Filming Our Sequence: Part 1

To film our sequence, we had to go to the set location we selected prior to filming. We decided, since we were doing the horror/slasher genre we would want a desolate location - the woods. Before going off to our location, we made sure we had all the equipment and had a plan of what we were going to do and how we were going to do it.

Once we got to our location, we had to select a suitable location in the woods that would fit our imagination of our woods. We selected a location that was not over crowded by trees, and had a decent amount of walking space. Since Lucy was in charge of location, she had the final decision where we started filming. Kate set up the positioning of the camera, and decided where people should enter and leave and the different camera angles, whereas I, being the director, oversaw these decisions and had to see if the decisions being made where ultimately good enough - which all were and there were no problems.

After picking a location and setting up the camera, we had to begin filming our sequence. Since we wanted to make sure we had everything, we made sure we had multiple shots of each incase we decided the shot we had wasn't good enough. Once we finished getting each shot we needed, we quickly browsed over the clips we have to make sure we had what we needed. We then decided everything was okay and begun to think about editing the shots.
