Film Opening Coursework. Filming One of the "Morning After" Scenes.

For our second day of filming, Dan filmed our actor George Lamb in the first of our 'Morning After' scenes. To create the fake blood which we were putting on George's hands, Dan mixed cornflour with red food colouring and water so it would create the right texture, colour and look of blood. All George had to do was place his hands in the bowl and it created the perfect 'blood-stained hands' look.
                    
During filming, Dan put neon face-paint back onto George's face so that it would definitely look like the morning after and we made sure George was wearing the same colour t-shirt as he was wearing during the party. This was to make sure all of our shots were accurate when it came to editing. However, we did allow him to wear a jacket as it was absolutely freezing that day. 


For the filming, we put George on a bench as his 'wake up' spot. This is because it is completely different to the two other 'wake up' shots we have planned and it is different to the 'death spot'. Dan was able to play around with lots of different camera angles and overall the shots came out great! George was a good actor and co-operated well which is what we wanted, even though he is not a professional actor.
