Finding Akira un conscious, Kendra does a quick scene survey, checks Akira, does a head tilt, chin lift, nose pinch and airtight mouth seal and starts only mouth to mouth resuscitation (without chest compression) (five breaths at a time). Kendra demonstrates a full CPR emergency scene from beginning to end, after calling 911, on Akira. This is mostly 15:5 compressions to breaths, but is intermixed with moments of prolonged rescue breathing only while Akira is semi conscious, the police on the line having explained to Kendra that it is sometimes necessary to ventilate a casualty who is struggling to breathe when compressions are not necessary. She does this for a few cycles of five breaths, breathing check, five breaths, breathing check etc while Akira is un concious for the first few minutes. Akira regains semi consciousness for a short moment- then falls back under the twilight. Notes: - avoid hair of any actor obstructing or blocking any of the views of any rescue breathing or any other action - the views must be full and clear. - rescue breathing cheeks puffed out for the rescuer and rescued; - proper head tilt, chin lift, jaw grip and jaw thrust, tight nose pinch and airtight mouth to mouth seal; - for chest compressions, extremely straight arms and interlocked hands & fingers; - proper locating of hands' position on the chest; - rescue breathing and compressions to be audible and clear wherever possible; - watching and checking for chest rise wherever possible; - the chest should inflate realistically but not excessively - just as it would realistically during normal CPR. - various camera angles and close ups from both sides of actors; also from the feet looking upwards; from the head looking downwards; from various points of view that work best for this sort of scenario including plenty of focus on the rescue breathing.
