Our task was to film a very short piece which showed someone entering a room and having any form of conversation with someone already in the room. Ours was intended to be comedic, in the light that it would show an intense situation which seemed very serious, to then make the audience realise that in actual fact, it was merely about a Cindy doll who had been beheaded.
I personally filmed this along with Nicole. We chose to do over the shoulder shots, to increase the claustrophobia of the scene. And the camera followed Lizzie across the room which was intended feel as if we were sitting in the room or intruding in some way. The shot at the beginning where Lizzie walked towards the camera was meant to make our audience feel slightly intimidated by her as Megan should because she was the one who was tied up with the scarf.
The set we used was an art room in our school as it seemed the most interesting, though obviously a girls room would have been better and made it more realistic.
Fortunately, we were set this task on a non-uniform day in out school so we weren't all in our suits pretending to be children whose dolls had been abused by our sisters. I think that Lizzie's outfit was good as it was interesting and purple is often a sign of authority.
