Transcript

00:00 What's your involvement been in the new Barbie film?

00:06 I was cast and filmed for the new Barbie film last year, which is written and directed by

00:12 Greta Gerwig and stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.

00:18 What was it like?

00:19 Well, everything was pink. The way they recreated Barbie land was really impressive. I was in

00:27 awe when I saw the parts of the set which resemble the Barbie dream house. They seemed

00:32 to have really thought of everything. It was very surreal. I feel so lucky to have been

00:38 a tiny part of such a huge production.

00:44 What roles did you play? Where did you film?

00:48 I played the role of a young girl playing with a Barbie doll in her living room with

00:52 her brother who was playing with a Ken. I filmed at one of the studios down in Leavesden

00:59 where so many famous productions have been filmed like Harry Potter and House of the

01:05 Dragon.

01:06 What have been your best moments from the experience?

01:12 There was so many amazing moments during filming. Like most little girls, I used to play with

01:19 Barbies so obviously seeing the different sets in real life was fascinating. I also

01:26 saw Margot Robbie driving her personalised Barbie golf buggy to set one day, which I

01:32 will never forget. It was also really interesting how detailed filming was. Each Barbie and

01:40 Ken doll even had their own hair and makeup artist. It was definitely an experience I

01:46 I'll never forget.
