The Devil's in the Details

This was our first-day filming and we really focused on testing shots for the first part of our scene and getting as many shots of my walls and props as possible. We made sure to focus on the little details. 

 We made sure to get consent to use my friend's pictures for the shrine of Alyssa.
Shrine! 

Choosing the pictures of scarlet from memories was fairly simple. I have been friends with her for a while so I have A LOT of pictures with her. It just looks crazy when you put them all together at the same time. The scrapbooks were actual gifts from Scarlet and I just changed the names to fit. This helps add to the obsession. The dried flowers also signify that this has been an ongoing obsession for a very long time. There are many polaroids and pictures around, a little stuffed animal, and just overall many things that show she's really in love.  

 
We carefully selected books we wanted in the frame and meticulously selected small details to include in the shrine. Things such as concert tickets, amusement park and fair passes, and notes from Sarah to Melanie were added to the shrine. 
Changed the phone case to include details since it would be in the shot. A picture with Scarlet, a hand-made gum wrapper heart, and a fortune that reads "Love because it is the only true adventure". These items add to Melanie's love for Alyssa and the lengths she'll go to for this "adventure".
