Halima Mohamed 12Y

For my creative artefact, I have created 9 key frames

by having my actors perform whilst I photographed the
actions. After this, I selected photographs that
represented a chronological sequence for my film,
Behind the veil, and that demonstrated a clear narrative in support of my
script.
