearer.

How the book looked previously

I purposely used Sellotape to create a hand made effect. I stuck on a few hearts from my parents valentines cards in different sizes.

I cut out photos

Glued them in with PVA glue

Afterwards  stuck on the three hearts I cut out with double sided sellotape

Example of what was written. I found images of Meg with boys or images that would look like meg from a distance to create the effect that it was all her doing.  I added large numbers starting from 28 to show she had been in numerous relationships.  I also added commentary to help my audience understand the plot of my music video and the narrative.

On some pages I left it blank to do filming or write the lyrics of the song.

Filming. My desk area was too dark therefore I had to find a lamp that produced a soft light

I brought this light from the spare room as the other lights had a too harsh glow

OUTDOOR SCENE

For this scene I back combed Megs hair and went out in the late afternoon to show the passage of time. Unfortunately some boys on scooters were shouting and staring at us whilst we were trying to film which put us behind a bit!
