Re-Shooting

After reviewing our footage we believe that there are some fundamental pieces of filming that we missed and so the film ios very difficult for a viewer to understand. Also, we are not happy with the length of our starting scene, and the variety of shots in these opening scenes was poor. Our character is seen to be running but there is no clear reason why, and with the long shots it is difficult to see the anxiousness of the character. As we believe that our storyline is good we are reluctant to chnage our story, but the shots used to portray our story could be changed. To develop this scene we want to move this running all to a point of view shot, so that is very easy for the viwer to realise the anxiousness of the character, and can also be seen as desperation with the addition of heavy breathing. This way you could also get establishing shots of the area.

We also need to shoot our final location for the thriller. The location is an abandoned concrete building and we were not able to film in this location on our first day due to the not having our photo's taken and printed on polaroid camera print paper. Here we want our main character to wake up and not understand why he is there and how he got there. With the polaroid pictures hanging along the the ceiling of the building and when our character looks upon them it will induce a flashback where we will edit in our previous footage with a black and white effect to give the feeling of the event being in the past. When the flashback ends the character will be seen to be panicing and disorientated, and also desperate. This will happen three times with all three flashbacks with the angle of the shot beoming higher and higher to give the feeling of the character becoming more and more vulnerable.
