Report -Clickview filming

On Friday the 26th of August, a professional film production company came to Northcote High School to film their new short film, which is soon to be published on ClickView. The filming was organised to occur the previous week however due to the poor weather condition it was rescheduled. The short film is about social media, regarding how it can affect our self-esteem and influence the decisions we choose to make. The director Nathan along with multiple producers and the crew were seeking a small amount of extras to help out both on and off screen. A handful of students, both boys and girls varying in ages, who study either media or drama were chosen to help out. Jobs on screen included creating little backstories with friends whilst acting as part of the background within certain shots of the film, along with a small amount of dialogue in one scene. Jobs off screen included helping out the crew with lighting, sound, and also helping the director begin each scene with the slate. Whilst on breaks, the students from Northcote High engaged in conversations not only with the producers and technical crew, but also with the actors who had been casted outside of Northcote High School. They were all very happy to give us all advice on how to improve our skills and do well in future auditions. Overall, it was not only a very enjoyable day but also a great experience in which we all gained knowledge from. Thankyou to Miss.Tripp and Miss.Diamond for helping the students throughout the day.
