Production Diary 3

So today i came up with a quick scene which i think would be great for our trailer in which a person walks through the park and is being followed by the killer. Before meeting up with the Gideon and Hayley, i came to Parliament Hill during lunch and found a pathway in which both the left side and right side had bushes and trees as if it was enchanted, i felt that this will be a perfect place to shoot the scene. I went back to my group and collected the camera and we came to the place and filmed for an hour as i wanted to make every scene count. As i went back to check the footages, 3 out of the 10 was definitely going to be used.

Next lesson the group decided to film shots in the void. I was not available at the time as i was late however i used the time to edit whilst Hayley, Gideon and our teacher filmed. Whilst i was editing i came across a few issues one of them being that what we filmed for the opening scene in Barking would not look good as the opening sequence and so i have talked to my group to see if they agree which they have and i am thinking of another opening scene that would be as strong as the one we had.

Group Planning: Basics of creating a poster

Hayley has looked at different posters and this is a rough sketch on what she would like to create for the poster. I helped her in this task in which we discussed what could be the main image and where the title should be placed and the size of it.

As we are going to be creating a cross promotional package, I have looked at what to include in a poster or magazine cover. All horror posters include a title, image and indication of release date which we will include in our poster.  This rough sketch of our trailer poster indicates where we will be placing these elements. Having the font in the middle of the poster with large text makes it easy for audiences to read and identify. A large picture of the main character adds a sinister tone the poster overall emphasised by the black clothing which connotates death. We have also added 'coming soon' into the poster to tell audiences that the film has not been released yet.

Make up for the Killer

These images show you the make up we used to show the killer disfigurement. As many killers in horror slasher movies have some sort of scar or are covered up with a mask we felt that it was only right to do the same with our killer. Sevgi, a member of my group, brought wax and some colour paint to make sure that the scar can be seen when we film.
