Filming Session:
For this filming session we had to re-do a couple of shots from our first filming session, where Dr Gray tells Kayla that she doesn't actually have Narcolepsy, due to the fact that my voice was too quiet, so this time we brought a microphone with us. There was a slight problem as Saidah brought a different coloured headband to the one she brought last time we filmed this scene. However, once we thought about it more, we realised that you can't actually see the headband in most of the shots, from the first filming session, that we were intending to use as we had used mainly close-ups of our bodies to keep the focus on the tests Dr. Gray was carrying out. We did, however, have to re-do one other shot that we hadn't planned to re-do - Kayla's reaction to the news - as that was the only time we see the headband she was wearing. We think these shots went well and they didn't take us long at all because we knew exactly what we had to do.
We then moved on to another scene where Kayla falls asleep whilst getting ready for a party. We decided to use Bareen's bedroom as she had a mirror the perfect size and in the perfect position to film. Filming this shot went quickly, with no problems, and we are happy with the footage we got.
The picture on the left shows the two types of lipstick we had to choose from. We decided to go for the pink one because it was brighter and so would be easier to see.
The picture on the right is of Saidah wiping off the lipstick after haven taken the first take of the shot.
The picture on the left shows me filming Saidah sleeping on the floor. We decided to get a shot of this, even though we hadn't planned to, just incase it would look better with a close-up of Kayla sleeping.
The picture on the right, again shows me filming Saidah. This is the second take of the shot, we decided that the first shot had looked slightly dark so we decided to use Bareen's lamp to produce some light - you can see her holding it up.
We had one last shot to film, where Kayla falls asleep whilst typing an essay, so we used the desk in Bareen's bedroom for this shot - the picture on the left shows Bareen moving things so that we can place the camera there to film. We directed Saidah to fall forwards onto her hand which would be holding down the 'Z' button. Even though this seemed slightly cheesy, we decided to put it in to make the scene a little bit funnier.
