Filming Week 2

This week we focused on getting shots from the perspective of the car that follows me throughout the opening.
This shot shows the car from a side view. We took this shot to see how we wanted to show the audience the car following behind me as I ran. This was also a difficult shot as keeping up with the pace of the car was hard.
This is a POV shot from the perspective of the murderer. We felt this shot would add to the suspense as it is an interesting way to show the audience the killer watching but still alienates them from seeing the killer.

Filming Week 1

This week my group did our practice run for our film. We took some practice shots in order to see what shots would work best for conveying what we wanted to show through our film, with a focus on suspense.  This is from a shot of me running from the beginning of the opening. The shot follows me as I run past the camera. This gives the audience the feeling that I am being watched which adds to the suspense. While the shot worked fine, we found it was a little difficult to film, so we decided the camera moving alongside me would be better. This shot shows my dead body from the end of the opening. We decided a high angle shot would work best as it would show the viewers my whole body. However, we noticed it was difficult to get the shot as the high angle made filming my whole body difficult from the horizontal angle.

This week we began editing our film opening. After we uploaded the footage to Adobe Premiere Pro, we started by cutting our film. All of our videos had tons of extra footage of pauses, and us yelling cut, these needed to be edited out along with any other dead footage. We also lowered the exposure of the video to add to the suspense, but this had an inverse effect of increasing the volume. We also began adding in the music that plays through my headphones throughout the opening.
