Diary - Filming and Set Construction

This week and last, we have been filming the YouTube clip section of our opening sequence. For this, we went into the basement and constructed a set for the religious fanatic character's home, a sort of underground dingy squat. We placed a mattress on the floor and draped a dirty dust sheet over the window,  which served to cover the unsuitable window and make the room darker and allow for the extreme contrast lighting we used. I also chose my costume, which consists of a dark green flannel shirt, a large fur lined coat and dirty, paint covered trousers. This was designed to show the character's scruffy almost vagrant-like nature. I played the role of the religious fanatic, Joseph, which involved a lot of shouting in a dark room.
