After finishing my Specialist Practice Project at the Arts University College at Bournemouth I am continuing this blog to include my Extended Major Project. This is my last project before graduation and is a theoretical project. I am making two costumes based on children's book illustrations by the artist Sarah Gibb. I will be updating my progress each week, with reflections and evaluations throughout. Anything labelled EMP is relevant to my Extended Major Project

Filming in the Studio
This morning the film crew that is making a small documentary about the show came in to film us working on our projects. I found this to be a kind of intense experience. For some reason I was nervous about it, even though I was assured by Rose they wouldn't be asking questions. They mentioned that they really just wanted some shots they could blend into a montage. It was a bit of tight squeeze between all the costume students working and the film crew with their equipment. I also wasn't sure what to work. Since it was right after our second fitting I was just adjusting and marking the alterations which didn't seem all that interesting but I did use the machines and the irons and they were able to film all of that. I think it all went well. I don't think this is a usual happening on a live show but I think if I was working on a film they might want to film people working on every part of the show. I also hope it looked like we were all working very hard. I think sometimes the amount of time that goes into the costumes is under-appreciated but I liked that some of what we do has now been caught on film. I'm excited to see the result before the show starts.
