And so it begins....

So today was our first proper lesson looking at what sort of horror films we would like to be doing. Me, Amber, and Abby decided that we would like to be doing a Ritual/Possession film, sort of like the Blair Witch Project. 

Last lesson we started looking at some of the different editing techniques we might want to use on our video. We decided that some of the different effects we may use, but things like fog and mist, can be created naturally by filming early one winter morning. 

We brainstormed the different key conventions used in typical horror films as well as ones in the same style of the film that we're doing to give us ideas as to what would and wouldn't work if we tried to use them in our film.

We sat and discussed different locations where we could shoot part of our horror film, and decided that some woods in Bakersfield would be good!! We think that they would look quite creepy, and that its the sort of place that a bunch of teenagers would like to go camping and partying! Good setting for a horror we think! (:
