Progress Report - Planning

- We are planning to record another set of filming of Roger singing on Wednesday 19th October. We thought we had filmed enough, but it turned it at least half of it we ended up discarding. We have written a list of other parts of the song that we want to re-record him singing. We are also planning to film some more on Wednesday too, focusing on the magical side of Alice in Wonderland. We want to film the drug idea, but don't want to make it look like we are encouraging drugs, so we want to hide the idea and use me (Alice) lining up powder and as I go to sniff it, I blow it instead, turning out to be glitter, so it shines all over the camera. We plan to do this in slow motion so you really get to see the sparkly effect. We also plan to film some shots of me kissing the camera. For both of these shot ideas, considering we don't want to get stuff on the camera, we plan to use clear cling film over the lense (We have practiced this to check it doesn't go blurry).

- Today we filmed 'Alice', naturally waking as herself, which we plan to use at the very start of our sequel. We are going to cut and speed up, using Final Cut Express, to follow the opening of the song - as if the lyrics represent her daily routine and just simply waking up. Again connecting to the lyrics themselves 'it was all to stay awake for the longest', and how we have analysed the lyrics. This medium shot of 'Alice' showed her dream style life and how she wakes up and it is still the same and that she cannot escape this life. This allowed us to have a strong focus on her as well as showing the setting, so the audience can get a instant connection between when I am in bed playing 'Alice' and 'Alice' in her 'Wonderland'.
