Evaluation of 13th filming

---We learned a new way to direct - directors gives suggestion while actors and actress are actually acting or singing. When we were filming Femi singing the song, we told him to be free and passionate, but he dont actually know how to interpret the lyrics. He is busy remembering it instead, so while Kenny is filming, Cybil could concentrate on interpreting the lyrics and shout the decision out to Femi, when he hear it, he will do what we asked, even it did not match the song, we could edit it or fast it.  Almodovar has used this technique while he was directing Volvar, Cybil knew it from the extra of the <volvar>, Penélope Cruz is busing saying out her line at the same time absorbing directions while showing out right face expression, that is great.

---The other way for actors to get into the mood is let them rehearsal, once we were filming the lyrics about"make me wanna die" . We basically told Femi to act it with  painful face, but when hence him singing it three times, he actually kneed on the grass, which is perfect, we move the camera from low angle to high angle, perfectly fit the need to make him looks vulnerable. The improvisition is reliable and creative.

---How to distrabute everyone's job is the other thing we need to learn. This time, we tried to make everyone have jobs to do but not wasting it on waiting, we organised to film the scene involved Femi first, and then let him try to remember the lyrics. Secondly, we let Penny has a job, taking pictures while we are filming, so we could use them on the blog. Kenny is in Charge of camera and Cybile is focus on directing. We worked very well.
