Filming 2

The next scenes that we planned to film were the scripted conversations between the 2 females (Naomi and Becky) and the 2nd male (Dan) on the webcam, which eventually leads to them getting killed.

For this we used the location of my house and computer. Over the weekend we took home the nessersary equipment and started filming the scenes. They were all successful but the lighting that we used was not fitting for the horror film codes and conventions, they were too bright and well lighted. We needed them to be darker and more spooky for them to be fitting with the genre and effective. Due to this we refilmed these scenes.

We added in a match on action to the sequence and so it was very important that we filmed this correctly in order for it to work when edited and be recognised by the viewing audience. As the killer was not there for the filming of these scenes we improvised for the killing of Becky by simply putting on the killers costume of a big black coat and leather gloves and carrying on with the killing scene. We were able to do this effectivly because the scene did not consist of the killer being very visable to the audience and so it was done successfully.
Next we batched all of the recorded scenes onto the computer and started to edit them into the way that we wanted them to look. We did this by adding effects which would make the bullying scenes appropriate and also effective to the audience and the film sequence.
