Preparing to shoot!

As I have created my risk assessment, I have decided to arrange all acts, props and set(s) as soon as possible. I have decided to use my own home to film in (verisimilitude). The room I used had not been used in a while and became a type of storage space. I had to tidy the room quite a bit, and move larger pieces of furniture into the hall, out of sight from the camera, framed images on the wall and books that didn't bring the minimal theme I had in mind for my miss en scene. I left items that had been stored in the room such as the war time paintings and the old clock because I felt they were interesting, and would make the audience question my character: Why does she have these types of images?, Why does quite a modern, young woman have an old style clock?

I ended up using two actresses (at first, I only used one). The black and white shots are of myself whereas my coloured character, who we see more of the Mollie Greaney.
