Post #18 Final Touches

 

As the final due date for our film is rising up, it time for our last day of filming. The Wednesday before spring break was our last day of filming. We finished all our clips, and redid the ones we were unsure about.

 At the end of our film it consists of the only survivor seeing the stalker/killer. Which in this case the only survivor is myself. To really get that horror intense atmosphere we had to include a scream. At the time I was sick with a raspy voice, so we concluded to let Emily be my background scream. It actually really fit well with my clip and is not visible to anyone that it wasn't my scream. Since this was a public park, it was a bit embarrassing having to do this specific clip   since people kept looking at us after each scream. After this was done, we watched over all the clips to make sure everything was perfect. We noticed that the part where we show the stalker was it a bit blurry, so we redid that. thankfully, we had the black hoodie and black sweatpants to refilm . We used these dark color baggy clothing to really make the stalker stand out, and uphold a convention. In many horror films the killer is usually in dark clothing, and face is hidden. Just like our film. As you may have noticed, throughout or film as Emily, Kevin, and Obed get killed it consists of a convention. For example in many films when someone is running away from another person, they always trip. To uphold this convention we had Emily trip, leading to her getting killed. I think this way a great way to really use a convention in a "proper" way. Also The killer was a male, just like many other movies. These small details really help our film fit into a horror genre. We are still continuing to add final details before we submit our final film.

 Stay tuned!
