blog post 46 Production: Filming Photos

 This is Lily, we took this to show the make up effect, bruise. 

Picuture of us recording our main character taking out knife, ready to kill his victim, the shot we used was a mid hot of his elbow to his thigh, making sure you can see the knife.

In this picture, we show one of the shots we recorded. This shot was a close up on the murderer cleaning the bloody knife in the sink.

In these two pictures it shows Omara recording the last shot of the rough cut which was the main character closing the book.

These two pictures show the make up effect done by Maria and Omara, this shows the audience that the victim has been badly hurt.

blog post 48 Production: Editing

What we have learned

• A majority of the footage is cut, and significantly shortened 
• The placement of shots and duration plays a key role
• The addition of non-diegetic sound can completely alter the mood/feel of a shot 
• Sound can influence the flow and progression of a sequence (e.g. build tension, resolve tension, characterise, etc.)
• How to use filters/colouration effects to correct and enhance clips, for example luma-curve effect.
• We learned how to cut part of the shot, for example cut the top of the shot as it didnt look good with that part.

Production: Photos of Props

These are some of the props that were used during the filming of the title sequence. We tried using props that would set the scene of a horror genre, e.g hair that has been cut from the victim, this gives the audience a sence of creepiness and mystery. The black briefcase shows that the character is a business man in his day time lifestyle not just a murderer.

blog post 48 Production: Editing Photos

During the editing process, we learnt how to successfully add titles into the rough cut. Also we managed to follow the conventions of a horror film through adding filters to make the shots darker, which creates a sinister tone to the sequence, as well as the font we used for the credits.
