Costumes

Charlie - black boots


black jeans and coat but no rips or tears so it doesn't look like he is suspicious

James - ripped shirt and trousers and really dirty no shoes

Location

We wont to film in a average background and into a creepy room or garage. the reason for this is that it will create thoughts as this place could be anywhere in any ones normal house. We then decided we would do it in my garage (charlie). As i live down a road with many houses down it. When we got to my garage we cleared a space bit left the average things in it so that it gave it an average garage look. Also for our end shot i have a streetlight which makes my garden look orange.

test footage

We were practicing different shot types so when we come to film we don't need to waste time trying different shots. Where the legs are walking across the screen we tried more than one technique. So we did walking along with the camera to show the progression of his movements. Also just standing still and just moving the camera. We found this less effective as walking along with the camera as you don't get the fluent movement. Also tried shaking the camera are selves to get a blurred effect, this did not really work out. So we found for the leg movement walking along with the camera was the best and we will probably use this in are final piece. We practised doing a shot over the shoulder of one person zooming into another this did not go as well and will need to re practise this. The shot where we open the eye of a close up we found quite effective but will still need to perfect it. The way it blurs at the end was not done on purpose put worked out well. Also in our final piece the shots would be darker so we are taking into consideration the fact it will not look as a eary.

animatic

Our animatic is trying to portray a dark and creepy setting. It is really emphasiseing the fear of the unknown. We are tying not to give to much of a story away. We are using different shots and angles to show the victim and the bad guys side. There is also a hiden point in a animatic weather it can be worked out there may be another person watching in the room.

Victim: ripped up shirt, trousers with large whole in and covered in dirt. cloth(gag) for mouth

Timber falls

our group liked this video and were thinking of using some of the ideas from it. The start with the close up of the eyes we found effective as it shows the panic in the eye of person in the shot. Also where the mouth is gagged without showing any other parts of the face to not give to much keeping you in fear of the unknown. Also where the body parts are tied up we would do this but not is such a gruesome as we would not want to be going down the horror route of film, so not blood or serious injuries.
