Filming session cancelled

We've filmed nearly all our scenes and have edited them in to place. We are now waiting to to film our final scenes for the narrative which we planned to do last Tuesday however due to rain it was cancelled.

Our plans were to film the final scene where Emma was scene leaving in a taxi and leaving her house in a complete mess, which is contrasted with Amy by using match cuts in the video as one scene will be Amy walking made up down the stairs, then cut to Emma also walking down the stairs however she's stumbling from being drunk and her make up and costume is all out of place, and then followed by Emma leaving in a taxi.

Our preferred viewing of this is for the audience to realise that both characters are going to the same event, the cuts in between the characters are to create tension for the audience as the audience has seen Emma increasingly get more angry, upset and drunk through out the narrative. Showing similar activities between them suggest they're going to the same place which inevitably will lead to a climax.

We planned to film outside of our school where students are going in to a prom-like event, Emma will see the couple and we would film the reactions and expressions of all the characters which will me remorse and regret from the couple, and fear from Amy, Emma will be shown as really aggressive. Emma also will be shown shouting and provoking an attack from Amy. We have decided to film two possible endings as we cannot decided which one will be best.

One ending is that the final cut for the scene will show the three in a silent awkwardness showing the signs of their emotions as we wern't sure whether its suitable to show  a proper revenge as our style model for the artist is Taylor Swift its rather unconventional for her to show such aggressive acts as she is a role model. However this song differs from her typical songs and shows a darker side to her which we've already explored through the drinking of alcohol which is absent from her other videos. In which case we would end of a climax of her lunging at Amy, but not progress it further to see the actual revenge.
