Filming, Step 1 - Removing Existing Make-Up

Because we filmed after school, we obviously had to remove any existing make-up Liv had on to get a natural look. The natural look was then used whilst lip syncing, this was inspired by Natasha Bedingfield's 'I Bruise Easily'. Originally we were going to have wearing eye make-up but we wondered what it would be like without eye make-up because it makes a person look really different with no mascara on. Liv then removed one eyes make-up so we compared it to the other eye and decided it looked a lot more effective to have no make-up at all. Also, when a girl has no eye make-up it makes her eyes look more puffy, which we found effective as she is crying in the video.

When Liv removed all of ther make-up she was then very concious of how she looked and her skin condition/tone so we then suggested a bit of foundation/concealer to make her look less pale and blemished. What music video has women or even men not wearing a tiny bit of make-up to make them look better?? Liv then took her hair out of a pony tail and put it behind it shoulders for filming, we felt this looked natural. Because we were going for a more natural look, me and Laura told Liv to wear a strapless top so when filming her singing at a shoulder shot, we would see bare skin, this looked really good and effective when filming.


This is what Liv looked like for our shots of her lip syncing into the camera looking natural:
