LILY- Filming Our Main Task- Problems and Rough Edits

Part of the filming for our main task involved a scene when Hannah was running outside.
As our genre was horror we wanted to set this scene as it was getting dark, to add to the scariness and tension of the situation.

  • However one problem with this was the timing of the filming. 
  • It got dark very quickly, to we had to film before it was too dark to see. 
  • It was also have been very difficult to film on two different days as it may have been slightly lighter/darker on one day compared to the other. 
  • Therefore we had to be very quick and time efficient in getting all our shots.
  • We had approximately 20 minutes to get all the running shots we needed.
For example the first time I tried to shoot the scene, I used another friend Hannah R, but it was much too light, so the shots did not have the scary atmosphere intended:






Our other major problem was the shots being shakey or wonky.

  • Some of our shots were intended to look like this, as they where meant to be from the handheld perspective of a stalker. 
  • However after thinking we had almost coming to what we thought was our final draft, we where given the feedback we needed to have some better, more professional looking shot.
  • So we filmed the classroom scene, using a tripod.
