Filming Session 2

On Friday we began to film the main scene of our thriller. Our co-actor Drilon and main actress Shelby spent around half an hour having makeup and fake blood applied by me.
For Drilon's make up we used a lot of fake blood because he was the victim being murdered, a fake wound and Shelby's eye makeup to create a realistic looking  black eye, to make it seem like he had been beaten up. We then used some handcuffs to attach him to a bar that was on the wall, and tied him to a chair with some rope. 
As the policewoman, Shelby's make up was subtle; we used dark eye make up and bloody fingerprints on her face to make it look like she had wiped her face after beating Drilon up. I also applied fake blood onto Shelbys shirt and grabbed her arms and parts of her shirt to make it look like the previous murder victims had grabbed at her frantically.

Once we started filming, the time passed quickly as this time Shelby was more professional and there were less outbursts of laughter and we took less time to shoot each scene. There were less disagreements about where the camera should go, how to move it, where the characters should be positioned and therefore a more productive filming session.
