First day filming

On Tuesday the 23rd of February we began the process of filming our thriller piece. We were met with several challenges throughout the day mostly to do with the lighting and camera angles we were gonna use on location. As we were mostly filming outside we had to make sure that the naturalistic lighting in our shots matched the sadistic tone to our film. To overcome this we decided to film later on in the day so we could use the shadows created by the sun on the trees to give our film a spookier feel to it.

The setting of the church gave us the perfect background for our film. We were not given permission to actually shoot inside the church but instead we used the surrounding grave yard with back the  drop of the church. The effective part of this is that the church is not the focal point for the viewer and only is there to heighten the feeling of suspense for the audience.
