Copy Cat Scene - Twilight Background Research

Copy cat scene 

 

The acting students and the film and tv students have been put together into groups to make a copy cat scene together. Me, Latoya and Jason have been paired with  Casey and Sophie from the Film and Tv course. We’ve decided to do a scene from Twilight. Twilight is a film about a late teen who moved back to forks America to live with her father. Her stay takes a wonderful turn when she meets the mysterious Edward Cullen who’s also just moved back to town. They both fall head over heels for each other and when Bella finds out Edwards secret about being a bloodsucking vampire, she loves him even more. One reason we picked twilight because it was set in a school so we’d be able to accurately Reenact the scene. Another reason is because all the characters in twilight hold a lot of depth which makes it very interesting for the actors. It’s also great for the filmmakers because it has such  recognisable lighting and camera angles. We’re filming it in the science lab because that’s where the scene is  set in the movie.  We picked this scene because it has a lot of different camera angles that are fun to do and also because it’s a scene that shows a lot of emotion and is quite excitingly challenging for everyone involved. I’m playing Bella Swan who is played by Kristen Stewart in the movie. Kristen was seventeen years old when she got the life-changing lead. She was recognised by the casting team from her movie ‘Into The Wild’. Her character was young and awkward which is a lot like Bella. She was set to star in Twilight  with Robert Pattison who is an English actor from London. He played Edward Cullen who is a self loathing vampire who falls completely in love with Bella. He was 22 when production started making him 5 years older than his young co-star.

Twilight wasn’t the first big movie Mr Pattison had been in. In 2005 Robert appeared  in ‘Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire’ as a main character. He was 19 at the time. He played a wizard named ‘Cedric’ who had a tragic ending, this was a very creditable job to get. Kristen Stewart (Bella) had also starred in movies before twilight. In fact, she starred in her first film when she was just 13 years old! The talented teen lead ‘Catch That Kid’ in 2004 opposite Max Thieriot and Corbin Bleu. Unsurprisingly, that wasn’t The only movie Kristen starred in that year. She played ‘Lila’ in the thriller ‘Undertow’, and would you believe me if I told you she played the main character in another movie in 2004 still at just thirteen. Her unbelievable talent was obviously noticed. The movie is called ‘Speak’ and it’s about a freshman girl who refused to speak after being bullied by her classmates and labelled a ‘rat’ for calling the police at a summer party. However, trying to hide the tear jerking reason she really called the police sent her into a pit of depression that only speaking could get her out of. So both actors are very experienced and are legends in their field.
