Filming






When filming we decided to dedicate a whole day to shooting the scenes which will feature in the start of our film. This was easily done as the 2 minute horror opening only contained a maximum of 3 scenes, 2 of which speech was not required. As we arrived to the location we decided to sit down together and talk through the plans for the day and make sure everyone was comfortable with it all. Here we devised a filming schedule and ran a rehearsal.

Once this was done we walked to the local shop to film the bus stop scene where Rachel sits at the bus stop, awaiting a bus, we would then use this for the flash images at the start accompanied by a heart beat sound. After filming the bus stop scene, we headed back to the factory and located ourseleves in a room near the main shooting area to prepare for filming. While in the room, Georgie was doing Rachels makeup, and Jade was arranging pictures on a wall to use as the male leads stalker board. Once the stalker board was done Jade then filmed the male leads snippet of him becoming obsessed with attacking Rachel, this was done in and around the factory grounds.

Once all the short snippet scenes were filmed, the costumes were on, the makeup was done,the cast were prepared with their lines and had completed a final rehearsal, it was time to start filming the main scene.

When filming the scene we decided to shoot it all as many times as possible to get as many camera angles as we could. As we were progressing through the filming, both the cast and crew thought up some new ideas and props to add to the scene, for example the use of cable ties around Rachels hands, and when Rachel spits in the males face.

All in all, we feel the day was very succsesful, with everyone working as a team, having fun, and working hard. We couldnt have asked for a better
group of people to work with.
