Our second shooting session took place at my house, although originally it was meant to be in Georgina's summer house this wasn't possible because of her schedual.
However this turned out to be a good location to film the shadow scene, as we used a blank back wall of my landing to project the shadows onto. We did this by using a variety of different lamps at different angles to reflect the shadows onto the wall. Me and my Brother acted as the violent shadows because we wanted a male figure to show the difference in size between the larger male and the smaller female, which represented the mans dominance compared to the womans fragile body.
We used a baseball bat as a prop, because it could visibly be noticed on the shadow image and it also gave the scene a more brutal approach as the baseball bat was used as a weapon against the woman.
Once we had compiled all this footage, we edited it together, and we used the violent shadow scenes as quick flashbacks in the childs memory, we also put tiny sections of a single punch for example in slow motion which effectively exaggerated the severity of the domesic abuse.
