 RECORDING DAY:

After the casting we went straight into recording the running scenes but at this point of the film we were un aware of where the script was so we began to freestyle the different shots and camera angles. The first shot taken was a master shot to show the main character running across the frame.This shot was able to be done in one take so due there being a time limit we immediately went to the next shot. The next shot  was a long shot with a gradual zoom in on the victim running. 


After that we just kept recording the victim from different angles and finally started recording the Killers scenes.


The killers scenes were shot at dutch angles and extreme closeups at different parts of his body to keep his identity hidden. 

We started at just recording his feet to recording his fingers and eventually having his whole head in the shot but only with a mask on.

The last few scenes of the killer were just his shadow and below the waist shots to show his attire.

But in the shadow you can see him taking off his mask and the victim getting excited. But he still ends up taking her life. 

Without having a script we were able to make more creative angles that weren't even thought of before the film but ended up looking better than whatever we originally planned

In conclusion, this is all we recorded on that day

Editing: CLIP LENGTH

 One of the things that re surfaced my brain while editing was the effect of clip length. Earlier in the year we learned how clip length can effect the audiences feelings. Longer clips were more prosperous and calm whereas shorter clips created a sense of anxiety.  After remembering this I ensured that the ending where the main character realizes her state of distress would have shorter clips combined into a montage of her trying to escape. I did this by using straight cuts and short clips with changes of perspective. As stated previously the scenes were shot repetitively in different angles for me to choose while editing. But rather than choosing I just incorporated almost all of them to create a state of anxiety within the audience. This was the end product.... Implementing the shot of the "Mother" tapping her fingers on the table and then a dutch angle view of the clock symbolizes that the main character is running out of time. This is shown in the clip right after when sh...

 FINALE - SUMMARY Overall the process of making a film was interesting. We began with a plan that was abruptly changed constantly throughout the film process. My teams creative nature helped us achieve the end goal of a spectacular film in an efficient amount of time. As an actor and editor of the film that didn't limit my role on the team. I had my fair share of participating in everyones role which helped bring the ideal film come to life. But when I had my teams back they had mine. The director made sure everything was completed on time whereas the cinematographer helped by recording hard chess scenes and bringing her vibrant ideas. This collaborative effort helped us develop a great film with deep meaning. Our film was originally going to be about a competition for a job position but that changed into a horror/drama on a woman being killed by her lover. As the chess game goes on the victim keeps making bad moves referencing back to her bad decisions in real life.  The film...
