29th March- Creating Titles.

Today we carried on adding titles into our opening, putting them over different frames with names such as actors names, director and producer. We spaced them out over different frames and by using two different colours (black & white) to create more of a sense of threat.

28th March- Creating Titles

Today as we was happy with the footage we had edited together already we decided to start creating our titles to go in our opening. We decided on a production company name and made a title for it using the program LiveType, we experimented with different effects that made it look like a horror film title. We then started to add actors names over the frames of our opening.

21st March- Editing

Today our group carried on putting a range of shots together in our opening, using a range of extreme close ups and long shots. These shots all go together in a way of showing our character getting ready to go meet her boyfriend, using close up shots showing her putting on make-up and long shots of her getting her jacket on. We also used shots like low angled shots and high angled shots to show a sense of threat and that someone is watching her.

14th March- Editing

Today our group carried on with editing some of our footage together. We used a range of shots and used some transitions to make the beginning of our opening flow better. We also looked at a sound site to see what different types of sound would go with our opening, the site we looked at was FreeSound. We looked at different sounds such as ghostly sounds and sounds that build up tension.

9th March 2011- Uploading new footage

After filming our new footage we uploaded it to our mac that we have been given for our group. We started to piece together some of our footage to see if the different shots flow together. We were happy with the editing and decided that we were going to film some more shots to begin our film with an establishing shot of the house. To also create a sense of threat we are going to film shots of a little girl to create a ghost like feeling.

8th March Looking at footage

We looked at the fotage today and what we have filmed we showed to an audience and there feedback was that it had no direction it looked to like a teen soap. So we sat down as a group and thought of a different direction to head in so we are changing our story slightly and the location is being changed. we are going out in our free lesson tomorrow to refilm the start part of it.

Friday 4th March Uploading

We have all our filming now so i uploaded all of it onto the macs in school ready for editing in our lesson on monday. it took about 20 minutes and altogether was about 11 minutes of footage which is a resonable amount for our 2 minute teen horror film opening.

Friday 25th February Filming 2
