Film day: PART 2

So on Friday we wrapped up warm and headed out in the minus conditions to capture our much needed still shots. We needed to re-capture some stills of Hillys as when we shot them beforehand they suffered from shaky hand! We also needed many more shots to complete our opening credits. We used Kelly's amazing Canon again and was amazed by the quality of shots.
We also relived Janadhi's adventure of hell!

Editing vlog

Vlog on editing! We've just began the long and frustrating journey regarding the editing process so just a little catchup of everything we've done so far and any alternations up to date.

Kelly get you're unlimited card at the ready.
 (This specific scene in the movie literally made my insides scream- It look terrifyingly amazing!)

Snap of editing process

Here's a quick clip from our two minute opening. I think the contrast of colours work really well; the green grass compared to her crisp white dress creates a really creepy and ghostly atmosphere; especially when she stops and pauses.

Editing must commence!

Editing has began! It has become apparent this is going to take a hell of a lot longer than we ever anticipated. What i've attempted to do today, is change the exposure, saturation and brightness on the 'empty' shots to give the impression that Keeley has 'disappeared,' we found that when leaving the 'empty' shots at the same colouring it did not achieve a professional look, and more like something edited on a smart-phone rather than iMovie. using the contrasted colours on a quick pace lead to a more super 8/black and white style of film, adding to the suspense that a horror movie should hold.

Major inspiration- Woman in black,

The opening scene for 'For the woman in black' stands as our main platform for inspiration. The three little girls in dresses playing with their dolls; we even fell in love with the song (tea for three plus one by Marco Beltrami)
It's so creepy! and the shrieking of the mother at the end just makes my insides curdle- absolutely brilliant.

Annabelle. [Retch]

One major recent film inspiration for our group is the movie Annabelle, it's plot; based on a possessed doll poses many features we would want to convey in our opening. Something i picked up on whilst watching was the excessive amounts of close up shots of the doll, this produced an uncertain and uncomfortable sensation for the audience as there was anticipation whether the doll would 'blink' or as such, because of this we've tried to include as many close up shots of our doll in order to cause a similar effect.
