Plans for Shooting

Hair and Makeup

Main Female Character- her hair will be down and very simple with nothing in her hair her make up will be very natural and hardly noticeable to give her a sense of innocence that is need. This will be done at home as the make up will need to be done the actress so she is comfortable with the make up she is wearing.


Main Male Character- his hair will be styled to look like the following picture

this will be done at home by the actor but then I will provide gel at the filming location so that we can keep it looking the same and so it doesn't become to static and stuck to his face, the gel will be used to keep the volume in the hair. No make up will be used on his face however I will use foundation on his hand to blend the tattoo sleeve into his hand to make it look like the tattoo's are real.

Extras-  

Female- The female extras will have both simple hair styles, either down or in a ponytail. Their make up will not be over the top as it would not fit the story line as they are at a college. 

Male- The male extras will have hair that has been styled either at home or on set, depending on whether or not their have gel at home, it will be styles in a similar way to the male leads.

Costumes

Main Female Character-  A simple look consisting of a plaid shirt with a black top underneath with blue  jeans and a pair of Timberlands, she will wear a simple plain pair of earrings and a simple chain necklace. This outfit will come from the actresses wardrobe.


Main Male Character - He will wear a simple grunge look consisting of a plain black t-shirt to show the tattoo sleeve and grey jeans and have converse shoes on. This outfit will come from the actors wardrobe apart from the tattoo sleeve which will be provided by me.

Extras- Extras will wear simple clothing such as jeans and t-shirt to give the setting a feel of being in a college, these costumes will be provided by the extras.

Lighting

The lighting at my location is good apart from at the bottom of the stairs as there is no lights there only a fire exit door which is all windows so while filming here I will need to take lights with me to allow me to get the right kind of light that I need within the scene. While filming outside the area is not very dark and the lighting is good however if I film there too late in the day, after sunset, then the lighting will be wrong and I will have to go back and film it again on a different day as it will too hard to make the area look like it is during the day, so I need to make sure that I am able to film the outside piece before it gets to dark

Props

The main character will also be hold a folder that I will bring from home. In my opening there is a scene where the main male character is selling drugs so a small plastic packet will be provided and it will look like it is filled with drugs however it will just be talcum powder.
