Extra argument

Once we'd edited the whole of our sequence, and added music, all we needed to finish was the argument in the part where our protagonist is drinking his beer.
Danielle filmed Ram, and a member from another group, arguing over the "husbands" job loss.
We had more than enough footage, so Ram cut it down in Final Cut Express. She also layered certain parts, to make it sound like the the characters were arguing over each other.

Costume List

We wanted to create the working class look, for Josh, as he was meant to look like he doesn't take care of him self. The first filming session we did went well, so we thought, however, when we watched the footage back, we realised that our protagonist looked too middle to upper class, as he wore a smarter looking jacket and a scarf. This resulted in us filming again. This time we concentrated especially on Josh's working class look. In the end he wore just a plain black jumper, over a plain t-shirt, with scruffy jeans.
The extras i.e. us, and Aaron weren't really in the shots as we were mainly there to add extra voices to the party scene.

Props Used In Our Opening Sequence.

-beer bottles and a wine bottle.
-pillows
-balloons
-Harriet's shoes

We used these props to essentially make our sequence more realistic, as these are the sorts of objects that you would find in any home. The beer bottle was our protagonists main prop, as it showed that he was resorting to alcohol to forget about his broken home life.
The balloons were added to signify a party atmosphere. Even though we only saw a glimpse of one in the corner of one of our shots. The pillows were scattered everywhere to show the state of the house after the party. The pillows also represented our protagonists state of mind, as they were scattered all over the place.
Harriet's shoe was just added to the shots to portray how untidy the house was after the party had taken place.
