Images

We were able to take some photos during the filming session. We took a number of different images to have a good variety to pick from and put onto our review.

These first two images are similar to each other. The band of girls are in there positions waiting to be interviewed. The expressions give across their diva attitude towards fame. Sam (Helen Martin) is the only one looking into the camera in both images, suggesting that they are action shots taken straight from filming, typical of a real review. The lighting in these pictures are decent, compared to some of the others below. We would definitely consider using one of them in the review.



The image below shows the arrogant band member, with Sam in the background. The lighting in this image isn't perfect however looks like its taken straight from filming, the look we were going for. I like how Brian (Robin Kerrison) is at the front of the shot, with Sam in the background watching him being interviewed. The camera is looking up at Brian suggesting how big he believes his ego is and giving him a look of self importance.





The next two images give off different attitudes of the girls band. The first shows all three looking into the camera forming a direct mode of address. Sam in the centre is smiling broadly in to the lens with the other two band members at either side smiling too. I like the friendly expression however it doesn't really fit the way they are portrayed in the movie. We ideally wanted the band to come across as unfriendly so this isn't one we will pick to place in the review. The image below is definitely more fitting. Sam is looking over to the other band with her two fingers up. Her expression is unimpressed and the other two look the same. We particularly like this image as it gives off the 'cold' vibe and represents the girl band.





This is the final image that we could put on our review. It shows Shaun (Mike Robinson) and Chris (Daniel Smith) in their interview. Both characters are looking into the camera lens. They both look quite relaxed, with Shaun leaning fully back in his chair. We like this image, however it is quite grainy and low quality. For this reason I don't think we'll be using it.


We also took the image of an acoustic guitar leaning against a door for our film poster. We were only able to take one image of this as the camera died however we are happy with the one we got. The light is perfect and there is just the right amount of wall to the right of the door. As we showed a black background in our developed drafts we edited the red of the carpet out of the image. To do this we used the programme Firework, which we used last year at AS level. We knew what the majority of tools were for so were able to locate the lasso to cut around the guitar base and door.
