preparation for re-shooting

Due to our feedback , we have decided to re-shoot the 'getting ready' scene so it is more understandable.
Today we have address the faults within this scene; coming to a conclusion that it needs to reflect Cindy's obsession with the modeling world before she gets ready to go to a modeling after party. This decision, in changing the layout of the opening scene was made due to the lack of development that the story line presents within our rough-cuts and storyboards. Our decision lead us to reassess what we wanted our audience to feel, and what we wanted to capture within the first two minute opening scene.

Consequently from our feedback, we decided it to be more fitting to our story line if Cindy were to emphasis the stress and pressure that the Modeling Industry encompasses; as a result of this we need to focus more on Cindy getting ready as apposed to  her rushing to go to a party; this will create tension and suspense for the audience; this will also reflect the image-conscious fashion industry, and the obsession that goes with it.

Ideally within the first two minutes we will present obsession, and desperation to achieve perfection by Cindy's flaunted admiration of Twiggy ( a popular model of the 1960's). This will be portrayed by Cindy constantly comparing herself to the photo of twiggy that will be placed fittingly on the mirror. By doing this it shall then primarily elucidate Cindy to be a obsessive character from that point onward; we will reinforce the Modeling Industry's corrupt views and influence towards teenagers further, by Cindy delving into the world of illegal substances just before she leaves the scene.

In these prominent shots, it will illuminate and enlighten the audience that this character will go to any length to reach her dream, it will also show the naivety and influential reality that peer groups have on individuals.

The multiple shots will be abrupt, demonstrating Cindy's hunger and strive to be perfect and to fit in to social norms.

Within this two minute opening scene we aspire to recreate the younger generation of the 1960's and how they can easily be manipulated towards social taboo's; thus inferring the highly dangerous consequences that come alongside.

Alongside the changed in story line, come hand in hand the change in location. Formally we used a transformed shed to stage the party, but for a more inventive and intellectual story line we have now come to a conclusion that a decorated room would play the part accordingly. This is because it reflects on the Cindy's personal environment that will reflect on her personality; thus creating a connection with the audience as they will immediately be subjected to Cindy's lifestyle and evidently be subjected to her characteristic traits even before the character is introduced.
