Production

Filming Process

Once we finished the preproduction portion, we went straight into filming as soon as we could. Originally we were supposed film from February 22-25 but during those days we were working on getting our blog post done, testing out a editing software, and making branding for this opening scene. Since we didn't get to film during those days so our teacher gave us another week to get our filming done. Within this week on Monday we started filming the easiest shots of library on a (iPhone 11 and iPhone 12) and the natural school lighting since we also had pictures to take on that day, Tuesday we had to submit the branding, then on Wednesday and Thursday we only did some of the shoots me, Zhanae, and Evicka were in since Ja'Niyah wasn't here for those days and on Friday we plan on finishing up the rest of the shoots that were all in. From filming parts of this opening scene, I have learned that by using a phone is just as good as using a camera as long as you know how to use it and get the right angles in order to convey the meaning through the video. For example, in the killer scene we had to make it a low angle shot to make him look more powerful and we had to do a low angle shot since he wasn't that tall. For these shots we didn't use any tutorials since the the equipment/cameras were quit simple to use and me and my group went through different ideas of how these shots should be filmed so it can reflect the conventions of a horror movie.

In this shoot we had to redo it multiple times because we wanted it to look like camera was following her but the video was on time lapse.

In this shot we had to redo it since the video was in slow motion and the angle wasn't exactly how we wanted it

For this video it keep stopping due to me not having any storage so I had to clear it out
