Practice Project

This was our first attempt of filming our opening, which has given us a clear idea of what we need to improve on and include to make our opening more effective.

One problem that we found was the lighting was too bright while filming, which made the footage look washed out and out of focus.  We had initially planned to film at night and so this is what we will do in our final project.

Another problem was that we did not use a very wide range of shots, for example there were hardly any close ups to show the character's emotions and create tension.  This is another thing that we will try to improve on.

Our original plot idea was too basic and so we need to work on this to make the opening more dramatic and scary.  

In conclusion, our practice filming highlighted many alterations that we need to make.
