First filming location.

I begun filming today; my first location was the slightly dingy girls toilets in the south block of my school. I wanted to film with in the school to reinforce the pressures that occur in the school environment. This particular loo has no windows and no mirrors, this emphasises the isolation felt by the young lady.

 

The colour scheme is blue and yellow, both primary colours, however the actual décor is crumbling and of extreme lack of attention. This represents the fact that when you're in a school you're surrounded by bright colours because they're supposed to evoke creation and happiness, its something we all associate with our time at school. However this girl is clearly going through something very adult, she's having to make big decisions in her life. The crumbling and decapitation of the walls and paint mimics her mental state and the fact that the school can no longer provide her with the safe, happy environment that it could once when she first joined in year 7.
