Ruby Lips Film shoot Day 1

As apart of our class Video Production 2, our assignment was to shoot a student film that was written by one of our classmates. Each person was assigned a position for the production of the filming process and mine was costuming/make-up. Our film "Ruby Lips" is about a girl, Clementine, who was murdered, and detectives Parks and Owens, have to figure out who her murderer is. During our first day of filming my goal was to make sure that everyone was properly dressed for their characters. I had to go around and make sure that everyone's hair, and clothes looked appropriate for shooting. Make-up was provided for those that didn't have any, and for those that didn't have the time to do their make-up my services were provided for the application process. Out of all the film shoots that we had to do, the first one was the longest! We shot Clementine's body discovery at our very own campus pool near the recreation center. We used a very high tech camera called "The Red". This particular camera is used to film Hollywood movie productions, and its very EXPENSIVE! Our DP's were from SCAD, and were very helpful during the shooting process.
When it came to providing food for the cast, as well as crew, our professor Mrs. Adrienne Boner spent hundreds of dollars on food, and for that she was truly a blessing. She made sure that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes, along with our two wonderful producers Barbara Sue and Jessica Armstrong. Even though tensions ran high throughout this busy time-consuming process, everyone was a huge helping hand, and throughout it all we finished strong with our student film. CONGRATS CLASS!!!! WE DID IT! Also I would like to give a special shout out to Jonathan DeBoer. He was the writer for "Ruby Lips".
