Girl, Interrupted Video

The backstage video of a photoshoot, 'Girl Interrupted' which took place in Summerhall, the former Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, in Edinburgh in November 2012.

Photos were taken by Aleksandra Kocela.

MY ROLE

I directed, filmed and edited the piece. I had a pre-production meeting with the photographer who wanted to ensure a natural feel to the production, but also wanted something different from all the other backstage videos. It gave me an opportunity to experiment with tints, split screens and typography, and I also managed to source a Moby soundtrack for free. The footage aims to tell the story of the day of the shoot, it's reportage format, illustrating the work of everyone involved in the process, it is also a piece which can standalone from the main photographic shoot.
