Backstage Stuff

Here is a snapshot photo of the band playing in the attic location. Our 4 actors are playing and Paul is filming in the corner.
There is also a short video of us performing as the band.







Mise-en-scene:
The location is lit by spotlights, and christmas fairy lights behind the band. This give a dark and emo like effect to the room.
We added a balck cloth behind the band to darken the room, adding some colour to the cream walls.
My brother's posters of footballers were taken down and replaced with a dart board and a mini basket ball hoop- suggesting that it is a lads area, they would no doubt mess around up there.
to add to the idea of teenagers having a good time we added empty booze bottles and shot the band drinking cans of beer.

Costume:
We had the band dressed in jeans, dark clothes and if possible, skinny jeans. their hair was either straightened or gelled up. Hair spray was coated on their hair and eyeliner was added to give the true look of an emo.
One of our actors arrived in a football strip, this was to show that they do more than just play in a band and this particular guy has more than one interest.
