Character Profiles-FIXATION

Eileens' Character Profile:
 More Information:
 This character is very disturbed who has a fetish for young boys, she has recently been watching the character James and in the film her planning with come to head when James has a birthday party. Ellien herself is very confined, she has little friends and does not speak to her family and works part time as an office assistant and in her spare time watches James closely. The character is very simplistic and does not care about her appearance to the outside world however later on during the film we see her more complex side and how her past has affected her. However at the moment her whole being is consumed by James.


James' Character Profile:
 
After watching James's character profile we felt that it was too childish for 16 year old, we also noticed errors in what he was saying. For example he said he was 15 and studding A levels- this is not possible in the UK, due to these continuity errors we re shot. Above is the new character profile and below is the original.

Shooting Schedule-FIXATION

Below I have created a shoot schedule to help achieve each shot, I also felt it necessary to include a props/equipment column, because, as learnt from previous experience, things are always forgotten when shooting so by having this column it will help the team remember what is needed in each individual shot. The shot description is also an aid to help remember what the shots include, due to the location and people involved we would prefer not to re-shoot due to a missed shot. I feel that by having this shot list handy during filming it will help the group know the direction and order of shots. I have also abbreviated some words to make it easier to understand for example: M/L is medium long, O/S is over the shoulder shot and EL/S is extreme long shot.
