Editing 1

Editing started with the usual waiting for the images to letterbox, which as always took a good part of an hour. Unfortunatly though disaster struck as I realised I was going to have to reshoot because the rest of my footage had refused to letter box. The next shooting was scheduled a week later in a forest setting.

First Day Of Filming

The first scene I shot was the "Churchyard" scene. This scene is vital to the characteristics of the genre of trailer I'm creating. My main character Bryony and "Behind the Scenes" camera girl Sofie (Also a main character, the dead girl.) also assisted me. I took short takes of Bryony standing behind a gate, looking terrified. The camera zoomed closer and closer to her face, so that the shots would look like flashes toward her. This technique is often used in horror trailers. The whole scene took about 2 hours to shoot, but was a great successs as I got alot done.
