1. Development Diary – FMP Film – Week Seven
ProductionReflectionPartFour
Last weekends, I was filming to refresh scenes because last time some scenes look messy.
Two actors dropped out last minutes make my script confused. Now, I asked four same
actors and they accepted. Also, I asked one more actor because I need more male actor and
he accepted. I was nervous because I sometimes hate when actors might be dropping out
last minute. I was relieved because five actors definitely come. I gave them twice practice
because one of actors who didn’t acting before and I taught him a bit acting. When they all
ready for begin filming and they look more comfortable than last time. I think they were
know what is going the storyline because they had been acting my film before. I was glad
because they were finally follow exactly same as their lines. I was still stress with them
because they sometimes distracted by messing about. I keep telling them off and they had
listen to me because I don’t want waste my time before the daylight getting dark. my actors
gave me their idea when one of actors who might struggling to remember their lines. One of
actor is acting and other of actors who hold the script to the actor. Or one of actors is acting
and other actors sign follow their lines to remind them. I am happy with their idea because
that is useful and helpful. But I had a little bit not good idea because I want the actors keep
face straight to other actors who is talking. When one person help to remind their line and
the actor keep look up when they struck their lines. That’s why I want them read and learn it
before practice. I notice that I had two missing scenes, one scene where one person grab
bottle of wine and other scene where shot at two people dead. I was too busy to
concentrate to their facial expressions and body languages because that is important for the
Deaf audience who will watch my film.
Last time, one actor had two characters Richard and Ben. Now I had two male actors which
means each character make look better to different person. I was struggling to asked some
male actors and they refused because men don’t like or too shy to be filming. I was finally
found other male actor and I had two male actors in my film. I had three female actors who
love to be filming. I decided two girls swapped their characters Jenny and Holly because I
didn’t notice they wasn’t suit that characters and they swapped to look more suit their
characters. One part scene my favourite is Richard and Jenny flirting each other. They look
much better to more opened mind and I don’t like they begin stiff each other can make look
not professional acting. That why I swap two girls characters and they look much better.
When I finished the filming and I am hopefully to edit make my film look best than my old
film.
