Make up artist Annetje Capitain preparing Carlijn foor the photoshoot.

Before we start shooting this film on the Red One camera, we had to make some still pictures wich will be used in the film.

We did not only used the 5D mark II but also a small canon consumer camera with a flash. We made consumer like pictures with it and they will used on the edges from the mirror, when we are shooting the film.

We had a lot of fun that day, changing clothes all the time and trying to make reallife  pictures of two lovers on different holidays.

 All that kind of photo's where shot with a white background so that we  could replacet the white later in photoshop (done by Roy Jacobs, our writer/ director)for another scenery, like mountains, beach or any place in the world. The consumer flash helps us to make it more real and wil cover up the matte mask we have to make for the new background. So we also did not have to worry about the light conditions of the replaced backgrounds. You understand, these pictures will be only visible in the movie.

Carlijn.........

This weekend I will shoot some HD footage with my  5D still camera. This moving pictures will be used as a special effect in our film. The 5D has a frame rate of 30fps and that could be a problem with the sound. We shoot the film in 25p with the Red One and the 5D footage will only be used as a background. So we luckely don't have to use the sinc sound of the 5D.We slomo the 5D footage down to 25P.

Soon more about the sneaky shooting I have to make with this still camera. Tell you next time about the aspect ratio we going to film in and the diffulculty's of shooting greensreen shots in a (small white) bathroom.
