Production Blog Entry 3 - Filming

In our previous filming we were unable to get the right shots due to the time we filmed as it was so dark. Therefore today we went out and filmed some establishing shots for the first section of our opening sequence. We were able to get to the location at the beginning of the day so that it was light enough and that we had enough time to film. 

We found many things to film that would create an eerie setting where the audience would know straight away that this was a horror film and that something bad was going to happen. These things included rotted bikes, barbed wire, small buildings that were also abandoned.

     

This was definately an improvement since the last time we filmed as the scary atmosphere was clearly portrayed and you were able to actually see the filming due to the successful lighting. However, one problem we encountered was the use of characters as we are still finding it hard to timetable our main characters in. Therefore we may have to reconsider our opening sequence as we may run out of time if they still cannot make the filming days.
