1940s on screen

Costume choices and passenger movement should be tried together, particularly where the shot needs the same entrance or exit repeated for several camera positions. Photographs of the intended place and period are more useful than a single familiar image when choosing the mix of traffic for a street sequence. A forties setting needs a clear story date, since everyday street detail should be researched for the scene rather than borrowed from a general period mood.

Possible roles in a production

Weather can change the plan for an open-top scene, making a covered alternative worth discussing before the crew commits to the outdoor setup. Hair, hats and loose costume details should be rehearsed for open-top action, especially when performers need to repeat the same look between camera angles. For dialogue beside an American car, the action can remain small and ordinary, with greetings or loaded belongings giving the vehicle its reason to be there.
