Filming

In the holidays we all met at the factory to film. It was the perfect morning as there was fog everywhere, this created an eery depressing atmosphere. We used Beths Dad as a paramedic and Connors friend as one of the body dumpers. The problems with filming on that day was that there were a number of cars driving around in the background, this was very irratating as there is no way any one would dump a body in sight of someone else. To resolve this issue I will change the brightness and contrast so that you cannot see the background well, it will also bring the focus to whats happeneing in the scene. We also accidently dropped the weights inside our body bag into the river (the weights were used to make it look heavy).

We found a new location for the body bag to wash up on that wasn't really difficult to get to. We had originally planned for the bag to be found on some grass under a bridge at the end of the river, but when we went there we realised we would have to cross the river to get to the grass. We went along the river to find another place for it to be found, this is when we saw some steps leading down to a collection of weeds and reeds in the water. The steps were next to an overgrown bank. We asked Beths Dad to stand on the hill and pull the bag up from the reeds, this looked really good on camera. Now we're all back to school we will be editing on the Macs, we may need to re-do shots if they do not look professional.
