After the issues with my first actress over the Christmas break I was able to find a replacement very quickly and we shot over a 2 week period with editing going on throughout January and February.
Most of the shots I took at least 3 or 4 takes for each shot as Amy (studying drama at university) had such a range of facial expressions and techniques that by taking more takes of each shot I was left with a wide variety of shots to choose from for the final shot.
The other two cast members (Jason and Ella) both also have acting experience both acting in the National Youth Theatre productions over the summer period. Ella's shot of her at the table not moving was not a post production effect, it was in fact her as a great actress staying absolutely still. And throughout I think its very tough to find a falter in her performance. Although not huge parts both actors did a great job and both approved the shot's I chose to put in the final project.
