Blog Post #11- Lookalike plan

For my lookalike idea I did a decent job at finding the right match. However, I need to come up with a plan in order to make one of my flashback characters younger or older. To do this, I plan to use makeup to make Sophia look younger than she is. Sophia is older meaning that she is more cooperative and has more patience. Sophia has been using makeup since she was young so I trust that she will be able to create this makeup look to allow her to look younger. But if she can not my backup plan is to get her older sister, Olivia, to help with the makeup.

                                   

Another slight problem with my flashback idea is that my younger protagonist is five years old.    

                                                                        

Amelia being five years old is not necessarily a bad thing. She just is not fully mature. I have tried using her for past media studies assignments before and she would throw a fit due to the fact that she did not want to be in it. That was a year ago so maybe her opinion on it has changed. So now, I am going to have to do it on a good day where she is in a good mood. To prepare, my backup plan is to either find a new, younger protagonist or just cut out the whole flashback idea in general. 

Since I do not begin filming for a couple weeks I am not too worried about it. This also gives me more time to think about what I can do if my plan does not workout.
