Weekly Update

Monday 22nd November 2010

Today, we filmed the new shot with Stacey panicking to open the door for the janitor's closet and backing away in distress using a steadi-cam. Lighting was a variable that was difficult to control as the slightest movement of the camera often caused the shot to lack lighting and become dark. After moving the lighting about several times, we achieved a position that works best for the shot. In terms of the shot with Stacey panicking to open the door, we used the steadi-cam to help build tension and suggest the character is feeling anxious. We used a tilt from the handle to the character's face, to show the distress of the character. We also used the steadi-cam to film Stacey moving back slowly, again to build tension and effectively draw audiences in and it was also used to have an emotional effect on audiences.
