what we would be filming.
• I chose to deconstruct Megan’s which was an idea of analysing the

• The clothes we would have to wear would be glamorous
ones, however we would have to look fake through extravagant
make up.
• Body language was crucial, we had to look up front and not afraid of
the camera and try to do what we had planned.
• Simple background’s were needed to show just us on the green
screen talking, the colour would change due to the sex of the
character.
