In order to make our actor look as isolated as possible, we thought it would be very effective to gather a shot of Jazz in the whole school assembly. Our main idea was to have a camera at the front of the sports hall facing everybody sat down. We would then focus on Jazz sat lonely, on her own in the sports hall as everybody was leaving. Myself and Emma felt this would be very effective to include in our production because it symbolises Jazz's isolation and loneliness as everybody is leaving the hall. We planned to fast forward or use the shot as a time lapse. However, when we filmed the shot we felt that it was not as successful as anticipated. This is because students and teachers spoke to Jazz when she was sat on her own whilst we were filming. This resulted in Jazz appearing less isolated. Sadly, we did not get another opportunity to re-shoot the scene due to our time scale of filming. If we had another opportunity to re shoot this scene, we would ensure that everybody is aware that we are filming and that we would like nobody to communicate with Jazz, our main actor.
Below are some of the clips we gathered:
In order to overcome our problem, we decided to film Jazz in a year 12 and 13 assembly. This is because we believe it will have a similar affect as there are a lot of people which would emphasise Jazz's loneliness.
