U2-70 : THRILLER PROJECT 2007/8

Real footage

On Tuesday, Steph Daniel and I went and filmed our real footage of our thriller opening. The location of the filming took place at Steph's house. Colette could not make it so we only filmed the two kidnappings.
The first shot was of Steph getting kidnapped and the part leading up to it, which was Steph entering her house. We wanted that because it was a good way to introduce the character. after that, we had a shot of Steph washing the dishes, we wanted two shots from the inside of the house and the outside so using 'The Gaze' it looks as if the kidnapper is watching the victim from the outside. But we could not film from the outside because there was too much natural light which interfered with seeing Steph clearly through the window. So we decided not to do that but instead do the shot from inside and make it seem as if the kidnapper is in the house.
The next shots were of the second kidnapping where I am in a room taking of ear rings. I have my back against the door so it makes me look vulnerable and maybe makes the audience feel vulnerable as well. We had another shot from outside the window so I am being viewed from the outside again making it seem as if the kidnapper is outside the window. What is left to film now is the corridor scene, which is a slow pan out and the use of diegetic sound of echoed screams, and heart beats. We decided not to use non-diegetic because we use it to build up the kidnapping scenes but we could change our minds if we need something extra. And the final thing that needs to be filmed is the third kidnapping where Colette is in her bathroom and she sees the reflection of her kidnapper, the bags goes over her head and the screen goes black which is followed by the corridor scene.
