Shoot and editing

Over all the shooting went well but when we got to our location we found out that there wasn't as much light coming in through the small window and that the floor wasn't concrete so we couldn't write on it, so we got a piece of wood and hid it under the mud, it looked exactly like the floor so that was the first problem. We lit more candles so that the extra lighting didn't look artificial, and it worked the lighting looked natural.

                                       This is the room we filmed in(flash on the camera makes it look lighter)

                                                       These shots are from the day
We also realised that we couldn't shoot the snake eyes scene with the contacts in, in that location as our hands were mucky and it'll be dangerous to put contacts in your eyes with dirty hands so we went back to my house and filmed the scene there, yet getting the same light was difficult as my house has more light then the location did as we had candles set up so we found the darkest room and lit a candle so that it looked like the candle in the barn was reflecting on the actors face. The hardest part was definitely putting the contact lenses in as none of us had done it before but we got there in the end.

Editing


During editing we had to choose the best clips from all of the shoots because we had a lot of snake shots and a lot of different shots from the location. We decided to darken most of the snake shots so that they looked more natural and so that no background could be seen. We also darkened and added contrast to some shots. the main problem we realised was the shaking on some of the shots from the location, we stabilized each shot as much as possible yet there was still shakiness.
