Filming Day....Review

Hello

I believe our filming went well in Lisbon. We managed to have plenty of time to shoot as we started our day nice and early. We started off by going to the monument to Christ which is suppose to represent the Christ of Redeemer in Brazil. We thought it would be good to film here because Brazil is another place known for its fashion although its not the capital cities of fashion as London, Milan, Paris and New york. Also because we was traveling we thought why not get some nice scenery for our film and plus it our storyline is a about a girl dreaming so anything can happen in the dream.
After we filmed what we needed in that location, we headed off to the beach and filmed our first scenes of our film.

Greek style

We have chosen to go for the Greek look. The reason for this is because we think that it works well with our mood(ethereal). The way we are going to show this is through hair and make up on the model. We're going to have flowers on the models hair and have it plaited into two starting from the top. We want the hair to flow with the wind in of our locations (The Beach and Christ Church scene).

Make up

The make up we want on the model is very simply yet probably have the bold eye make up and less on the lips. Also we want that glossy glow look. The images above are ideas and research of what we might want.

Model, Dress, Make up, Hair....

Our model above for our film (Picture 1 and 2). The reason why we chose Solange is because she has this unique look that we like and plus she has long brown/black hair and she's tall.
The dress that we chose originally was (Third image above) but we didn't have enough money to purchase the dress so we worked with something we had already (fourth image above).
The dress we have is light pink as well but it is long and does still work for our ethereal mood for our film.I just think it doesn't really reflect Jonathan Saunder's work fully. Although it does still reflect on his colour palette from some of his collections.

What going on...

Hello,

I have quite a lot to say, because I haven't had a chance to hop on and write away what has going on with my project at the moment. Going back to Week 6(presentation week).
Our presentation was on the Thursday 11th March 2010 and it didn't go to well but that's just how I felt.

During our presentation we had a lot of criticism over the littlest things that can be solved fairly quick (Models dress). The criticism I felt was more personal rather than professional simply because there was outcomes from me and my partner that we produced in that presentation which other students didn't have and which they didn't get penalized for, yet we we're told they are worried about us. Although we had test shoots of our location(Plan B if Plan A didn't work out), I did understand the fact the we was behind from a couple of other students but not far off for the way we got criticized.

I have undertaken either all personal or professional criticism and have worked ten times as hard to prove to myself that whether it was feedback in bad or good way that I have hopefully managed to show the results in my project.

I was fairly upset but I guess this is the industry I want to get into and I'm not going to let anyone put my hard work down.

Friday- 12th Flying to Portugal Lisbon to go fashion week and to do my filming.Why not kill two birds with one stone. Also this was done during our own time, NOT DURING UNIVERSITY TIMETABLE. My tickets are shown above.
