Twelfth Filming - Extra shooting in classroom

Due to Alice dying her hair, we needed to re-shoot the classroom scene. As we did not have a lot of time, we decided that we only wanted to film Alice and the teacher. This meant that we could use close up shots to show the expression of each character instead of using a whole class.
Firstly we filmed Alice. Shown below are various shots of her. Before filming her reaction shot to the teacher, we filmed Alice struggling with work. This would allow the viewer to appreciate why Mrs McKenna is shouting at her (her work is not good enough).
Establishing shot of Alice doing work:
Mid-shot with paper:

Mid-shot without paper:

Close up of Alice's reaction to Mrs McKenna:

Extreme close up of Alice's reaction:


(both of the videos above are very effective as Alice's expression can successfully show her disappointment with her bad work which can then relate to her expressions in the bathroom).
We then decided to shoot Mrs McKenna from a couple of different ways. We ensured to use a worms eye view to promote her dominance over Alice.
