Editing: Final Changes & Filming Day Three

When showing our film to our classmate we continually received questions regarding what happened to the second character. It was clear that we were achieving the correct sense of enigma, as our plot appeared to confuse the audience more than intrigue them. Therefore we set up one extra day of filming. We did not include our actresses in this filming process as it would only take us a short amount of time to achieve. On this day we filmed a few varying shots in which a knife is dropped from a bloody hand.


We used false blood and a kitchen knife as props in this scene. By doing this we were able to make it clear what happened to the second character, whilst still maintaining a sense of enigma as to whether the main character did this and if so why. We shot close up shots of the knife being dropped and the hand trembling, along with a close up of the knife on the floor and a POV shot of the bloody hand.
We filmed the scene in the evening so that there was a sense of this event taking place secretly at night. It also will contrast the bright colours of the other memories. We also used brighter back lighting on the hand to suggest that the girls holding the knife is leaving a house.
These shots are to be combined in a fast paced montage of memories of our main character. These images will flash quickly and randomly throughout the montage in order to startle the audience.
