G321 - Day 3 - (Set and Props)

On the 3rd day of filming we had both Cat and Sam together on their date.

Before we dressed the room to look like a restaurant:


We began creating a restaurant table in front of the floral wallpaper by putting an appropriately sized table (for 2 people), putting a white cloth over the top of it and then dressing the table with cutlery and other items you would find on a restaurant table when you first arrive.

We included wine glasses and breadsticks ,because there is often a basket of bread or something to 'nibble' on before your order arrives.

The candle creates a more romantic atmosphere on their date. But after this picture was taken we changed the candles to 3 small tea light candles as they were less prominent and didn't take over the table.We also included extra cutlery to create a more realistic restaurant.

We made a menu for our restaurant. We named it Chester's Palace and inside we listed different courses and meals in a style that created a convincing menu.

We did come across the issue of lighting as it was supposed to look as though it was the evening but the lighting was too bright and natural. To fix this we closed all the blinds and covered any windows that did not have a blind to close. This meant we had complete control over the lighting and the mood we wished to create.
