Shooting the film opening (2 out of 2)

On the 28th of February, my group filmed the dead bodies' scene for our film opening. We met up early around 11am to 12am midday so that the lighting would be adequate and so that we would have plenty of time to setup our shots.

We began with a shot of the main three characters (myself, Sophie, Freya: i.e Blake, Lilith, Thana) running through the woods to suggest they are running from something. During this scene, it would be a 1st person, handheld shot that looks blurry and intense on-camera; a perfect way to start a Thriller with action and enigmas.

We then moved on to the dead bodies scene which would follow the running scene. A fade would be the preferred transition between these shots. We used ketchup for a fake blood effect on our T-shirts, and used lilies spread around our bodies for a sign or suggestion of innocence.
