I originally got a Dancer Grace who I had successfully worked with before to agreed to be my body double for the dance section of Separation. However due to personal circumstances she is no longer available to attend the filming days. I considered changing these dates so I could keep her in the piece but due to her availability being limited this seemed like it could happen again so instead I moved forward and reached out to a few local actors and dancers I knew and had worked with previously so was confident in to see if any of them would be interested in taking part.
I had interest from a few people however I have chosen to go with Molly as she was available for my main filming date and was very keen to be a part of the piece. I have worked with her prior and she is reliable and skilled, working hard on set, so I was more than happy to have her now involved.
Due to a few issues with her university timetable since she agreed I am working on getting the Pre-light for Monday the 5th to happen later in the day/evening so she can attend the full time and we are also looking into possibly having a rehearsal before the shoot to experiment even further at what she is able to do with her body. We will then be filming the entirety of her section on Thursday 22nd across one long day rather than partly on Friday too. This is due to her not being available Friday but this works as the shot list will be refined before shoot and therefore all her shots will fit into one day and the Friday is just a back up day to film macro shots of my body features etc if needed.
I am very happy I now have this problem sorted, and I know what I need to do before shooting to make sure everything runs smoothly.
