Thriller rough shots (first day of filming)

This was our first day of filming our test footage in the "stalking" scene of our opening.

The purpose of these shots is to help us decide upon the most effective use of filming
E.g - setting, costume, props, and camera angles.

Costume

As we are trying to create a safe and happy mise en scene in this footage, we felt that a more extreme use of costume would be effective. E.g - bright feminine, colors, stripy socks, Tutu, sparkly make up.

We had created a good atmosphere to film in by choosing to film in the center of bustling town on a bright afternoon. Helping us to develop our safe and happy mise en scene. We also decided to film the two girls wandering into evolution as it was a fairly bright and colorful shop and aided with our feminen mise en scene.

Although the busy town center helped to aid our mise en scene we often had problems with public obstructing our shots. To avoid this problem we might have to make our selves completly aware of passers by in the area.

As we were trying to create a sense of the two girls in our shot being watched, we filmed shots from behind objects like trees,lamp posts. We used a Newspaper in one shot to help give a sense of sombody following and watching the two characters.

We felt this shot worked rather well,however more accurate filming is requried to maxamise the effectiveness of this shot.

We felt simular to our bridge shot. The camera needs to be placed at a higher level for the audience to clearly notice it as a bridge.

We filmed one shot of our stalker capturing pictures of the two girls. We felt this shot needs to be made alot clearer for it to have any real effect. As it is very difficult to notice the camera in his hand.
